Last night was Winter Formal. Dances have always been pleasantly awkward for me--I have watched way too many John Hughes movies not to appreciate high school for what it is--but this year it was actually a really nice situation! Nathan and I, along with our friends Erin and Domenico (who are going on 3 years in a couple of days--sheesh they make me feel old) went to this awesome Vietnamese restaurant for dinner. Yum! We definitely need to go back there sometime. Then we inspected all the Asian goodies at the Asian market next door. They must have thought we were pretty crazy to be grocery shopping in our fancy threads, but it's all good because now I know where to go if I ever need a two foot-long bag of seaweed. The dance itself is always a culture shock of songs I have never heard of and dance moves I really wish I didn't know about, but they played a couple of decent songs and I got to do the twist. So life is good.

OMG...ADORABLE! I'm so glad you had fun :)
very cute!
you guys look so lovely and this kid Nathan knows what is UP taking a gal like you who gets culture shock at a dance like that. he will thank himself later for that move. i wish i'd been more wryly aware of high school's ridiculosity when i was actually there. rather, the whole thing was just pretty pathetic. i LOVE your attitude about it all and the fact that you cheerfully but mindfully participate nevertheless.
sounds like a lovely night.
i love vietnamese food, so good.
You look gorgeous, Kaylie!
