Charity | Sips and Dips on Sixth | Hoyt Block

•  This is my third year (apparently I never blogged last year’s!) working the Sips & Dips on Sixth event for Rainbow Babies and Children Hospital and their 5th year doing this event.

•  For a list of the amazing sponsors for the event, make sure you visit the Sips & Dips sponsor page.

A Taste of Excellence always delivers when it comes to food.  YUM!

 

I still don’t quite know how to describe this… but it looks pretty!

 

I always love shooting the wine glasses at this event, so many!

 

A new addition to this year’s offerings was beer!  I was ELATED to find my favorite beer here, Framboise Lambic.  Oh my goodness this is divine.  If you like champagne and raspberries give this a whirl. Then come back here and thank me when you love it and can’t get enough.  Or hate on me because this isn’t cheap but oh-so-good.

 

There were SO many raffle items that were donated!

 

I also take this shot every year and it never gets old.

 

These wine tags cracked me up.  By the end of the night they were all over people’s outfits.

 

Blue Point Grille provided oysters which are always a huge hit.

 

Not sure what this wine is about but the guy holding it said I *needed* a picture of it and I was happy to oblige.

 

Ahhh my love, Mumm Champagne.  Mmmm.

 

Always fun to get a few posed portraits.

 

This is what is going on for most of the evening… along with a lot of eating!  I don’t take pictures of people chewing (ew!) but wine being poured is always a fun picture!

 

 

Why lookie here, it’s Mr & Mrs Cute!  Gee… they look familiar…

 

Joe Jurevicius and his wife were named honorary board members.

 

The Baumgart Family 🙂

 

The ‘zilla Family.

I swear I didn’t follow Heidi around all night taking pictures of her, she’s just too darn photographic!

 

The board members of the event!

 

Hope to see you guys next year 🙂
