Senior Prom ~ 2010

May 1, 2010
Bryant High School Senior Prom

Krista Koder & Dillon Crouse

Saturday, May 1, 2010 was the Bryant High School JR/SR Prom, it was held at the Little Rock Convention Center.  This was Krista and Dillon's SR Prom and the second prom that they were attending together.

To get Krista ready for the prom, started on Friday night.  W-E-L-L, actually much earlier than that!!  We started looking for a dress MONTHS before the prom.  We first looked at the dress shop in Conway where we bought her dress for her JR Prom.  She found one that she really liked, but wanted to look some more.  In March we went to Jacksonville and looked at First Impressions, and she found the one she wanted.  It was such a pretty watermellon color, but she worried that Dillon would not want to wear any shade of  "Pink".  But Dillon really came thru for her, he said he would and he looked GREAT!!  And she looked AWESOME in her dress!!

So, to actually get ready for the prom, we started on Friday night by getting her nails done and a pedicure.

(post pics of decorating here)
Since Krista was on prom committee, we got up early Saturday and went to the convention center to decorate.  We had Jordan with us and of course she was a big help!!  LOL
Here is Jordan playing under the net.

(post pictures of Jordan)

Then at 2:00 we went to Ashlee Kathryn's and "had her hair did"!!  Ashlee, did a beautiful job for her JR Prom and I wasn't sure she could top what she had done last year....but she did!!

Then off to Dillon's to meet up with the group..

The group took off to the Clinton library to take pictures before the storm came.  On Friday we had severe storms, and lots of tornados that of course tore up several areas in the area.  Saturday it was predicted to do the samething all over again!!  IT DID NOT DISSAPOINT!!  It rained cats, dogs, bunnies, cows, and I am pretty sure I saw some pigs fly!!  Just kidding but let me tell you...it poured on them!!

Krista was presented with the Outstanding Member award and a check for $500!!

We are all so excited for her, and she was so surprised because she had no idea that she was getting this award.  She was so funny when she handed me the envelope, she thought is was just a letter of recognition and when I opened it and told her it was a check she was shocked!!
Jared, Krista, Jordan and Jason

This is her and her brothers after the ceremony, dummy me, didn't check the memory card and it was full so I didn't get any pictures of her dad and I with her. 

Of course she had to have pics with her and her buddies!
