Just a few prom photos to share of LoLo. I am not sharing any of her friends…just cause I shouldn’t without permission. I realized that might be a faux pas…and I have other concerns as well.
Picture perfect.
Her dress is actually gun metal gray and not black. Still, she worried she was not ‘colorful’ enough…silly kid, she radiates COLOR 24/7!
Isn’t it cool how her earring caught the sunlight…yeah, we totally planned that.
We really loved the back of this particular dress….and she has the ‘back’ for it.
To quote Lo: IT was amazing! THE BEST PROM EVER!!!
And she has been to three…so she knows. She danced all night long and came home just after midnight…with a few less blingys on her dress. OY.
***
On Monday morning I checked my feedjit widget on my sidebar and I saw someone from Oregon was flying through my blog like a crazed maniac clicking on my photos…well not ALL my photos; just the ones of the girls and I.
Yes. I know. ICK.
If you could have seen the visions I was picturing…I had to wash my eyes out with soap.
burn.
The only thing I could do at the time is pull off some of the recent photos and then I realized the perv was going too fast for me. I finally switched my blog to “PRIVATE” and the creeper was blocked.
I resolved then and there not to post anymore photos of the kids.
Then I thought, heck that would be boring. So, I will monitor and I might eventually switch my blog to private (for invited readers only) just to keep from washing my eyes out with soap.
double burn.
Anyone else have any issues with this?

Your daughter is beautiful and so is her dress! I'm sorry you're having issues with some perv cruising your blog, I hope it gets resolved.

Oh jeez. I don't think I have ever had visiting preverts. I think it is extremely important to be polite as a blog visitor, and this must make you feel like a peeping Tom has burglarized your house? The star sunburst on your daughter's photo = AMAZING 🙂

She looks so beautiful! And I think her color choice for the dress is classic and will look great in photos from years to come (versus her neon pink counterparts!)….and I don't have a problem with photos probably because it is just me + husband + Beagle in most of them. Perhaps watermark them? I know some blogs have guards in place to prevent the copy/paste.

She and the dress are both beautiful. I love her eyes! You did good on those!!! The dress did not need any bright color because it is a sophisticated style. Color would have detracted from the design.I don't know how to monitor the activity on my blog either but if anybody went after my photos, we would definitely know the person had a problem – – – cuz we're old people!I can think of many punishments to give to hackers and the pervs. It is so wrong of them to ruin hard-working people's property and make us concerned for the safety of our family.
