5th Annual Father-Daughter Dance

It's hard to believe it was five years ago that I decided our homeschool group needed a Father-Daughter Dance. A couple moms and I got together and held the first annual Father-Daughter Dance in 2006. And here we are, five years later, repeating this now-popular event a fifth time. It's a fun event, and my hope is that our girls will cherish these memories with their dad for a lifetime.

Joe escorted his three lovely ladies to the dance again this year. (Joe, of course, has four lovely little ladies now, but two-month old Marguerite is just a little young for dancing. Next year! ;)  Joe surprised Anna Marie, Kathleen, and Therese with corsages, to their great delight. And, of course, he danced their socks off. It was an evening of merriment with Dad and girl friends.
