Now it was time for Jane's prom. She got her hair done
fancy in the back
and then they added color to her
even in closeup
and from the back.
Her nails looked good
as well.
All of this inspired Benjamin to get out the basketball
dribble
and get ready to shoot
at which point he decided to go outside
and scout out the hoop
as his shot went up
came towards the rim
and went in
for the game winner. I'll let you, gentle viewer, decide
if these shots are in sequence ...
Next Jane posed in her prom dress
while Ben and Sarah consulted this catalog
for possible accessories
since it was a Hawaiian theme.
She posed a few more times
which didn't distract Benjamin
from building Lego soccer
Then Fred arrived
and in our confusion we took this picture of
Fred and Sarah
while Jane watched by the chess board.
The camera battery died as I recorded Cindy George
so I took this second shot
before going back to pictures of the girls

Next morning, I went to get Jane at Lucy's
which was showing signs of wear
as Kaylen slept lying down,
Jane and Lucy slept sitting up
and Rosie smiled
undoubtedly because the phone worked.
Back at home, Sarah
joined with Claire
to prepare for Juliana's graduation.
After a while, Bill
and Martha
arrived to go out to dinner
while Jane
stayed home to babysit. First we took this group
photo
and then this candid
and these pictures of Martha
reacting to the news of the 7th graders much to Jane's
great amusement. After a little more conversation
and a more normal picture of Martha
we went off to dinner.
When we got back, I did some experiments with the digital
zoom capturing Ben
Sarah
Martha
Bill (in profile)
the chess board
and Suzanne
before Claire
and Jess and Fanny
and the lineup
got me back to regular zoom'ing.
Sunday was the flute concert as Jane posed with her teacher
and then Rachel joined
First the flautists gathered
and the programs appeared
and then there were warmups
including Jane (in out of focus, digital zoom)
and then the teacher welcomed everyone
and showed the food you get if you last through
the concert
and the piano player
and then introduced the first player who was 5
all in the Bedford lecture hall.
Eventually, it was Jane's turn to tune
and get going
at more digital
and even more digital
zooming.
Jane played away
for her proud mother
but some in the audience
had more important things to do.
We left after the piece to take Jane
to the choir party where
we ran into Daniel Suo.
