Happy Happy Birthday To Me!

Posted on August 29, 2011 by The Student

Insert cutesy music from Sprout birthday segments here, because now that is how I hear the birthday song in my head.

Yes I know, I spend too much time with a toddler!

My birthday weekend started with a photo shoot with my besties and the lovely ladies at Vixen Pinup Photography. Here are the unedited photos that they allowed me to take on home. Hair and Photos are by Nikki Moreno, Make-up by Candypants Cunningham

After all that fun we went to dinner at my favorite sushi restaurant Sushi Haru. Then home for a Vaudeville Party that ended up being one of the best we have thrown. And ask our friends, we can have some wild parties!

The Costumes:

Apparently I wasn’t forward thinking enough to get a good pic of mine with the camera…but I make an appearance in the Photobooth pics later on!

The Ladies:

Zombies!:

And a random pic of my hottie husband and my bestie:

Then we had a photobooth app set up to take fun photos!

Here are the ladies:

The Couples:

The Zombies complete with a Group Thriller Scene:

No, I am not sure how Zombies took over my Vaudeville party but they did! Maybe next year we will just go with a Zombie theme!

So far 30 is great and that was the Best.Birthday.Party.EVER!

Come Monday morning I will have moved over to begin the next decade of my life!

I plan on spending the weekend celebrating this event with much wine and many friends. And knowing my hubby and my friends….many, many shots.

There will be a sushi dinner, then back at our house we will have a poker table, much music, a photo booth/video booth, snacks, drinks and craziness!

So I am signing off for the weekend, but I promise to bring stories back with me Monday morning. Especially since all the cool people up at my par-tay will be Vaudeville actors and actresses for a night!

Kind of like the Yard Dogs Road Show attire below.

Can you wait to see the pictures? I can’t!

Wordish Wednesday!

Better late than never. Here are some good shots from my youngest daughter’s 5th birthday party where I made made the centerpieces, collected teapots and teacups and created a Kiss the Frog Prince game. More later (read: after the wedding in 24 days! oh and the week long honeymoon lol) on how I did things!

I feel so disconnected! It’s been awhile loveys and it might be another month or so of sporadic posts. : ( It’s wedding crunch time so I haven’t been online much at all and I know I have neglected you.

I did take some time to have some fun for my friend Larynn’s 30th birthday.

Here’s some pin-up love (it was a pin-up birthday party photo shoot with several of us, but since the blog is public I will only share my photos)

Between the sick kids and holidays and Girl Scout, I still had to get together a small bash for my baby since he turned 1 YEAR OLD last Sunday!!! So here are the highlights (and may I say, boys really are lots of fun!)
