Best. Party. Ever.

I have been planning a way to celebrate my birthday for a year.  After several different ideas that had to change because of work, schedules and other things, I finally decided to have a birthday party.  For the last month, I have been moving forward and planning.  Then, a week ago, another setback happened, and I was going to cancel my party.

The party was supposed to happen at my friends house in San Diego, however, last Sunday she found out that she had to attend a funeral and was going to be out of town for my birthday.  Very sad.  She said that I could throw the party at her house anyway, but she has cats.  Do you remember what happened last time we were responsible for someone's pet?  I was not up for losing another cat.

The only answer in my mind:  cancel the party.

Then Ben told me that we should have the party here, at our house.  The only bummer?  My friends in San Diego would not be able to come, so I was really disappointed.


Even though there were a lot of complications, it was totally worth it, because it was the best party I have ever had.

There was a photo booth, amazing desserts, fireworks, and excellent company.  Really, an amazing party.

If this party is any reflection of how my 30's are going to go- I am excited to see what happens.
