winter wonderland 2016

first full week of the new year: complete! 

it sure was a busy one! first off, I want to apologize for not posting very much this week! I have been beyond busy with dance, school & just life in general. I've had a lot of fun events happen over the past 24 hours that I'm more than excited to share with you- it'll be in 2 different blog posts.

this one is about Winter Wonderland!

every year, my dance team hosts a fundraiser at the school called Winter Wonderland. it's basically our schools winter formal, and most people say it's even more fun than prom! 

everyone dresses up, takes a lot of cute pictures and shows up and dances all night long. since I'm my coaches teacher aide, I was in charge of selling tickets {another reason I was so busy}.

my senior year winter wonderland was a COMPLETE success and I want to share some of my experience with you!

pedicures to prep for the dance, we all went and got a pedicure! sadly were all dancers & couldn't get a manicure since our team has a strict "no nail polish" rule, but the massage chairs and fazolis afterwards made up for it! {L-R: Eryn, Kenzie, Olivia, Emma, myself}

best friends these girls are the major reason my night was so fun! from getting ready together and singing Thomas Rhett together in the bathroom, these girls made it an absolute blast. 

our friend Bree isn't dressed up because she doesn't go to our school, so she didn't attend the formal! but she still came and helped us all get ready, because she's just great! {L-R: Sydnie, Emilie, Bree, myself, & Josie}

transformation the first picture is from last year's winter formal and this one is from this year's! 365 days may have made us a little bit better looking, but it sure didn't change our bond! 

date this is Saul! he was my date. sadly, he couldn't eat or go to the dance, but he still was able to go to pictures with all of us!

candid this picture definetly explains our friendship! 

winter wonderland royalty every year at the formal, the dance attendees vote for a queen, King, prince, and princess! I was completely blessed enough to win a Queen, along with one of my best guy friends Devon {first picture}

McKenzie {my mini me} was crowned princess.. I thought this was pretty cool since we're like sisters and I call her my mini me! now we're basically sister royalty!

so as you can see, my senior year Winter wonderland dance was a major success. from prepping for the dance to the actual dance, I had a lot of fun and I'm so glad I got to spend my senior year with all of these people! hope everyone had a great week!
