Originally it was $600, but since most girls don’t wear anything like that anymore (more slinky and sexy), it was the last one of its kind and marked way down. When I found out it was the only one left, I knew it would need sizeable alterations (from an 8 to a 4 for starters), so I talked them down even more. I ended up paying $112, then add $115 for alterations (which was a bit more than I thought). So about $225, and she had a one-of-a-kind. All her other dresses have been way cheaper–$98, $12(Nordstrom’s Last Chance special), $30, and borrowed from a friend. So I didn’t feel too bad paying that for it, averaged out with all the others. It’ll be here before you know it!jenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01313127576303289593noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2750966252794891890.post-40844086349176513972009-04-27T13:53:00.000-07:002009-04-27T13:53:00.000-07:00Wow, neat pics...AND good-looking kids!

You can almost feed on that energy.<br /><br />=)<br /><br />PS. You look great, too. Don't push that doctor (or your body) too hard, okay?

Secondly, Heidis dress (what I could see of it) was GORGEOUS!!!!! And so was she, but that goes without saying. Thirdly, nice job picking out the vest and tie, perfection for sure! I'm glad the kids had a great time at their Proms, AND that Ben ahd a good birthday, but MOSTLY I'm glad you had a wonderful time with your Mom and Sis. Good luck convincing the doctor!!Allyson & Jerehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09899323132507414349noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2750966252794891890.post-44014099887560148402009-04-27T12:22:00.000-07:002009-04-27T12:22:00.000-07:00They are beautiful kids!
