The ParTay
First and foremost, I should note, I am NOT 30…yet. I still have 15 more days. But leave it to Monica to rub it in for me:
It really was a wonderful party. TONS of food, fun, people…love having everyone here! I got some great gifts (that’s another post…I’ve already gotten lots of giggles over one of them). One of the coolest things, though, is that I FINALLY got a picture of Erin, Traci, and I together - the Barnes and Noble gang. Love these girls! (please note, Erin and Traci were totally squatting down so that I wouldn’t look so darned short next to them. Now that is friendship).
Of course, Nic, Traci’s husband, who was taking the pictures, thought we’d look more flattering if he got up on the bridge and took pictures of us from above. (um, trying to tell us something, Nic?)
So, anywho, here are some more pics from the party…
My mama. Another pic of her that I totally love (please note the name tags, also from Monica!):
The kiddie pool. Every adult party should have one of these!
My sweet girl:
My bro-in-law, Eddie, cuddling w/ his favorite part of my family, Zuzu:
A pic of Gabe during the only 10 minute interval that he was detached from the pool:
Wayne, Mo’s hubby, enjoying the hammock:
My girl, Mo (I am sooooo gonna get you back for those name tags and the Oil of Old Age! Your time is coming, my friend!)
And, last but not least, my candle-blowing-out-buddy and me. LOVE this picture.
Here’s to 15 more days of my 20s!!!!!
Happy Birthday, 30 aint bad

Found your blog through 2Peas. I’ll be back…and Happy birthday in a couple more weeks. Thirty is really young compared to Brad Pitt being 40! Stop by my Nitty.Gritty. blog sometime. Oh…and wish me luck- I scrapped my first 20 layouts and then submitted them to CK’s Scrapbooker of the Year contest. Crazy me, I know, but still I had a blast doing my pages. Ciao for now!

I wouldn’t say Zuzu is my favorite member of your family, but she certainly is in the Top 5!!
Love Ya,
