One of Mary Conlee's favorite events EVER is the Father Daughter Ball. When we drive by the Furniture Market #5 building on Coley Road, she points it out and says, "There's the Father Daughter Ball." She's right...it is there--once a year! Horse and carriage rides, pictures, dancing, walking on the cat walk, eating fancy food, and getting autographs have always been fun for Mary Conlee. But having her Daddy all to herself is definitely the best part of the evening!
This was Judd's fifth time to escort his little "belle of the ball." I have determined that he loves going just as much as she does. This was also Mary Conlee's first year to wear a ball gown rather than a church dress. It was special for her to wear the tiara that I brought back to her from the Tower of London. In keeping with this year's Masqerade Ball theme, MC came home with Mardi Gras masks and beads and even a fuzzy teddy bear! Last year, she danced so much she broke her add-a-pearl necklace. Cole and I found all the pieces long after the ball was over. I'm pleased to report that everything was in tact when her Daddy brought her home at the stroke of 9:00 p.m.! Thanks, Judd, for all the pictures and videos, as well as texts you sent to make me feel a part of the ball, too!
