All Hallows Ball Tampa 2010

The 34th Annual All Hallows Ball was held again at the Tampa Convention Center.  It was my pleasure to bring Adele, my oldest daughter with me as my guest.  She went as Dorothy, what else?!!!!  And I was the Lollipop Guild Munchkin.

Here is Adele at 4 years old.

And here she is 24 years later!


We rode over to a pre-party with Pete and Joe.  It was a nice start to the evening, beautiful weather, overlooking the Channelside area, Florida Aquarium and the docks where the cruise ships leave from.  

We hung out there for a while and then walked over to the Convention Center.

It took us both a while to do our hair.

Joe and Pete as The Count and Cookie Monster.

Our gracious hosts Ron and Mark and Renegade running around with the ball in her mouth.  As Mia noted:  "Just Dementors sipping some wine.  Even they enjoy a good white :) "

This is a view of the pool area, taken from the balcony where we were on the 12th floor.  The following pictures were taken on the steps between the pools later just before we left to head over to the Convention Center.

 The entrance.  The venue came complete with searchlights outside!

Well, I can have accidents too . . . 

A familiar face!  Wayne meets us in Oz.
