Objective: Locate a Court Warming Dress/ Results: We did it!

What can be worse than formal shopping with your 14 year old daughter? Oh yes, formal shopping the day of Court Warming!  Aubree thought on Sunday night that she might go to Court Warming but she would have to see who else was going first.  So on Monday night as the snow is blowing and starting to come down she decided she was definitely going.  Between work and the 15 inches of snow we weren't able to go until today.  We went to three different stores and she tried on at least 30 dresses!
Too Scratchy!
Okay but a little plain.
The dress twisted out of alignment while she walked.
She liked this dress and it made it into the top three.  Felicity was tired of being a spectator and decided to join in the "fun".
I'll be so glad when mismatched socks are no longer in style!
 Back
Front-She loved this dress.  Made it into the top two.  She wants to wear this dress in the Summer with a big black hat to a picnic or the horse races...because "it just looks like that kind of dress".  No, we've never been to the horse races, but if we bought this dress we would probably have to go.
Just not a good look.
Felicity getting comfortable...this is taking forever!
Just "okay"
Made it into the top six.  This is Kayla behind Aubree.  She and her mom, Christie are also shopping last minute for her dress!  
We have a winner!  For both girls!  This is the dress Aubree chose (with help) and this is the dress Kayla chose!  Very pretty and both moms were very happy that their search was over!
Beautiful!
Aubree & Sadie

  2. I'm exhausted just looking and reliving the experience through your pictures! WOW!!! Hope she had fun!!! She looked beautiful!
    PS--I think she needs to get the horse racing dress, too. It was so cute on her!

  3. Yes Sarah, if we would've went to the Maple Sugar Festival it would've been Dustin taking her shopping and the first dress she tried on he would've said, "Okay, that one looks good. Are we done?" lol!

  4. Leigh Ann, Aubree would agree with you; she was really trying to talk me into both dresses! The nice surprise was that as I went to pay for the dress, they gave me an extra 20% off! They must have felt sorry for me, I'm sure I looked completely exhausted!
