Here are some pictures that have red, white, and blue from the 233rd Annual Marine Ball in keeping with the current CAN YOU BELIEVE IT news.
My dress and Patrick's tux were both custom made here. It's so cheap to do and you don't have to worry about getting a bad fit. Unless, of course, you move back to the US and eat Chipotle and Chick-fil-a and Cold Stone all the time, in which case you're screwed. And this is mere months away for us. Below is a picture with some friends (from left) me, Pat, Sam, Ben, Bonnie, and Ramiro. In case you can't tell, Raj's Fashions were doing the pictures. They make clothes for lots of embassy people. You couldn't miss them at the event, they were the ones with the turbans.
There was a live band and people actually danced, crazy huh? Pat would not dance with me when they played an Earth Wind and Fire song. They played 3 or 4 Bee Gees songs which was fantastic and I said, "All I need is some Earth Wind and Fire and I'll be a happy girl." Thanks Pat. The entertainment also included Thai Elvis, Thai Johnny Cash, and Thai Tom Jones. "Sex Bomb" with a Thai accent: priceless!
Check out Sawyer's new crocs. Arlyn brought them for Mr. S. when she came to babysit during the ball. They're a bit big, but he's really (finally) hitting some major growth spurts and those feet are looking monstrous lately.
More Sawyer news:
The way he says "yellow" makes me want to squish him really bad. He says, "Yallow" so clearly. That's funny to me because he has all sorts of other words that don't make lots of sense, but I know what they are. He loves giving the different colors of the taxis around, but you need to do some decoding:
mink cocky = pink taxi
meek car = big car (usually a bus)
kah money, kah money = he's referring to me saying "Khap kun kah" or thank-you and telling me to pay the taxi driver
Sawyer asked "mama wee wee?" the other day. No, Sawyer, mommy doesn't have one. Today during lunch while we watched Obama's speech, Sawyer started speaking in a very demanding tone looking left and right, I guess making his own speech. I hope he doesn't become a politician.

Why didn't you share the rest of your night with everyone? Tell everyone what you did when you got home!
Nice try Pat. Like I want to share throwing back a fifth of Jack and doing a striptease for the guards downstairs. I would never disclose personal info like that.
