sass and class in the bluegrass: Fireman's Ball // Mere's Play

Happy Monday ya'll. I am off today. I am happy to have today to recover from a busy weekend and to prepare to work the next 5 days! We had a super busy weekend. Meredith was in her school's production of Granny's Secret Recipe both Saturday and Sunday. Saturday Nick and I went to the Fireman's Ball that the Ladies Auxillary puts together. They did an AMAZING job as usual. We had a blast! Maybe too much fun haha. Get ready for some picture overload!!

First up though how cute is my little fox?! This is her 3rd year being part of St. Cecilia's Drama Club. Each February they do a play and this year the younger kiddos took part in Granny's Secret Recipe. It was so cute and they did a great job. Then the older kids followed up with Into the Woods. There are so many talented students. I am really happy Meredith can be a part of this. I feel like it has brought her out of her shell.

As soon as the play was over on Saturday, I went to get my hair all fancied up and Nick headed to the Hotel Covington where we were staying so we didn't have to drive home after the Ball. Holy Cow, this place is out of this world. We all said we wanted to move in. It was so luxurious. If you can book a night here, do it. You will not be disappointed. The décor is very modern. Plus there are so many cool places to go in Covington for a night on the town. Oh and this hotel thinks of EVERYTHING to make your stay more fun !!

See I told you they thought of Everything!! I will let you use your imagination to what all is included in this little Lover's kit!

Breakfast in Bed Sunday morning. Why not end the weekend with some room service?! Go to Hotel Covington! It will refresh you soul!

I met Nick at the hotel after my hair appointment to finish getting ready and several of our friends met us too for a little pre game in our room with some snacks and drinks. The Ball was held at the Radisson in Covington as well. We started the night with an opening ceremony followed by food, LOTS of drinks, and dancing. It is so fun to get dressed up and forget all the responsibilities that are a constant stress. I almost felt like Cinderella on Sunday morning as I was getting ready to head back home lol. Nick had to get up and go to work that morning so I slept in and ordered room service and started to feel semi normal again. But what a fun night!!

Dress is from Rent The Runway

This is not the original dress I Chose. My dress came Thursday and it most definitely was not what I ordered. It did not look good on me AT ALL!! I called them all frantic and said I needed a dress by the next day! This was my 2nd choice when I was trying to decide which one to go with. RTR was great though. I had this dress by the next day!! I am glad my original choice wasn't available after all. But at that moment of panic I sure wasn't. The best part of this dress was that it had pockets. I think all dresses should have pockets. Def a must have ya'll!!

Steph and I didn't have to worry about our lipstick coming off!! This is after dinner and several drinks! Thanks Lipsense!!

My friends are gorgeous. I am so lucky to call these women close friends. Being a fire wife is not easy. They make it more fun and bearable when it gets to you!
