Marine Corp Ball 2012


The Marine Corp Ball was held last night here.  Dan wasn't able to make it, but thankfully my friend Sara was able to go in his place with me!  We had a great time - sat with friends, enjoyed the presentation, the yummy food and amazing creme brulee, danced a bit, chatted with friends and took pictures! Oh, and definitely people watched with all the fun uniforms, dresses and copious amounts of tattoos... :)

 Trying to take a picture of me on the way home - notice the guys staring in the car behind me...

And a different angle - much better - and then I realized I was driving without a shawl on to cover my shoulders, so I quickly put it back on!

you look beautiful! sad that Dan wasn't bale to be there. Sara's dress actually reminded me of one you wore to one of these before.
