The Army Ball!!
This evening I attended my first ever Army Ball with Andy :) Andy's unit organized the ball due to their upcoming deployment and will have another one next summer when they get home :)
I had no idea what to expect and I really enjoyed it! The evening started with an hour or two of socializing, greeting the squadron commander and getting pictures taken. Then the formal section of the evening began with the creation of the grog, speeches and a dinner. We sat with Ruth & Steve and Anna & Jeff - their wives are going to be my lifeline while Andy is gone this year :)
After dinner we spent a little more time socializing and I think by the end of the night I had meet every single officer in his squadron!
I will say, I learned 2 things this evening:
1) Don't underestimate the amount of alcohol a squadron of soldiers will consume
2)don't wear 3-4inch heals to a long formal event :)
