Hello everyone,

I haven't really been on in a while so I wanted to update you on what happened last Saturday.

We, my family and a friend, went to a Victorian ball that was hosted by a homeschoolling friend for something with her Girl Scouts. We got to learn the dances of the time which were kind of like the dances in Pride and Prejudice, if you ever saw the movies or any movie set in that time you know what I'm walking about, a lot of steps, skipping, and turning. They were a lot of fun and easy to learn and I got to dance with a bunch of guys I don't know.

The gowns that some of the women wore were so pretty. The gowns had big hoop skirts and they looked more Civil War era(sp) than Victorian. My dress didn't look Victorian at all. It looked more early 1800s. :P

A guy, that had asked our friend, Tawnia, and my older sister Jennifer to dance already, asked me to dance the walts with him. I was some what woried and excited to daces a walts But I guess I did pretty well because my mon said I looked like I had done it before and he said I was very good. :D

I would like to show you some pictures of the ball but they aren't on any site that would allow me to put them up here :( so here is a link to my sisters blog she put some of the pictures up because she has a photobucket acount. (I'm the one in the pink dress)
