Daddy Daughter Ball

On August 22nd, our ward put together a Daddy Daughter ball. Ethan accidentally mentioned it around Kelsey and she was ecstatic, but he mentioned it on August 9th... 3 weeks in advance! Needless to say, August has been a long month for Kelsey, but the night of their date finally came.
Kelsey was so excited she literally couldn't eat.

Can we take a minute to recognize how awesome Ethan is as a dad! I mean seriously. He heard Daddy Daughter ball and bought a costume for the event just so Kelsey could have THAT much more fun. He is so wonderful. He even snuck around back and rang the doorbell to surprise Kelsey.

I kept trying to take pictures but Kelsey kept jumping up and down and finally goes, "mom! I want to go to the ball. Get in the car dad." It was nothing but adorable.

The ball was such amazing. The young women were in charge and did such a great job. What I loved the most about this ball was that it was a daddy daughter in any form. Ethan took Kelsey, some dads were there with teenagers, some were there with babies, some girls brought neighbors, and one sister even brought her 70 year old dad. It was so cute!
There were games, cupcakes, dancing, pictures, and a crown for all the princesses. Kelsey came home elated. I think its safe to say it was the best night of her little life. (Despite the picture!)

While Madison and I were at home a really cool storm was rolling in. Madison went to bed at 6:30 that night so I had a lot of time to myself. It was really fun.
