Dance Update...sorry, still playing catch-up!

So, I'm still in catching-up mode, and I apologize. But as we all know, life is crazy, and we all just do the best we can, right? I figure I'll give a dance update, since I sorta skipped over Homecoming last semester, not to mention my Winter Formal experience...

First off...
HOMECOMING!!!

Date: Branton Barney, or "Branton Date", as I called him all evening...I didn't know him that well before the date, but it was so fun to get to know him! He's a cool kid, and I can't wait until our Hawaiian scuba diving day activity...we're just awaiting my parents' stamp of approval...

*Dinner: California Pizza Kitchen, Holy AMAZING FOOD.

Favorite quotes of the night:
Branton: "You're pizza had babies!!!" (Why is it that both of the Homecoming dinners I've had in this lifetime have involved a discussion about making babies???)
Abby: "I don't like asexual pizza."
Aaron: "Abby, will you please stop being sexual with your pizza!?!"
Anonymous: "We're drinking Nak`d in your car..." (the juice, that is).

And NOW...WINTER FORMAL!

*Date: Joshua Lindblom.
I honestly love this boy. I can't think of any other male in my life who would actually want to join me in my quest for accessories--let alone make good, legitimate suggestions and comments about everything I looked at. And we're not just talking regular unisex stores either...we're talking Blossom, Forever21, and the panty hose section at Dillards. Luckily, we eventually decided the black tights with the seam were unecessary, otherwise I would've been trapped in that terrifyingly awkward situation for longer than the 20 minutes we spent in that department discussing the most effective forms of panty hose with the ridiculously patient saleswoman. I couldn't help but blush the whole time, though Josh was surprisingly cool with all of it. It was a strange experience. Anyway, we literally planned every inch of our outfits together, and we had the coolest corsage/boutenneires I've ever seen. It was SO fun!

Oh, and I was named Winter Formal Queen! It was kind of random, but an honor nonetheless. So, I guess...thanks to everyone who nominated me--it really meant a lot to me! :)
