We attended our first "Dining Out" since being in the navy. I went and found a dress last week and we had Diron's dress blue jacket altered to match his rank since he just made lieutenant. We got all fixed up and arranged to have Satchel's teacher (Thank goodness!!!) to come sit with him on the boat since he would already be asleep. It started at 7:30 and lasted until 11:30. We had a really good time. It was fun with all of the joking and tradition. The best part is that all we had to do is walk about 20 yards up our dock to the Hilton ballroom! We came back at a 15minute break to check on Satchel....And, nobody had to drive! We just walked right back down to the boat(: In the spring, the Thursday and Friday night deck parties and jazz nights will start at the Hilton overlooking our marina so that should be a lot of fun. If anyone comes to visit, you'll have that as a plus (:
OH my goodness, you guys are so beautiful! That is awesome about pulling right up to the hotel too!
