Hey y'all! I'm Ashley, and I blog over at Ashley's Carnival Ride. I was so excited when Emily asked me to guest post for her! She is super sweet, and I just love having her for a blog/twitter friend! Today, I'm sharing some of my pictures and memories from my senior prom.
I grew up in a small town in southeastern Oklahoma, and I attended my senior prom waaaaay back in 2004. I'm so old :) I went with my group of friends, and we had a fabulous time!
The theme was Hollywood Nights. At our school, we had a prom banquet, which was a nice dinner before prom, then the actual prom itself a couple of hours later.
I decided that year that I was going to be different and wear a short dress instead of the long poofy ones that were super popular. I loved wearing something different, and I just LOVED the little pops of pink! My hairdresser who has been doing my hair my entire life fixed my hair up so cute! These were the days before very many people had flat irons, so let's just say my hair was normally...not cute. At all.
Before prom, we all met at Randa's house to take pictures together.
Me with my best friend Jessica!
We have SO many pictures throughout the years posed like this! We started it our freshman year of high school, and we take one for every significant event in our lives!
The whole group!
After finishing up our pictures, we were so surprised to find out that Randa and Michelle's parents had rented a limo to take us take us to prom!
We took a few limo pictures before we headed to the banquet. The limo driver was a weird little man, and before he took us to banquet, he drove us through Sonic and asked for grey poupon, because he said he's always wanted to ask for that!
Dinner was great, and after banquet was over, we went riding around in the limo for a little while longer. Prom walk-in was a huge deal, and we could NOT be the first people to arrive!
We had a great evening together! It was so much fun to get all dressed up and hang out with my favorite people! Our friends Randa and Kyle were even named Prom King and Queen!

After-prom breakfast was at 3:00 a.m., so after we decided to leave, Jessica and I went back to her house to hang out until time for breakfast.
What a fun night we had! It was so great to have one more big night all together before we all went our separate ways for college. Sometimes I miss those days!
Oh Ashley...you look like a baby!
