The big night.

Prairie Love premiered at the Friar's Comedy Club Festival on Saturday night, but the excitement began in the morning.

We stayed at Holly's (I may have mentioned that before) - she was the lead actress in the film.

Anyways, she was prepared.

She had champagne and orange juice on hand and suggested mimosas almost the instant we woke up.

And she made muffins for us...great way to start the day :)

After breakfast, we were off to find Dusty an outfit for the premiere.

It makes perfect sense to wait until the last minute, right?

We hit up lots of thrift stores and finally found what we thought would be the perfect jacket for the night.

We went back to Holly's to get ready and then we went to The Campbell Apartment in Grand Central Station to have a drink before the screening.

After some encouragement from the group, I decided to rock my natural, curly, frizzy, wavy hair.

Good decision?  still not sure...

The film played at the Lighthouse International Theater.

The screening went great.

The audience laughed when they were supposed to, there were questions during the q & a session after the film, and people were coming up to Dusty afterwards with words of praise - I love hearing the kind things people have to say to him.

I kind of feel like I have to toot Dusty's horn sometimes because he never does it himself, which is something I really admire about him :)

The above picture is Dusty with Eric who was the head programmer of the festival.

One of Dusty's friends from high school even made it to the screening :)

After the screening, we went to the after-party at the Friar's Club.

We had a great evening.

 I am so proud of Dusty.
