Brendan's Big Day

Not only is today the feast of St. Brendan, it's also Brendan Michael's Prom Night! The girls and I snapped a few shots of him before he headed out the door.



My baby boy!




Not his usual shorts and t-shirt ensemble.


A huge thank you (and some smooches) to Mary for the
beautiful handmade keepsake boutonniere.


The girlies posing with their bro before he leaves for a night of dancing.



"Day of Dreams"... The day before the Prom, the high school and transition students at his school attended a local high school for typically developing students. Each student from Bren's school was partnered with one or two high school buddies and spent the day hanging out with them. The buddies take the students to play basketball, volleyball, sing, dance, play percussion instruments and do some art as well. The students all had lunch together. His teacher reported it was a fun day.

Ro is right! Wish my prom date had sported a smile that like one. :) I'm glad the boutonniere worked with his outfit. The fashionista did an awesome job! I'll be anxious to hear about how it went, too. :)

Oh he looks incredibly handsome! Your baby boy is all grown up now and dancing the night away. I have been too excited about his big night. I can't wait to hear how it all went. :o)

Excellent job with the boutonniere, Mary! You and Ciara make a wonderful wardrobe team.

Are you trying to make me cry? I thought I told him he was NOT allowed to get any older...

I am totally digging that "Day of Dreams" event - what an awesome idea!
