Prom 2009

After playing in two basketball games in the morning, Keaton had to change from sweaty athlete into debonair young man. He was so handsome...and he looked so grown up! It's been 13 years since he wore a tux and he's never looked better! Uncle Bub was very generous and let Keaton drive his car on prom night. Keaton was pretty pumped!! We posed for some pictures at home and then we headed over to Elizabeth's house to pose for more pictures with her friends. Keaton and Elizabeth decided to go out to dinner alone (at the Black Swan in Kalamazoo), so after the other kids left for dinner, we went down the road to the gazebo to take even more pictures. They were so cute!! Matt and I went out to dinner at the local pizzeria. We laughed as every table was pretty much a set of parents we knew who had a child at the prom. All we needed was some music and we could have had our own prom!

Everyone had a fabulous time at the prom. Keaton said it was really fun and they divided up their time between Elizabeth's friends and Keaton's friends. Keaton was voted Prom Prince (prince/princess for juniors and king/queen for seniors) and was very surprised. After the prom, the kids stopped at Steak and Shake for a while. It was a night he'll always remember!
