11/21/2009 Dallas Margarita Ball for childrens charities

The Dallas Margarita Ball is the largest attended annual invitation only gala in the world. Each attendee donates at least one new, unwrapped toy. This event requires an invite, I was invited by Allan Sanders.
My daughter, Christina, took photos of me before I left home.

Allan had a suite preparty in his suite... I went to several other preparties too! so fun! Here's Chris and I at a suite preparty
When we got to the actual Gala, 3 floors, several bands, over 8,000 people... Allan danced with me, he's a great dancer! OMG! I feel so alive! He takes my breath away! I ran away from him after this photo!

Several bands, several different styles, something for everyone...

there was also a live auction area that included a car! and many other items...

Chris and I enjoyed dancingwe traveled around to different areas of the gala

Many photo ops, me and my posse

Jerry and I met at a charity event in Ft Worth, he is also fun to dance with...

I was invited to closed (invite only) after parties and brought Jerry with to one (that he really wanted to get into, but couldn't get an invite). As the night progressed many gentleman put straps on my wrist and gave me passes for parties but I couldn't get to all of them...

Laurie and I had a great time!

I was prompted to be in many photos...

This is Bowie, just friends, I saw him the night before at the Sherlocks event, he's fun...

Here's me in front of the 8,000 plus toys the charity collected that night!

Pinch me! Is this really my life! how did I become so popular and almost a celebrity? I danced for over 6 hours and actually lost weight last night, I kept drinking water to stay hydrated... I was invited to so many parties but just couldn't get to all of them! I got home before the sun came up, by 5am. I accredit my stanima to aerobics, healthy eating, drinking water etc but to be honest, there were thousands of people still partying when I left!

All for a good cause!
