One of the highlights of the year for Emily and Matt is the Daddy Daughter Dance that our church has every March. This is the third year that they have gone to it. Usually around summertime, Emily will start asking "Is the Daddy Daughter Dance coming up soon?". She gets so excited about it. It has become such a great tradition for them to share together. He gets her a corsage and she gets him a boutonniere. Before the dance, they go out to eat at Mimi's which is one of Emily's favorite restaurants. It's such a special time for them. The church does a wonderful job with the dance with all of the decorations, food and other activities besides dancing. They estimated that they had 1200 dads and daughters in attendance this year. At one point during the night, our pastor has everyone come into the sanctuary where he leads them in taking some Daddy/Daughter vows. Then they play the video from the Cinderella song by Steven Curtis Chapman. If I had been there, I'm sure I would have been bawling my eyes out.

This is awesome. Matt showed me the pictures you sent him here and the one at the top is my favorite. You can see the love between them in that picture. The daddy / daughter dance pictures are some of my favorites because they just look so beautiful together. Those are some amazing and special memories that Emily (and Matt) will carry with them forever.
Very sweet pictures Lisa :) I bet Emily and Matt just had the best time together...what a great moment :)
