Christmas Ball

So this year I had a date to Christmas Ball...STEVE! He was able to come for another week to visit me and it happened to work out that it was the week of the ball. It was such a wonderful night. First, Sarah suggested that we do the big reveal for our men (her beau came down for the ball as well) on the elegant stair cases of the main theatre. I didn't tell Steve a thing about my dress so it was a total surprise when I came down the stairs in a floor length, black, strapless, mermaid gown! And he looked so handsome in his suit with a red tie that matched my shoes and wrap. So classy.

After we went out to an Italian dinner with Sarah and Jonathan, we went back to our room for coffee and to kill time. At the ball, we walked around and took pictures with my friends and I enjoyed seeing everyone dressed up. They had a live swing band for a while but I forgot all my swing moves, so we pretty much stuck to slow dancing. Then the dance party started. So fun! I pretty much stuck with Erica and the gang for that and Steve even busted out a few moves. He was such a good sport :) Gotta get in some practice before our wedding dance party!
