Kolby's Medicine Ball

Last night we went to Kolby's med school ball - "Casino Royal."  I can't remember the last time Kolby and I got dressed up and enjoyed a fancy night out together.  To be honest, the school throws these events on a pretty frequent basis, but because we don't drink, we usually toss the flyers put on our sweats, and just stay home and play the "Ticket to Ride" instead.  I don't know what made us change our minds, but I'm really glad we did.  
I'm not going to lie, polishing up was an all-day affair filled with flash backs of high school prom preparations - you know, finding the right accessories, shoes, skin color, etc.  But in the end, the ball was a blast.  We danced, visited with friends, and (all in the name of charitable contributions) hit the blackjack, roulette and craps tables.  It was a much needed night of fun with my love Kolby.  Maybe now we won't be too scared or lazy to venture out to a few more of these parties.

I'm so glad you were able to go play! How fun. You look beautiful all dressed up. (When you were talking about getting primped in high school, I envisioned us picking out outfits, etc.) I love your bangs/hair. Very impressed you cut them yourself. :)
Love ya!

Your hair looks really GREAT! Sounds like you guys had a lot of fun and if you need to go to more in the furture, know that you have a great babysitter anytime, really I just want June cause she plays so well with Ella. It's a win-win right?

check you out - FANCY! You look really good Jess. I think I might be crushing on you a bit---Well...it's either a crush or I'm totally jealous about how great you look at 28. Darrin is taking me out tuesday night on a fancy dinner date for our 9 year wedding anniversary....I'm already stressing over what to wear, since all I own are ratty t-shirts and I buy my pants at DI. I'm doomed.
