A little Cinderella

It was my favorite time of year- Marine Corps Birthday Time!  Dan's Unit's Birthday Ball was early this year, the first Friday of October.  There are over 200, I think, that are put on Between Oct 1 and Nov 30, so it is a little crazy!   Dan is part of MCIPAC, so that's the Ball we attended.  This year, Marian said yes, she was interested in coming too.  So she did.  And she said it was more interesting and fun than she expected.

Callie was our official photographer.

It was hard to tell when she was taking pictures, or even if she was taking pictures!

So some of them were a surprise.  Actually, looking at the 25 pictures was kind of a surprise.

And the fact that these are the best ones.... well, you get what you pay for!

And you know I stayed for the cake!  It was unexciting, but tasty.  And it was Birthday Cake!
