So here you go, all the pictures I promised. Sorry if some of them are a little dark (it got a bit dark in the ball room.) Enjoy!

The day before the ball was our quilting club so I invited the girls from the quilting club to come to ball the next day. We (Anna and I) offered to do the girls hair. Sorry there aren't a lot of pics of doing their hair. I was busy what can I say.

| Lindsey's hair, done by my mom. | 
Lindsey's hair was so thick, it would not hold a curl. But my mom did a great job and it lasted all night falling out of the pins just after we walked out the door. Lol!
We let Lindsey borrow a costume. Thankfully mom had a long dress and Claire had a black shawl that matched. 
|  | 
| Cenna's hair, done by me. | 
I did Cenna's hair. I wanted to do it like this:
But I made a bun instead of tucking it under. I think it turned out really cute!
|  | 
| Bethany's hair done by me. | 
I also did Bethany's hair, I was going to do the same style as Cenna's but Bethany's hair was way to thick so I just did a simply bun with some curls out in the front. 
|  | 
| Shannan's hair done by Anna. | 
Anna did Shannan's hair and I loved the little braids on the side. 
|  | 
| Brianna's hair done by my mom. | 
My mom did Brianna's hair copying from Anna's idea.
|  | 
| My hair, also done by my mom | 
She also did the same on me instead the other style I had practiced (for some reason when we did it, it just looked really bad). 
|  | 
| About ready to leave for the ball. | 
I took some wire and attached some pearl so bobby pins to go in my hair. 
|  | 
| All in all I think the outfit came together very well. |

| Showing our ankles, don't look! :P |

| Lovely 1912 clothes | 
They had a collection of things from 1912 upstairs so we took a peek in there.
