Jordan started Junior High the year we moved to Washington. She had done 6th grade at a middle school in El Segundo, CA so we were excited to enter Junior High with a little experience. She was still a new kid...at a new school...but at least she was still the youngest grade, so most of the kids were starting Skyview for the first time.
Here is Jordan the summer before starting Junior High (7th grade). She had super long hair, wore make-up once in a while, didn't have a phone (only an ipod), and was just entering the phase of getting dropped off at places like the mall! (And of course,7th grade is one of the ONLY years I didn't take a picture on the first day of school!!!)
Fast forward 3 years...she's glued to her phone, won't leave the house without make-up, booked up just about every weekend, on the verge of driving herself wherever she wants to go...AND...
...off to CRUISE with all her friends.
I love the way the boys ask creatively. It was nice that Jordan had a friend who she knew was going to ask her, so she just had to wait...and he actually managed to surprise her!
I got to do her hair...we tried the waterfall braid and I think it turned out so pretty!
Then she went to her friend Anni's house to get ready and take pictures.
Then they met at the school and bused out to the cruise ship...where they danced, ate and cruised around the Puget Sound for a couple hours. Kids these days are so lucky!!
Here she is with Kya on the last day of school. 9th Grade and Junior High COMPLETE.

I can't believe how much younger Jordan looks in the picture before 7th grade--or how much change could happen in only three years! I love how you did Jordan's hair for the cruise.
