Oh, to be 17 again...

Last weekend was a girl's choice dance at the high school. Jessica went and did a very fun day activity. Day activity you may ask...well, not only do they go to the dance together, but they do an activity during the day with each other before the dance. Don't know why, they just do.
They did a picture scavenger hunt where they had to do and find certain things and then take a photo of it. One on the list was to build a 10 person pyramid---WE DID IT!!
The group went as the game "Clue". Jessica as Mrs. Peacock. She loved her peacock earrings :)!!
I fed this group of good, good kids dinner and sent them on their way. I really do have hope in the next generation after spending time with them for a little while last Saturday. These kids have their heads on straight, all have goals, get good grades, participate in all kinds of service and just want to have good, clean fun. I LOVE IT!!! Almost makes me want to be 17 again...ALMOST :)!!!!
Be Nice to People,
Julie

How awesome for your daughter and her friends! Our daughter and friends did the same thing during her high school years. Great group of friends too. They did the all day date thing whenever there was a dance. We couldn't figure it out either. Must have been the sign of the times then too. It's been a long time since we've had teenagers in the house. Our son will be celebrating his 10th reunion this summer!!! EEEEK! where'd the time go! Enjoy........

Way to go mom!
Great kids, usually have great parents!
This generation is amazing, and strong, and so smart!
It's awesome that your daughter has such a great group of friends that will support her and help her be the best she can be. And, clearly, they are having a ton of fun too!

They look like they had so much fun. Very creative on their parts to do a 'Clue' twist for their scavenger hunt.

It is sad that this kind of behavior doesn't get more press.

They should be commended.
