Last week Paul and I, along with our friend and her daughter (the daughter is in the process of choreographing a Regency dance for her school's production of Pride and Prejudice) went to St. Mark's Church in Evanston for their biweekly English Country Dancing. I spontaneously decided to dress up. My recent weight loss enabled me to fit back into my Regency stays, and a gown I made several years back. I even found enough time to do a Regency hairstyle.
The dancing was fun. We were all a bit confused, but the more experienced people helped guide us into the proper places. I would like to do this again soon. Below are some photos of me in my gown, and my hairstyle. (Please excuse my wrinkled appearance; although I had ironed my dress prior to dressing, it got very wrinkled in the car ride to pick up our friends and drive to the church.)

Please do come back! Next time I probably will not be home sick. I'd love to see you. You look wonderful! :-)
Thanks! I was sad you were sick. We did have lots of fun though. I had forgotten how much I enjoyed it!
