welcome to my 29th year…..

05/11/2008

Img_8157

so, i’m 29.

just had to type it.. hahaha..
nothing could ever top my birthday last year that my bff planned.. and that SOOO many people made *super* special….
but this year, i just wanted to get a bunch of friends together to laugh, be silly, enjoy beverages, and hang on the island…

Img_8165

it was a crazy silly time thats for sure ๐Ÿ˜‰ lots of laughs.. lots of beverages.. and very domestic like snacks made by ME ๐Ÿ˜‰ go figure.

everyone was in doodling, signing writing on my bathroom wall, which i *love* how its turning out… and see something different everytime i *cough* sit down ๐Ÿ˜‰

i totally think im going to create a cute (of course) necklace notebook… so when your at a snazzy party like mine and something funny is said… you can jot it down.. instead of saying " we have to remember that"

i adore the gorgeous flowers i got…. from a random bartender ๐Ÿ˜‰

as i was getting things ready on friday, and making cupcakes… i was remembering how my gram would have me cook/bake with her… i remembered a few of the suggestions she taught me.. like my 2nd batch of cupcakes i didnt have enough batter to fill all the cups, so i added water into the empties… that was totally her teaching…. little things like that come back to me about her, makes me miss her like crazy

dear erin, please don’t be afraid of me… yes i have spooned you and yes i enjoyed a jello shot out of your cleavage…. but dont all friends share that!?

i love that even though melyssa with a y is in washington state… she was able to share some of my island party with me.. and meet everyone there, gotta love webcams ๐Ÿ˜‰ i think i should charge her for the entertainment i gave….

i love that robert-a made me a birthday princess with a crown and everything

i have a feeling next gift giving season i may get a silverware set or 2 LOL… sorry girls, i wasnt planning on a "shurk" icecream cake ๐Ÿ™‚

i’m glad i had nicky around to step in and take over the bartending job.. so what if she was confusing the OJ and Limeade ๐Ÿ˜‰ noone noticed hehehehe

love how jello shots travel well… in tiny purses ๐Ÿ˜‰

this girl makes me cry every year with her birthday post to me…..

i got soo many birthday cards from other a muse addicts… thank you girls sooo much!!

i think its hilarious that as soon as i found the random guy i was dancing with was a yankees fan.. i gave him a lot of sh*t and walked away ๐Ÿ™‚

lots of other funny things to remember, but some things that happen on the island.. have to stay on the island ๐Ÿ˜‰

looking forward to the last year in my twenties… looking forward to a crazy fun summer!!

    Happy Birthday, Jenn! Enjoy 29 – what an awesome year! The party looks like a blast! I was looking at the pictures and thinking that I can’t remember the last time my friends and I had a party with alcohol involved – these days it’s all kiddos and who’s renting the bounce house this time. Sad … really sad! Enjoy your time now … I’ll live vicariously through you!

    WOW…looks like you had one heck of a good island party. What a nice hostess. I’m impressed with your layout. You did good Jenn. Like I said, to be 29 again. Thanks for sharing your fun photos with your fans. Cheers! Enjoy your last year in your twenties. I hope to met you someday soon.

    Happy Birthday! Your irl ended up in my records (yep, I actually look @ those things… wondering who googled what to get to me!!!). Anyway, I have been 29 for almost 11 years. And one of my BFF lives in Manchester. Was just up visiting. We vacationed @ the Cape.
