Planning a Valentine's Ball

T and I will (prayerfully) be elected to lead our fraternal organization in 2013, and we have been doing some major planning to get ready. The biggest project we are working on is the annual Sweetheart Ball. This event is a charitable fundraiser, and it is centered around Valentine's Day. In fact, the event will be exactly one year from today, and you are all welcome!

Thrift #12 56th Annual Sweetheart Ball


Yesterday, we visited the venue, Comfort Inn and Suites on New York Avenue, for a walk-through of the space, and we got excited all over again. Ebony, the sales manager, was so helpful, and the space fit our needs perfectly. Needless to say, we will be signing a contract on Tuesday to secure next February's date.
Planning this event with T will give me some real insight into how we will work together to plan other things (the wedding, our son's birthdays, etc). So we will see how this goes. For now, I am just happy we decided on the location so we can get the "ball" rolling.
