Black Tie and Boots Inauguration Ball




Daughter Jen and husband Rob~
Rob is from New York City....therefore he needed Boots to wear....and then his Tux pants length needed to be adjusted as boots have an higher heel.
LOL~ He and Jen looked smashing, if I do say so myself.
With a closet full of dresses...nothing would do but a Patriotic Blue Ball dress for Jen.

The event was held at the fabulous Gaylord Hotel at the National Harbor, which sits majestically on the Potomac River~ 12,000 guests attended to enjoy the Black Tie and Boots Inauguration Ball.
We did an overnight to babysit for Jen and Rob~
I did these photos~ and sorry they are not too focused...boo hoo...
They were driving in a stretch limo with 28 other friends...other photos will be posted ...
from the Ball Room via Jennifer's camera.
About midnight, she sent me a telephone photo of Denzel Washington who was among many well known people there...

THEY came home saying it was the largest event they have ever attended~ the entire event was OVER THE TOP~ They were full of news saying how it was PERFECT~
the entertainment, food, and excitement was OVER THE TOP. They reported the press was out in force and people-watching was high on their list of what contributed to a fabulous evening.
Tonight~ another babysitting gig for another daughter going to yet another Ball.

He is a photo of their tickets~
As a Mother, happiness was seeing them so happy.
