REAGAN GALA

We went to the REAGAN gala on Friday night. The gala supports all of the sports clubs at the high school. 
We got a table with some of our friends. Here is Michelle and Chris.
My very sweet friend Val and her hubby Denny went with us. I am so excited that they went. Val lived in S.A. for awhile and then her hubby got transfered to Arizona. After missing SA so much her hubby got transfered back to SA in January....yea we are all so excited. Friday was a big day for them, they closed on a new home and made it official they are here to stay. I just love her and her family, our family's mesh so well. 
Earlier in the week, I found out that the gala theme was "go green." and the dress was casual, which meant wear you fav Reagan attire. I was excited now I can take back the outfit that I bought. I went out to find some cute leopard shoes to wear with jeans and a t-shirt. I went to DSW wear house since they just opened a new one by my house. I'm looking, and looking and looking and I turn the corner and see this bright, grass green shoes they are the perfect Reagan green color....so I had to have them. Thank goodness they were on sale ( I guess no one really buys grass green shoes) so I got them for $14.00 yea,,,,I thought what a bargain. I will probably never wear them again, so I don't feel too guilty since they were only $14.00. 
Me and hip hubby! I wore my bling,bling shirt and if you look closely you can see the cute Reagan necklace that I made. 
My mom and dad came over to watch the kids for us and hubby let her know that we were not going to bid on anything that we did not need. So , my mom and I are still laughing at the fact the hubby had to get the batboy for Connor in the silent auction and in the live auction hip hubby got carried away on bidding on the football boy for one of our big high school games for Kyle.  SO after hip hubby spent $$$$ my mom and I have not stopped teasing him......

Oh, cute cute shoes! I love that color green. We have a similar dinner for our local sports every year too, and we always end up bidding on something we don't need!
