The University of Richmond has an annual tradition of having a Ring Dance, or junior prom, where all of the junior girls wear white dresses, get walked down the big fancy stairs that inspired the staircase in Gone With the Wind while being escorted by their fathers or dates and are handed their class rings. It was a great time that involved Mommy, Daddy, Grandmama, Josh, Elizabeth and a whole lot of white dresses. And then, of course, a lot of alcohol and drunk dancers.
There was also an incident that involved a smashed glass on the dance floor and the back of my foot. There was blood but some alcohol wipes and band aides made it all better. We still left early, about 11:30 p.m., because the dance floors were packed with a lot of drunk people, who are difficult to dance with.
But anyway...Pictures!

Elizabeth and I. See looked gorgeous!
We did have a great time and I am so glad I was able to experience it. Now I just have to find another excuse to wear that dress...
