Princess Ball

The Princess Ball, a daddy-daughter dance annually hosted by our church, The Branch Church, is an event Mikaela looks forward to.  For days and weeks leading up to it, she talks about it, the dress, the shoes, the accessories, etc.  

Daddy takes her to dinner (her choice) and then they go to the church for a night of fun and dancing.  She's gone with her daddy since she was 3.  

This year they went to Razoo's first.  Given their dress, it was clear they were on a daddy-daughter date.  When the bill came, it was marked paid.  Some patron paid for their meal because he/she was encouraged to see a dad investing in his daughter.  So cool.  

And now for pictures:

On January 29, The Branch Church did their annual Princess Ball, a tradition for Mikaela and her daddy.

Daddy came to pick her up this year, complete with a rose.

There was also a Daddy-Daughter Dance hosted by the Carrollton Police Department about a month later.  Mikaela requested the bow tie.

The Princess Ball

Every year, our church puts on a Princess Ball for Daddys and their daughters.  Mike took Mikaela for the first time last year.  They just went to the dance.  This year, Mike took her to dinner first, before heading to the dance.  I think this will become a highlight for Mikaela every year as she grows and learns from her daddy that she should always be treated like a princess from any boy who might try to win her heart in the future.

Seeing Cinderella there was probably the highlight of her night

Every year, our church does a daddy/daughter dance called the "Princess Ball."  This year was the first year Mike and Mikaela went.  She wasn't crazy about the loud music, but she had a great time anyway!
