Heritage Festival!

So for complicated reasons involving I'm tired, today's outfit will actually go up tomorrow. But, I couldn't wait to show you my DRESS! This week was so much fun, and it was a total blur - I'm still processing the fact that it's over and I'm home. Yesterday, we went to the university where the Festival took place at 4:30 and immediately got into our fancy clothes. We then had two hours to sit in the green room moaning about how hungry we were (my friend Will and I figured out that the only things we'd had to eat all day were a donut, a kolache, and a glass of tea.) and how nervous we were about our bows. (Yep. The girls had to bow as we were presented.) Next we had the actual two-hour-long ceremony, where my friend was chosen as part of the royal court (Congratulations, Elizabeth!!), and then the ball. After the ball, we all crashed on the futon and watched Anchorman until 3 in the morning. So I'm tired! But I had a ton of fun, and I GOT TO WEAR THIS DRESS I STILL CAN'T BELIEVE HOW PERFECT IT IS.
