"Evening Gowns n' Teacups"

"I can't explain myself, I'm afraid, Sir, because I'm not myself, you see." -Alice



We had ourselves a little trip into the RABBIT HOLE,
and danced the entire fall down.


We went together,
8 people,
4 dates,
1 big smile,
at BYU's Alice in Wonderland Preference Ball.


Oh yes, our feet hurt,
but dancing away our stresses
was so very worth it
{even when our abdomens were being squeezed by unrelenting fabric}.


Our tea was hot cider,
devilishly sugared.


And yet,
the drinks were definitely not
the sweetest things there.


Never, a frown was found.


And what would an Alice in Wonderland ball be
without a heated croquet match?


The Queen was in agreement.


A lovely appearance by
the Hatter and Alice
delighted us all.


why am I so ridiculously short
The gowns, the teacups, the dancing,
'twas all so brillig.

  2. Looks like so much fun! I wish I had a reason to dress up in a beautiful dress and doll up... *sigh* alas, I
    have no reason or excuse...

    Well, short or not, you and your date have a perfect height ratio. In fact, the height difference between the two is perfect, you look so attractive together.
