Doo Wop

Isabelle and Ben were invited to their first official Daddy-Daughter Date with the Girl Scout Troops of The Woodlands. It was a Sock Hop and Isabelle was beyond excited. She convinced Grammie to make her an aqua-blue poodle skirt for the special night and of course Grammie made one for Olivia as well. (She even had enough felt left over and sewed one for Bella and Dizzy too!) Isabelle is doing a Grease medley for her dance recital this year so she had been practicing some 50-style dance moves in class so she felt prepared to show her friends just how to dance.

Ben borrowed a leather jacket from Grandpa to help him get in character and the two were off for the evening. They ate a yummy burger and hot dog dinner complete with root beer floats for dessert.  Ben said that Isabelle NEVER stopped dancing and barely let him eat his food. She participated in a hula hoop contest and even won a raffle prize of ribbon hair bows. They danced until the very last song was played and then tiredly headed home from a fun and busy night. Isabelle loved sharing some alone time with Ben and feeling so grown up. The next morning when she crawled into bed with me she sweetly said Well, I guess I've been to my first dance now. Well done, Ben!
