New Year’s Eve had finally arrived. My Dad, in order to keep my brother and I in suspense, had only told us that we were going to a “black tie event.” We knew we were in for something spectacular, but had absolutely no idea what.
That is until we walked into what seemed liked another world and saw the following sign:
We were attending an “Alice and Wonderland” ball! We arrived before the doors into the ballroom were open, which allowed us time to mingle with some interesting characters.
Then, as luck would have it, my brother spotted Alice! She seemed to be quite smitten with him, would you agree?
The bells chimed nines times, letting us know that it was nine o’clock and the doors would now be opening. It was time to follow Alice down the rabbit hole. . .
Haha that photo of your brother is priceless!
Cute huh? 🙂
Aww so cute!! The costumes are beaaaauutiful!
Just wait until you see the costumes in the next post!!!
Does your Dad need another daughter? HAHA
Haha, my Dad has a big heart so yeah!!! 🙂
LOVE your dress! Where on Earth did you get it??
That’s the dress I wore in my boudoir pics, you don’t remember?! It’s from the BCBG 2010 runway collection! It’s my favorite item in my closet 🙂
Oh how fun!!! What a delightful thing to surprise you with. 🙂 You have such a cool family, Andi. I love getting to see your adventures together. 🙂
I’m really lucky to have such a great family!!! I wish my parents traveled more, but thankfully my brother has the bug now. I can’t wait to show them Argentina in 2 months. 🙂

I don’t go to many balls, but they are pretty spectacular! This one in particular.
