Many thoughts go through my head during this event and afterwards. I can't tell you how much I enjoy watching families enjoy themselves together at this event. I think that many were very uplifted for the evening. Many smiles and laughs! Especially during "Picking Up Sticks". I know there are a couple of videos available of this if I can get my hands on them. Very fun to watch :) :)

It is also gratifying to have people (usually some men) approach me as they are leaving, as at least two of them did last night, and tell me that they don't like dancing, but they had a wonderful time doing it at the Regency Ball. How fun is that?

There were between 90 and 100 in attendance, and I have to say that I like that number better. Just seems to be more manageable.

Here are some pictures from my phone. They aren't the best quality, but you can get an idea of the night. Hoping that other attendees will be sending pictures and/or video to share!!

I think this is sweet Sadie :)
