Three Years ago this weekend I attended Ring Figure with my then-boyfriend. Virginia Military Institute has a massive dance and whole weekend of events surrounding Ring Figure and the boys getting their class rings. You wear a gorgeous white dress and hope beyond hope that you don't drop the ring. I have loved seeing all the pictures on Instagram of all the girls getting all dressed up for the various events.
If any VMI girlfriends happen to stumble across my blog; I hope that Ring Figure is a really fun experience. I had an absolute blast and love looking back at all the pictures. I loved all the fun formal events at VMI. I loved getting dressed up and seeing Lane in his uniform. I feel the same way now about military balls and other formal events. I am so excited for the Brigade Ball and another chance to see my gorgeous husband in his dress blues.
As much as I whine about formal military events, I do love to see Steve in his dress blues. Nothing hotter than a man in uniform! Also, that uniform cost something like eleventy billion dollars, so I think he should wear it. A lot.
ReplyDeleteYou look so pretty!! I love hearing about different military traditions. The first ball I went to was at Fort Drum and I loooved it. I have loved all balls since then,but that one has a special place in my heart. :)
ReplyDeleteBy the way, I've been meaning to ask you, do you like it at Fort Drum? I liked it but many people I talk to don't.
