Today was wonderful…75 degrees and sunny…AND, I found my dress for the Inaugural Ball!
Paige and I went shopping “early” this morning, and the third dress I tried on was “it”!
There will be pictures later, but for now, I want to keep it a surprise. But, I love it. It is very elegant, very classy…
Next mission: Find shoes to go with dress, with heels of at least 3 inches! (my dress is a bit long, especially since I am SO short).
Four days until D.C.!
WOO HOO! I am going to a ball next week! My parents have offered to pay for me and my date to go next week! I will know for sure hopefully on Monday if I am not too late to respond to the invitation, and then it will be dress shopping time!! 🙂
I can’t wait to go to Washington, D.C.!
This is my invitation to the Inaugural Ball (scanned in)…too bad they aren’t footing the bill for it, LOL. But wow, it is so nice! I think I’ll keep it for awhile!
Oh, to not be a poor college student!
Found out today through one of my contacts that I can get into a ball for a MUCH reduced price–but still a price that is MUCH too high for my college student budget…not to mention that I’d have to go dress shopping…
Sigh…well, at least I know that I COULD have gone!
Yes, that’s right. While I’m in Pennsylvania (7 days from now!), it’s supposed to SNOW! WOO HOO! I can’t wait! It’s also supposed to snow in D.C. next Tuesday, which isn’t all that great since I’ll be outside for at least 6 hours on Thursday (the temp will be 45 though, so it will be melted).
As long as the roads are clear enough for me to get to Baltimore on Sunday, to fly back to California, then all will be well.
Yay snow!
I just found out that cameras ARE allowed at the Inauguration!!! WOO HOO!
So, have I mentioned lately that I am SOOOOO excited about my upcoming trip to the East Coast?! I cannot wait to go to Pennsylvania and see all the people I love so dearly! It’s been over a year now since I last saw them, and I just can’t wait.
Yes, I am more excited about PA than I am about D.C…but I’m excited about both.
I talked to my “Pennsylvania Parents” today, just because I am so anxious to see them.
10 days!! 🙂
By the way, it is STILL raining here, and not just raining, but POURING. In the past four days we’ve had more than four times our seasonal average. Amazing.
It’s official! I have been given a ticket to the Presidential Inauguration!! I made my plane reservations today, and will be flying out in about 2 weeks! 🙂
I’m totally excited–this seems so surreal!
Even So, Joy
