First she has an appointment with Jess to get an updo. Jess is very talented!!
Before Jess started on Ellen, Zoe asked if she could clean up the hair from her previous client. Zoe did a great job! She said she loves to help....yes she does! So sweet.
All dressed up and ready for her big night!
Her brother snaps some pictures too. He's also holding a precious bundle who came home that afternoon, sweet baby Noah.
Ready to go to our next stop...she never leaves home without her purse, stack of books, and her game. Never.
We meet with some friends at Ellen's friend Elizabeth's house.
Coach T (Elizabeth's dad and Challenger Baseball coach for all the kids except Ben) decided to get in the pic. :) the kids act like he shouldn't be there!
Ellen and Nicole meet these two special ladies who were going to the prom to assist any of our kids who would need it. (No parents allowed...this is their night!) Ellen had school teachers at the prom. Some of her friends are not involved with the IU and didn't have that advantage. These two provided a level of peace :) they also were taking many pictures, gave each if the girls an album and promised them a disk from which to print pics to place into the album. Special, indeed!!
Off we go to Bent Creek Country Club.
Group of friends with Jackie from Aaron's Acres. These kids were involved in AA for many years. Some are getting to the point if being too old for the programming, including Ellen. :(
I forgot to say that Risa Paskoff, the Director of AA, was at Elizabeth's house. She said she couldn't miss seeing these kids on their special night. So special!!
We always go to see the last several dances.....
Our girl is a good dancer!

This just really gives me tears. Tears of joy for such a wonderful event and all the caring people involved, and tears of sadness that she's outgrowing these special things. She looks so beautiful and radiant on all these pictures.
She looks so pretty and seems to be having a grand time. Thanks for sharing the pictures. It has been a long time since my children had prom...your pictures brought back good memories.

Ellen looks so pretty! I love her hair. I'm impressed with her brothers skill at taking photos while holding a baby. :)
It looks like everyone had a fun night, and I bet those helpers really enjoyed themselves too.
