Father-Daughter Dance

I'm not sure how it happened, but Ruby suddenly became old enough to attend the school's Father-Daughter dance!

She was so excited to get dressed up and take her Daddy on a date. I don't think she had any idea what it was they were going to before they arrived, but she knew it was a big deal. Maddux and I got her dressed in the only fancy dress she has right now (which was Maddux's for the same dance, many years ago), and then I worked on her hair.

Maddux, of course, wanted to share some make-up with her. She told Ruby, "Close your eyes."
We were running a little late because Ruby and Lehr had just come home from a birthday party, but we still managed to grab a few photos of the two of them before they drove away.

Lehr said a friend found Ruby and pulled her onto the dance floor (be still, my heart), and Ruby was all-in the whole time. She found more friends, danced to her favorite songs, took a few photos with Daddy, and lasted about 45 minutes before leaving to come to Maddux's basketball game.
