After the dance



" The Walk Home" by Suzanne Conner

                        We have established that I am not a prissy girl , but my mother and her two sisters definitely were and are girly girls . There were three sisters , a redhead , a blonde and a brunette . They were beautiful young ladies ( still beautful even now ) and my grandmother liked to make sure they were dressed to the nines . You may have read my blog about the dresses I found up in Memaw's attic and the memories came flooding back . The sisters lived next door to the high school in Blountstown and were all very active in cheerleading , homecoming queen, and school activities while the only brother was a football player and all round good guy . I can just envision them walking home after the dance  and talking about the cute guys they danced with , the pretty dresses that they had seen and the fun that they had that night . Their radiance  was only outdone by the moon light , stars and fireflies twinkling about . This is not my memory , but I know these women and they haven't changed so much and they still like to dress up and just be beautiful .   Suzanne
