Cancer Ball 2009

This past Friday night we attended a fundraiser for the American Cancer Society.  I lost my dad to cancer in 1997 and like to support this charity when I can.  Supporting a charity, dressing up, dining and dancing – you can’t go wrong with that!

Many of my buddies from tennis attended.  Becky (in the black and brown) and I teach at the same school on the same team.

I love my dress.  I got it on sale for $27.00!!

Here are the guys all spiffed up.

I treated myself to an “up do” for the evening.  I love the way my hairdresser fixed it.  It still looked good the next morning!  The girl next to me is an old running friend that I hadn’t seen in a long time.  The room was freezing cold and I stayed wrapped up most of the evening.

I love my tennis friends on and off the court.  We have such a good time!

It was a fun night and a lot of money was raised for a very good cause.

  2. Great cause! Great event and your dress is divine. So proud of you for treating yourself to an up do, especially since your dress is such a bargain. xo

  3. I had to stop wearing my $13 dress to parties because I couldn’t help myself….when anybody complimented me I automatically told them what it cost! So now everybody in town knows about my $13 dress! Your bargain is gorgeous!
