Prom 2018 Shenanigans

So what if Prom was back in May? I'm simply trying to get back into some routine of blogging and these photos were a lot of fun to take.

First of all, my son and his girlfriend were super late to the designated photo venue. Like last year, they opted to gather at the University of Illinois' Main Quad. Traditionally, the senior class takes photos at the local country club, but I think something transpired a few years ago which led to the students no longer being welcome on the golf course's 18 fairway (probably because they tore it up).

Serious Photo. The girls are so tall with their high heels, it's hard to see the guys. This group, with the exception of my son and the boy on his right are juniors.


So I asked the guys to get up on the edge of the stone banister, but then one of them slipped and Chaos ensued!

This is my favorite outtake photo!

After things settled down:




With the Senior Gang


The guys insisted on this one:


Then a more candid moment - with the golden sun


A great Senior prom for the Class of 2018
