Oh to be young again...

Lisa attended her very first church dance this month. She finally turned fourteen in September and thought this day would NEVER get here! Twelve youth from our Ward met us at the church and we all piled into our van to drive to Gulfport Mississippi for a combined Stake Youth Dance/Dinner. There were 72 youth in attendance at the dance. Most of them were Young Men. I think Lisa had a fun time although I do think she hoped there would have been more young men to choose from. Hopefully she realizes that there will be many more dances to attend and many more Young Men to chase in the future! (Thank goodness!)
As always, Kenny and Jessica got to be there with us but were virtually unseen as per Lisa's very strict instructions! Tucked away with a portable DVD player and earphones really helps to pass the time while they were waiting for the dance to end. Jessica and Kenny did get to come out for the very last dance and Jessica LOVED being asked to dance by one of our Priests who was cut in by the Young Men's president. Now if you didn't think Jessica wanted to grow up in a hurry before! All she can talk about now is how SHE can't wait until SHE'S fourteen!
