This Saturday night was our first Daddy-Daughter Dance here in Shanghai. The event was sponsored by the girls' Daisy, Brownie and Girl Scout troops. Held at the Radisson, Pudong the party was done right with a buffet style dinner (complete with chicken nuggets, french fries, hamburgers, rice and noodles...oh, yeah, and fish, beef stroganoff, salad, etc.)
Kendall was a little shy at first, and clung to daddy for a bit. Once her friend Tiffany showed up, however, off she went...leading the congo line, and a walk-like-an-egyptian dance. Veronica, from the beginning was off finding friends, new and old alike. For a while, the dads were wondering what happened to their dates. Eventually, they both showed up and actually wanted to dance with me, so I felt like I wasn't stood up afterall.
My two girls looked absolutely beautiful in their silk dresses. We were all decked out in our new clothes we bought the week before from one of the many local fabric markets where you can get custom made clothes at very, very good prices...if you haggle enough for it.
Anyway, we had fun, and the girls enjoyed themselves. Wasn't the same without MacKenzie, Uncle Shane (pinch-hitting as #1), Grandpa and Pap, but we still enjoyed ourselves.
Have a look at some of our photos...more to share once we get the official photos from the photographer. Click on the link below to see more.
