day 67

For my annivesary present this year I told Joe I wanted to attend the Animal Acres Gala (yes along with the Haiwii trip) he agreed that he would go with me. I went this weekend with my parents and we had fun. Of course I didn't tell my dad everything about what we were going to. On the drive down to the gala my dad read the menu on the confirmation sheet and it stated "VEGAN" dinner. My dad thought he was going to this fancy country club in the Pacific Palisades for a steak dinner. After explaining to him that this place rescues farm animals and helps with the crultiy of farm animals that eating a steak at the gala would kind of be a problem.

It was a fun night even if alot of the celebrities did not show because of the last minute date change - that really didn't bother me I more upset it wasn't on the farm with the animals. (they are still evecuated because of the fires)

I didn't win any of my silent auction items but my dad got a autograph of Kenny Rogers and a t-shirt. I was bidding on a trip to NYC with vip seats at Regis & Kelly and VIP tickets to see the taping of The Big Bang Theroy which I already had vip seat to Regis & Kelly and Thursday saw the case of the Big Bang Theroy on the warner brother tour - but it was for the animals benefit more than another trip to NYC.

Here are some photos from the night.
