Valentine's Ball

Because of test week we didn't get to celebrate Valentine's on the 14th, so we postponed it one week later when we went to the IUPUI Valentine's Ball. It was semi-formal with dinner and dancing included at the Children's Museum downtown Indy. I felt like I was in High School again, getting excited to get all dolled up for a dance. I think I was mostly excited because we were going out without the kids.

There's a huge pillar of glass-blown objects in the center of the staircase, pretty cool.
Dinner and dancing was so nice. Here's some friends at the dance: Candace, Christy, Jennalee, Kimberly and me.

I had Scotty wear a pink tie, so we'd match like you did at Prom...
I guess I hinted to Scott that I had all these empty vases lying around the house, never with any flowers in them... so he got me a beautiful one with a love letter attached. The love note I had been asking for over two years and I finally got one! It was sweet.

I made Scotty these chocolate truffles dipped in white chocolate, nuts and peanut butter milk chocolate. He was in heaven!

Hey Jamie this is your cousin Emily. I was just checking out your blog because your Mom told me you and Jenna had one. This is random, but I know Jenalee. I used to work with her at Los Hermanos back in Provo. Small world.
