H's Birthday and R's Prom

For these, I require sustenance

1. Baked the cake layers
2. Altered the prom dress (with helpers)
This was my first time sewing on sequinned fabric. I went slow and used the old Singer - only broke one needle. 
Alterations included two side darts to suck in the waist and make the back zipper lay flat; shortening the straps; and hemming. 
After hemming and shortening the straps, there were enough materials left to sew a little drawstring bag for her phone, ticket, makeup, etc.

3. Frosted the cake. How do my kids keep getting so old while I stay the same age??

4. Took pictures of the prom goers

5. Celebrated H's birthday
6. Went to bed.
