Good Morning all..........<br /><br />Just popping in as today is another busy one for us. It is grandaughters 18th birthday so we are doing all the usual preps. Dinner, cake etc. She did not want to go out to dinner but asked her Mom for Baked Ziti and chicken cutlet parmigiana.<br /><br />The prom shopping was an experience, we went to Ultimate Fashions, The Dress Club, Cinderellas shop, Davids Bridal, Macy&#39;s, Penneys and I am sure I forgot a few........She is a very petite girl a size 0. Well Davids Bridal was our last stop and that is where we found &quot;The Wow Factor&quot;. It is a beautiful wine color <br />with a plunging back but not too plunging (grandpa was hiding his eyes lol) She picked out shoes there and they do the alterations right there. So she is all set and ready and the store has a policy that if another girl from her school comes in they do not sell her the same dress. So that was our  birthday present to her.<br />It wasn&#39;t that painful and grandpa actually had a good time. <br /><br />Tomorrow we head for home at 6 am and our other grandaughter is coming home with us. She is 20 and she will be attending University of Cincinnati College Conservatory of Music as a theater major. She has a appointment with the school on Thursday  for her interview and tour of the school and to sit in on a few dance and voice classes. She will fly home here to NJ on Sunday and then things will be back to normal.<br />Whatever that is around here lately.<br /><br />Marylou if you could just handle the birthdays for a few more days I would appreciate it.<br /><br />Hope everyone is well and I will catch up with all the posts when I get home.<br /><br /><br />Ciao for now<br />
