I give up on event summaries.

Regency Exhibition Ball 2009: Lansing, MI

• In the car moving by 10:03 a.m. as per Mike McCarty's orders.
  
• Went to The Dressmaker's Shop in Leslie with lachwen and Mike.
  
• Went to Mike's parents' house, wrapped Gwendolyn in duct tape, got ready for ball.
  
• Went to ball, saw Julie.
  
• Danced lots.
  
• Had fun.
  

I'll probably sit down and type up my customary blow-by-blow later, just for my own reference, but for now, enjoy!


Gwendolyn, Julie, Mike, Katie



All wrapped up.


I made Mike cut her out so I wouldn't screw it up.




Gwendolyn and Mike very kindly stopped by and let me see my grandparents (who live right in Lansing) for a few minutes on the way to the ball.

And then there was dancing:








Then we took some group pictures to commemorate the occasion.






Julie and I took some pictures while random strangers raved over Mike and Gwendolyn. "I never get noticed," indeed. Whatever! ;)




We're cute.






Now that my I-have-an-event-every-weekend month of March is over, maybe I can go clean my apartment and go grocery shopping and all those sorts of things! I wouldn't have traded any of it for the world, though. Good events, great friends, wonderful times. And some pretty nice pictures, too.

Yeah, you're cute! :D Man, I wish I could've been there!

Y'know what? I have a sort-of Regency dress I made up in college, using a Simplicity pattern as a base (yeah, shut up) and LOTS of research from online and Costume in Detail. It's in a woven cotten JUST LIKE YOUR SILK! The checks a little smaller, maybe; 1/4 or a little larger. But the same color and proportions. Ee!
