Oklahoma All Academies Ball

We were able to get fancy a few nights ago for the Oklahoma All Academies Ball held at the Oklahoma City Golf and Country Club.  This is an annual ball hosted by the academy parent's club on a rotating basis meant to help them network and celebrate their accomplishments. Kristy helped me dress shop, Julie let me wear her shoes and Mom provided the great jewelry.

I got a manicure and a sparkly dress!
Drew Russell - this was their first time to actually meet but our paths have crossed so often. His older brother was a baseball coach of Grant's in 9th grade, we bought our Walking Trail lot from their family 14 years ago, and we live a few blocks from their family. Drew is graduating the Naval Academy this spring and has earned an amazing opportunity for his next step.

All cadets are introduced by Academy and walk through the saber ROTC.
The cadets were given a flower to give to their parents
