Last Minute Gift Idea and Pictures From The Ball (FINALLY! :)

Posted on 10:12 by mark khandry
Have you got a girlfriend or relative that need a gift, but you're all out of ideas? Maybe they already seem to have everything, or you just need to find something that's unique without breaking your budget.

Take a look at these lovely Mary Jane Chinese Shoes from Natasha's Cafe!


They comes in loads of great colors and textures, including lace, mesh, brocade and embroidered. I really have to get myself a pair (or 3 pair) of these - I have been watching them for years now and they just look too comfy and adorable! These would be perfect for anyone who does English Country dancing (or any other type, really) - so cute and flattering! And the very best thing is that they are so affordable, ranging from $9-$24 (depending on style). Take a peek and see if these are just the thing for someone on your Christmas list. Also take a browse around the rest of the store - there are loads of unique and clever gift ideas!

Ok, so I finally dug through all the photos of the ball and managed to find a few that are nice and show my dress pretty well. I am still kicking myself for not getting full portraits earlier in the day (I hope to do that sometime soon - my aunt just gave me an awesome new display model that fits all of my stuff beautifully and I will be able to get some great detail shots of the dress).

Anyway...enjoy these few shots - thanks to Michael Thomas and Jordan Niednagel for the pictures! :)


Here Lydia and I arrive fashionably late (thanks Lyds for staying and helping me! :) and are greeted by Rebekah and Melanie, who appears to be telling me something positively fascinating. ;)



Doing a dance demonstration with my cousin Jon and Melanie and Micaiah. What fun!



Playing "Northanger Abbey" with a bunch of my best friends. Ah, yes... the intrigue was really something. ;) That's Melissa and I together with Melanie below and Lydia coming down from above.


Here I am hugging my "twin" Melanie - I love this picture. :)

Thanks for all the prayers for my back - I am doing much better! Have a fabulous weekend, stay warm and enjoy the snow! :)
