MGN Gala - May 3, 2008

We had the MGN Gala invitation sitting on Noli's night table for the longest time. He had it there to remind me every night about it. I had been dreading the RSVP date. I wasn't sure how I was going to feel about leaving the baby for the first time. But then that date came and I decided to go with the filet mignon over the salmon. I had to start somewhere, right? Having a baby should not mean having to say "no" to grown up activities. After all, Grandpa and Grandma Nalda offered to take care of Alex. Who else would do a better job of making sure our baby would be OK? The good thing about this is that we booked a room at the hotel where the gala was being held and we were set up for the night as Grandma and Grandpa babysat in our room.





We had a great time. We even had a chance to pose with Coach Friedgen.
