Prom 2010

A friend of mine from work is turning 40 this week and she had the BRILLIANT idea of doing a prom-themed party this weekend to celebrate. Our office just happens to have bleachers so it was the perfect fit for the party giving it a gym feel. I'm so mad my phone doesn't have a flash. I would have taken a bunch of pictures of the decorations but everything was turning out black. Melissa really outdid herself and it was much more "prommy" than I expected. Coming up the stairs you saw 3 tables with balloon centerpieces that were blinking with colored lights.


Once you rounded the corner there were disco balls, strobe lights, christmas lights and rotating color lights filtering the room.


Music was pumping through the speakers and she even transformed some tall cabinets into lockers. Hanging from them were pompons, band posters and a letter jacket. There was even a balloon archway for picture-taking! She did an amazing job! Melissa provided pizza and drinks and Marcie and I pitched in on a cake.


That gray blob is supposed to be a disco ball. Can't really make a mirrored image with icing. Melissa had collected some of our old prom pictures and had them displayed on the wall. She put a sign outside one of the think pods that said "7 Minutes in Heaven" just in case any of us wanted to take a makeout break. Marcie and Travis even brought roses so people could have corsages. All the details were in place! Here are some pictures of the amazing time we had!

Apparently neither one of us is listening considering we're both talking.


Gettin' our booties slapped!


The amazing powder blue suit...


...and the shoes that went with them.


You talking to me?
