There was a live band playing music all night, and people were free to dance...Dan, however, wasn't too keen on the idea, and I was wearing 20 inch heels, so we skipped that activity. We got a professional picture taken inside the art gallery. There was also a silent auction, but all the prizes up for grabs were too expensive for us! They also had "It's a Beautiful Life" showing outside on a big screen TV with a bunch of couches set up for lounging. The rest of the night we were free to roam around the grounds, and because the property is so exquisite, we spend most of the night wandering around taking fun pictures. It was a nice night for a good cause.
And now, picture overload:
I like to take pics of myself while in the car...no, I wasn't the driver, this time.
Dan made a new friend.

Belly dancers

My handsome man-some
These guys were on stilts and reminded me of the scary guys on Lord of the Rings
Us **post eating, I might add**
Dan and Ron, the owner/operator of the property/event
The castle, and yes, it's located in Ron's "backyard"
I leave Dan alone for two minutes, and this is where I find him
Yee-haw!
When I was in third grade, my favorite thing to do at recess was swing, meanwhile singing Ace of Base's "I saw the Sign" at the top of my lungs. Every time I swing, I think of this. No lie.
Serenading the crowd
We had a lot of fun! If you missed it this year, you need to come next year!
