A Bit of the Christmas Ball

I believe a good time was had by all. :)

We had the loveliest building ever, and Christian decorated it magnificently. There was lots of delicious and pretty food. Everyone came in their beautiful clothes and very best manners, and we danced five classic Regency dances.




This dance is called The Progressive Gordon.
