Anniston's elementary school hosted a Father/Daughter Dance Friday night. The theme was "Hollywood", so I explained to Anniston that it was meant to be a fancy dance. She was so excited to go shopping for her dress (a couple of posts ago). We completed the ensemble with new wedge shoes (her idea), and a flower to match. This girl knew EXACTLY how she wanted to dress up, down to how her hair should look!
I picked her up Friday, and we immediately went to work.....she showered, we dried her hair, painted her toes and fingernails, then worked on her up-do. Once the look was complete, she got dressed and had me add some "sparkle" to her eyes and lips. She looked so grown up!
Anniston decided that she wanted to hide upstairs so that Dadoo didn't see her until it was time to go. Jerry got all gussied up and looking SO handsome in his suit (Anniston asked him to wear a tuxedo, but settled for his fancy suit).
Then it happened.....the doorbell rang.....Dadoo got a glimpse of his princess, and he was BESIDE himself :)
NOTE: NONE OF THESE PICTURES WERE SCRIPTED.....THIS IS JUST ME SNAPPING AWAY AS THE MOMENT PLAYED OUT.....UGH, MELT ME!!!!
Dadoo got down on one knee to put on her wrist corsage
Pure love!!
Jerry, this moment you gave Anniston absolutely melts me into mush! You are such an amazing Dadoo, and these kids are so unbelievably blessed that you are their father. What an example you are showing for not only Anniston as to how a man should treat her, but also to Treyson who witnessed everything you did for Anniston. That is how he will learn to treat a lady, and be such a wonderful man, husband, and father (just like you!). I love you more with each passing day!
Anniston, I hope that you had a wonderful time with Dadoo last night. He was just as excited as you were to attend the dance. He's been waiting for this since you were born! You are certainly his precious baby girl, and he is so proud of the sweet, loving girl that you are. You'll always be Dadoo's sweet baby girl! I love you!
