Military Gala

Last night we got all dressed up, and went to our first Military Gala. This was to celebrate the end of the deployment, the end of a unit, and the start to new experiences. We had such a great time, and I always love seeing Nick all dressed up in his blues. This time, with his Sergeant stripe! 


By the time I found out about this, I didn't have time to order a dress online, so I set out looking for a modest, or at least mostly modest dress. I finally found one, for only $50! Trouble was, it had no sleeves. I cut off the weird bow thing on one of the straps, and turned it into a hair piece. After my plans for sleeves didn't work out, I frantically searched for a black jacket, the day before. That afternoon I finally found one! I ended up hitting the top of my budget, but I don't regret it for one minute. I may not have had the fanciest dress, the most sparkly, form fitting or anything along those lines, but I held to my standards, and I think, looked the classiest out of all of the women there.
