Senior Prom 2025
Dress shopping stress/fun went much like last year. (see Jr. Prom post) It is so tough to find a formal dress with any type of coverage and plus a dress in general that Aubrey liked. We succeeded though, and Aub was super excited to go with a big friend group of eleven: three couples, two guys and three girls.
We went together to get a pedicure on Monday ($55 each--we each paid for our own.)
She had her nails done on Thursday ($80--we paid.)
She had jewelry and shoes from her closet. (Bless her for that savings.)
We contributed $30 to her $50 Prom ticket.
Brian and I bought her a white rose bouquet to make her night extra special. ($35-a steal!)
(Just listing the prices and how we had Aub contribute for history’s sake. Also, her prom dress was only $70 which was amazing. Most dresses we saw were in the $200-$350 range.)
Aubrey had Saturday on a schedule: work from 10-2, head straight to Parker's house to get ready, Nisi would style her hair, pictures at a beautiful spot in Midland, dinner at Salt Grass at 5:30, Prom at La Hacienda 7:30, and a (girls) sleepover at Parker's house for the after party.
HOWEVER...
Aubrey was up all Friday night with either food poisoning or a violent stomach bug. She was much too sick to get out of bed on Saturday. She was pathetic about missing out. When I would check on her, her eyes would fill with tears and she would weakly say, "It's my Senior prom." She was so sad, and my heart hurt for her.
This is how badly I felt for her...I refrained from snapping a prom photo of her wiped out on her bed. I was REALLY tempted!
Here is picture of her dress. I'm hoping she will dress up one day, and I can post that picture.
Her friends, minus the boys who opted out of a group picture. (It was freezing, misting and they were running late for dinner.)

A few pictures I took of the PHS Facebook page:
Including a few pictures of her cousin Braddock and his date Becca. Britney did an AMAZING job decorating a beautiful place for dinner. Braddock said they had a fun night.
