Last Dance....

Friday night we got to go on one last fancy night out to the Governor's Mansion as the Governor threw a "going away" cocktail party. BB came up to watch the bambinos.

One last chance to wear my grandmother's fur stole....
The Governor and First Lady with their Cabinet saying a farewell speech...
The tent...

One of my closest friends...
Watching Marc.....
The band....

It's been a fun ride these past eight years, and I think the Governor has done an amazing job. I will definitely miss getting to go to the parties, but I'm so excited about the future of our state after this past election- for the first time since Reconstruction we have a Republican State House and Senate. There's only so much a Governor can do when he is being fought by the Legislature- things are definitely going to change now and hopefully for the better. :)

How great it was to have BB there to babysit ;) And how super-great it was for BB to get to babysit three angels!
The snow was such a bonus for my visit. Really, ya'll went to too much trouble pulling that one off! White Christmas in Alabama, white Championship game for Auburn. Are donkey's flying?
