I created lots of pomp and circumstance leading up to my thirtieth birthday. I suppose it would only be right to share with you the highlights of the fabulous week surrounding my entrance into a new and exciting decade. I’ll keep it in list form for all you non-readers and even include photos!
I kicked off the week of fun with a delightful sushi dinner with my darling friend Tina Marie. We have the best time bonding over sushi. I love that girl.
Friday night my bestie Jenny got into town and we went out to one of my favorite karaoke spots, the Free Spirit Lounge, to celebrate the last night of my 20s. We sang. We danced. We drank. The lovely @ZubidasWorld made me a birthday cake complete with a Twitter bird…and she even brought toys! So many great friends came out to celebrate…what a way to end the twenties!
Then Saturday was a DAY-OF-FUN with Jenny! We started with pedicures with my mom and sister, then had lunch at Pei Wei, fro yo at TCBY and did some Target shopping. Who doesn’t love Target?
The evening kicked off with a family dinner. Gotta love getting all the (soon to be) family together!
And then there was The Party. We went with an 80s theme, since I am a product of the 80s. And who doesn’t want a reason to crimp their hair and wear neon?
The last celebration came with a night out with the love of my life. Ben took me to the Skyline Club. What a romantic place! We overlooked Monument Circle, lit up in all it’s glory as we dined on probably the best food of my life. Poblano pepper stuffed with chorizo! Surf and turf! THE BEST CHOCOLATE SILK OF YOUR LIFE! But better than the food and the view? The company of the best man ever. Ben showered me with gifts and love and affection and I will never forget this birthday because of it.
Here’s to a great new decade. The first week has been amazing!
