Heather is not a girly-girl, make-up and fashion aren;t really her thing, so it was a real treat for us to see her all grown-up in her dress. Our baby girl has turned into a beautiful young woman. The Prom was held in the Crutherland Hotel in the town of East Kilbride about twenty minutes drive from our home. Sadly the kids had left it too late to book a Limo so they had to hire a coach. It was quite a site seeing some of the girls trying to get onto a bus in their dresses. Heather said the three course meal they had was lovely and everyone enjoyed the ceiladh/disco. I hope I don;t bore anyone too much but Proms are still a relatively new idea here in Scotland and I just have to share all the lovely photographs I took. My blog will be back to normal in the next post , when I will have some stitching up-dates. Hope everyone has a good week-end. Hugs!

Your daughter's dress turned out beautifully! I love that color. She is lovely. :) And can I just say that those boys in their kilts are fantastic hot stuff? Wow! Very handsome.
Your daughter looks like a movie star! All the girls look beautiful. I had no idea the guys would wear traditional kilts. That is so cool.
Your daughter looks gorgeous! And looks like everyone had fun. Great pictures, thanks for sharing them all.
Your daughter looks beautiful. What a lovely group of young men and women. I hope they all had a great time and made great memories.....The kilts took me aback a minute but I think they are awesome. Thanks for sharing the photos.
Beautiful photos!! Your daughter makes her dress look fantastic! I love the young men wearing their kilts.
Glad to hear you are feeling better.
Great pictures!! Your daughter looks beautiful! And I love the kilts, they look so sharp!
Glad you're feeling better :)
These pictures are so so lovely. Heather is so beautiful as well as are all of the girls. It's so nice to see that there are those that still dress nice . These days there are so many girls that dress so inappropriately for things like this. These girls really have style. And those boys!! Wow! It's so nice to see young men in kilts. We've been looking into getting one for my husband as he has Scotch heritage and would be under the Martin Clan. They do get expensive don't they?! My part time boss has a kilt and his sporn (wee beastie as some may call them) is made of reindeer.
Your daughter looks so beautiful. That dress will be one when she looks back at the picture 20 years from now, will still be in fashion. It's timeless!!!!
I just started following your blog and I'm really enjoying reading through it. You and I have a love of OWLS!!! I'm glad I'm not the only one.
I just started a new blog please feel free to stop by.

You have such a beautiful daughter! And the boys look handsome, especially in their kilts!
When I was at school, we dressed in old clothes for "The oldest's day" but nowadays it is more like a ball in Finland too. With all the lovely dances. I include a link to see something:

Your daughter is beautiful and looks every inch the lady in her prom dress! The guys looks great too in their kilts!
Hope they all had a wonderful time, thanks for sharing:-)
What fun for your daughter and friends! I remember going through the "prom" process twice with my daughters. Lots of special times as they grow up. Hope they had a safe and fun time!
Thanks for visiting my blog too! I'll be a newbie follower to your blog.
ooohhh My ....What a beautiful daughter you have, it comes just stepped out of a movie! Beautiful pictures! The men are very handsome ....
Your daughter is gorgeous! And the young men in their kilts... Wow! Very handsome!
A very handsome/beautiful looking group :)
We have two proms done with two to go.
Beautiful dress and an even more beautiful girl! She looked lovely! I love how she has her hair done also. :) But where are the pics with her mom & dad?????
Heather is such a beautiful girl!! What a fantastic dress. I love the guys being in kilts, too. My cousin married a MacKinnon whose grandfather was from Scotland, and the MacKinnons are all HUGE into their Scottish heritage. The groomsmen all wore kilts and the women had tartan plaid in their bouquets at their wedding.
Debs and grads are the popular thing in Ireland. I didn't realize that the neighbors came out to see the girls go off till a few days after my daughter's grad, when people asked when they'd get to see her leave! LOL Interesting how different--yet similar--the traditions all are!
Heather looked absolutely stunning - what a gorgeous and elegant dress!
Very lovely photos, and you daugther is a beautiful girl!
