Last night at our church hosted prom.
I’ve been to some church functions in my thirty-something years.
A substantial portion of my childhood calories were from pot-luck dinners. I have been to chili suppers, Easter sunrise pancake breakfasts, seder suppers, church carnivals, Lent soup suppers, Advent soup dinners, Fall Fests, Spring Flings, and Garage Sales.
But a Mardi-Gras themed prom…for adults?
Not until last night.
And, oh, so fun.
Loud dance music that M and I remembered from our own proms. Cash bar. Delicious food. The chance to wear the dress my bridesmaids wore in our wedding. This night had it all.
Even the awkward prom picture before.
Funny. I don’t remember such dark circles in my first prom picture.
