Awe, how precious :)
Every year, the Friends of the Library in our little town of Andrews puts together a fundraiser for the summer arts program. The theme of the Mystery Dinner this year was Prom, so we got to dress up as if we were going to the prom! We got our pictures taken in the traditional prom pose in front of the ghetto backdrop and enjoyed a great four course meal during the performance.
This was our table of awesome friends! Andrea, the woman in the blue and only other blond haired woman at our table, was a main organizer of the event. There was a great turnout and about $2500 was raised! It was fun to try and guess who the murderer was, but none of us got it :( No $200 prize for us...it was tricky!!
She was one of the main actresses in the show and was an absolute hoot!
Natalie was also in the show and did a fabulous job! Shanam and I had so much fun, we can't wait to do it next year...that is, if we're still here :)
P.S. A few of you may recognize the "beautiful gown" I'm wearing. I've worn it on many occasions...I got it for $15 my freshman year of college...10 years ago! LOL. And it has come in handy! 3 college dances, Halloween twice, "Academy Awards" as Nicole Kidman, Mascarade Party, New Year's Eve Party and now a mystery dinner. Am I forgetting anything? The seams are coming loose and I found a stain on the front of it, but I just can't bare to let it go!

I still have my clearance formal dress from freshman year too! I just can't part with it either.
PS...your boobs look big in the first picture. love it. :)
How fun is that! I would love to do something like this.
LOL!
Bre--I knew you'd love seeing the dress again and I'm so glad you still have yours! BFF dresses forever! Hahaha!
Tracy--I can totally see you putting these dinners on! You'd be great! There's a website where they get their scripts from every year. I'll try to find out what it is!!
That does sound like a fun evening. And I love how much use you have gotten from your dress, that is so frugal. I've never understood why some girls think they can only wear a dress once.
I love those dinners! We are supposed to have one of those for FHE soon and I really wish that I could go :( Such a travesty that I cannot...
