Re: The ball, I thought our little team did pretty damn good, but I realized late in the game (as in, Saturday morning, about 11am) that we were over-extending ourselves, which meant that when Allie offered to help, I had no idea what to delegate to her, because we were so pressed for time. But I think it's awesome that she offered, even if we couldn't put her to much use. :) Also, a big 'ol thank you to Morgan who absolutely saved our butts in the end with her marvelous tapestries.

It does make me want a do-over, at least as far as publicity and decorating go. It would be great to get another themed mask ball in there somewhere, but I also see the problems with competing activities at events like Crown. Still, I had a blast when all was said and done. Thank you for organizing it! :)
