8th Grade Dance

It is a big deal at Alston Middle School. The 8th grade dance.  They said NO LIMOS. I wonder how that got to be a thing. 

Lon wanted a bow tie. So I made him a bow tie

We had to buy him a new sport coat. Yes, I bought it much bigger than it needed to be, I wanted it to last a little while.

The kids waiting for the doors to open. All the 8th grade teachers were chaperones. No parents.  The kids outfits ran the gamet from casual, to holiday barbie type dresses. Most kids were at least semi formal.

Lon said he had fun, even though he refused to dance. He enjoyed the Chic Fi A.
