My Baby Girl is Wearing My Prom Dress!

Hannah and I had so much fun tonight!  I had a photo shoot that I've been dreaming about for a while.  My dream involved my baby girl and my prom dress made by by mother in 1988!  I've been carefully saving my gorgeous, one-of-a-kind, designed by my precious mother, prom dress in the back of my closet and hoping for a special day to get it out and play a little dress up.

My prom dress fit Hannah perfectly!  {Sigh!} I was once this size too!

Hannah looked GORGEOUS in my dress.  I added my pearls and Hannah added her sense of style...her favorite cowboy boots.  Perfect!  I grabbed my camera, we hopped in the car, and found a really cool place for special photos.

(On a side-note, I am entering one of these photos in a photography competition.  The theme is "pastels."  Which one would you choose???? PLEASE, leave me a comment and let me know your fave.  I love them all, but that's probably not due to my photography skills but due to the fact that my baby girl is in every one of them!.  So, pretty-please-with-sugar-on-top, help a girl out and leave me a comment! PLEASE! ) 

Ready?  Okay, here they are in no particular order:  Hannah wearing my prom dress.

Whew!  I only have 140 more pictures.  Aren't you glad I narrowed it down to 7?!

 I can't wait to see what your top choices are.  Thanks for helping me out.  Blessings to you!!!

    I can't EVEN choose, they are all so beautiful! When I saw them it reminded me of the covers of these historical fiction books I read with the field and barn in the background.

    #1 grabs me because of her expression and I like seeing the boots.

    They are all great! I can see why you'd have trouble choosing which one to enter.

    I gotta say #1 - just love the colors & the angle she is looking away. It's just peaceful & serene......

    These are breathtaking! It was a hard choice between number 4 and 1, but I just kept coming back to number 1 because it was so beautiful!

    Your daughter is beautiful are your photography is stunning. All the photos are lovely but for me that last shot is a winner, just that expression and the setting with a less colorful background makes that dress really pop too.
