The Seabee Ball

The 70th annual Seabee Ball was this past Saturday. Sadly, Matty had to work the ball again this year as the planner, organizer and emcee. However, I was SO happy that as my date in his place, I was able to bring my spanish partner, teacher and amazing friend Rocio!

She looked stunning!I cleaned up alright too!Enjoying some tapas, sherry and sunshine during the cocktail hour.Such a great location!The amazing sherry pourer was there again this year! Only this year, not pregnant, I could enjoy a glass!It is the neatest thing to see. He dips his sherry dipper down into the barrel, scoops some out, and then while pouring, brings the head of the dipper probably 2 feet above the glass. AND HE DOESN'T LOSE A DROP! SO cool to watch. Matt standing gaurd over barrels of wine and sherry. Haha. Not really.RIGGED! As you know, Matt both planned and emceed the entire evening, so it looked a little sketchy when his wife's ticket number was called for one of the prizes drawn that evening.Once the ceremony and formalities were over, Matt was able to kick back and have fun with his friends. I'd say some of them had a bit TOO much fun! ;)We were able to sneak a peek in the amazing wine cellar and snag a pic with the endless rows of barrels. It was amazing!
Fin did GREAT with Rocio's mom (his Spanish granny), Matt did awesome as emcee, the whole evening went smoothly, the food was yummy, the wine was tasty, the dancing was silly... what more could I have asked for?!?!! Maybe a little more time with the hubster? Ah well... next time!What a spectacular night.
