Cinderella wants to go to the ball!

So this past weekend was so amazing! As you know, my parent's came down and although I didn't get to spend much time with them, it was great to have them here and I know Logan enjoyed getting to spend time with them! I'm sure he got to eat whatever he wanted and stay up as late and he could last! ;)

This weekend was Evan's battalion's birthday ball, and also our last ball with our best friends Megan and Greg. Greg is getting out of the military in a couple months so we all wanted to go to "adult prom" as we like to call it, one more time together. This was without a doubt the best ball we have been to! We ALL had a blast! And with a ball that was mainly Staff and brass, we were definitely the life of the party! ;) We stayed at the gorgeous Hilton on the river and everything was beautiful.

Gator Ball '11 - My favorite one of us

I will definitely miss going to these without her..



And I cannot forget to mention, one of Evan's best friends Matt proposed to his girlfriend! We all gathered outside the hall to take some pictures and we just thought they were going to go first. But Matt surprised us all when he dropped down and one knee and proposed to Bri! It was a great photo-op and we already had our cameras ready! She was more than surprised and it was the cutest thing ever!! I am so so happy for the two of them! No one deserves happiness more than Matt and I hope they have a long and happy life together!




The rest are just a few pictures to highlight the night.


The ladies & the gentlemen.

When we returned home from the ball on Sunday we had a great breakfast at IHop and then mom and dad got on the road back to WV. We spent the rest of the day relaxing and recuperating. 

Evan got the day off on Monday for going to the ball and it was nice to have an extra long weekend. We cleaned out the garage on Monday, packed a little bit and enjoyed the gorgeous 80 degree weather! Another successful weekend in the books!
Life is wonderful. I am so blessed.
