Daddy's Little Girl Isn't So Little Anymore

So, last night was the 10th and *choke* final Father-Daughter dance at St. Margaret's School for Heather and I.
Starting in kindergarten and working our way up to her current 8th grade, this event has been a staple of our SMS memories, and a night out that I'll remember forever. I'm proud to say I've got a beautiful daughter who's - at least for now - still not too embarrassed to be seen dancing with her father.

It's been a treasure to watch her grow up over these years, and as you'll see from the pics to follow, she's had a great time doing it, with so many friends in tow. Unfortunately, these are just the pics from the years of digital cameras, I don't have her earliest years loaded in here.

Absolutely unforgettable memories. And it's not as if this wasn't already a difficult acknowledgement to realize my baby is getting ready to head off to high school, but what was the last song they played for daughters to dance with their dads last night? Of course, "Daddy's Little Girl."

2005 (2nd grade, 8 years old)



2006 (3th grade, 9 years old)

2007 (4th grade, 10 years old)


2008 (5th grade, 11 years old)


2009 (6th grade, 12 years old)

2010 (7th grade, 13 years old)
And last night, 2011 (8th grade, 14 years old)
And people wonder why I lug a camera around to all of these events.
Thanks Heather, for the best years and laughs!
