Monica is sixteen now, and gets to date. On April 9th a Prom was held for the Mormon kids (and friends) in this area (2 Stakes). Its like a regular prom, but with LDS standards. Specifically, it comes down to modest dresses, clean music and clean dancing. Never any alcohol or rented hotel rooms. The kids cluster at homes before the prom for their photo-ops. The dinner and dancing is at a local country club. It ends around 11:30 pm and then the kids usually
head to another home for more food and fun. Monica's group had a full-blown breakfast at midnight and jacuzzi time.I only blog about this because I can't believe how lucky my girls are to have a nice, raunch-free place to be with good kids like them. I wish all parents could have an event like this for their teens. Monica went with a friend, Alex.

Monica looks so pretty! What a great idea to do their own prom.
I agree that this is a wonderful event, and look at these wonderful kids that Monica was able to be with! So fun. I was talking to her & Amanda at church, and Amanda seems pretty excited for when it will be her turn! You have beautiful girls! I think you have many nights ahead of you waiting for them to come home from their dates. (and you look great too Susan!)
I wish this was around when I was a youth
Handsome young men and beautiful young women,with great standards. It doesn't get better than that!!
What fun! I'm glad there are so many pictures to look at. I recognize a couple of kids, and Monica? she looks beautiful!
Hubba Hubba Monica! I bet your date was thrilled when you said "yes" I am so glad you told me about this mormon prom such a fun idea and neat thing to see these young adults standing up for what they believe. Yahoo!
Very fun Susie, I happened to see your blog on your face book page so I added it to my family blog list. Thanks
