The Marine Ball


On November 20th, the Marine guards at the Embassy hosted the annual Marine Birthday Ball. This is an important Embassy event especially at smaller posts. Emily's friend Rachael (who is also our neighbor) invited her to help decorate the Embassy atrium. The event was lots of work, but was lots of fun too. (More than once, Em had flashbacks of wedding planning.) We think the results were pretty impressive. Just check out the photos…

Emily's hairdo: Yes, it is mostly fake hair. She let the stylist do whatever she wanted to. Yes, it was quite heavy.
