That 70's Dance

(First off, I just want to apologize for the poor quality of these photos. I didn't think of taking pictures until we left, and I only had my camera in my purse. And as the whole FAM will tell you, Mom's camera is the WORST. And yes, I know they might have turned out better if I'd turned on the flash, since it was 7pm, outside. Someday, I might learn to be a halfway decent photographer. I'm not there yet. ANYway! I apologize. Cute kids, nonetheless!)


Friday night there was a three-stake 70's dance that Maddie went to with her friends, Savannah and Silas. There was a prize for "best costume" so they went all-out. (They did not win a prize. HowEVER, the girl who did win - whose costume was not nearly as cute as these kids', BTW - INSISTED that Silas' costume was better than hers and gave him the $25 Olive Garden gift card she got as the prize. I think she just thought Silas was cute.)



Maddie and Savannah borrowed costumes from Allyson's stash. Aren't they great?


Silas is wearing (are you ready for this?) Savannah's flare jeans and a red satin-y (I think?) shirt that he found in his own closet! (I told Silas if I never saw him in those jeans again it would be WAY too soon!) Gotta love the afro, too. Little sister, Sophia, also got in on the act.

A fun way to spend a Friday night when you're 14-16.

Ah, My era! Love the 70's look. The wig is great. I mean, I hope it is a wig.

While I'm not anxious to relive the 70's, I must admit Maddie looks great! I hope she and her friends had a fun time :o)

I edited the post to contain prize information. Now you'll have to read the WHOLE thing again to find it... :)

I think what you meant to say was that you knew the pictures would look much more authentic (like right out of the 70s) if you left the flash off to make them look grainy on purpose. :)

Looks like they are ready to boogie woogie.
