Brunssum Charity Night

Last weekend, Jon and I had yet another opportunity to dress up in the month of March at the Brunssum Charity Night. Brunssum is the nearby NATO base in the Netherlands, and their spouses club organizes a charity night with a different theme each year. Last year it was a 60s theme, and this year it was "A Night at the Movies." This theme leaves your costume quite open for interpretation, but most people came as characters from movies. Some of the more creative costume ideas included V for Vendetta, Eliza Doolittle, Natalie Portman from the Black Swan (a couple of those), the Joker, and many more. There were even a few who chose to dress up from Zorro - including us!

Antonio Jonderas and Cathleen Zeta-Clough

People weren't sure if his Zorro was to represent Antonio Banderas or George Hamilton, but he did a great job getting into character, and I was his sultry senorita, (aka. Cathleen Zeta-Clough) for the night. We had a blast dancing, tasting all the different nation's food booths and hangin' with our friends.

The Ladies of the Night

With all the heavy dancing, by the end of the night, the wig came off. Another thing that came off, as of today, is Jon's mustache. He's enjoyed growing his 'stache during Mustache March, and being referred to by people as Clark Gable and Errol Flynn, but April 1 couldn't come soon enough for me. His face is simply too handsome to be hiding behind a 'stache and I will certainly cherish the next 11 months before March comes round again.
