I turned the BIG 30 on March 25, 2010!!! It all started with a few gifts from Guiliana and my in-laws. Guiliana (along with Grandma's help) made me a beautiful card and gave me a charm for my necklace that I have been wanting, a little girl charm with her birthstone. I also got some perfume, CELINE DION's Sensational. My work gals treated me with lots of little goodies, from Starbucks to Sunflowers, it was such a nice day. That evening we had my favorite for dinner, Sushi from Eastwind and another beautiful dozen roses.
But the best surprise of the whole day was the knock on my door at about 8pm that evening... MY DAD!!! He along with Greg and my in-laws had been planning on him flying in and surprising me for my birthday!!! It was an amazing surprise and I was so happy to have him here to celebrate my big day!
The next day we were all off of work for the day (for about 2 months, Greg had insisted that I take the day after my birthday off for a family day and now I understood what he was really doing!) We headed out to breakfast at Chompies and then to the play area at the mall so my dad could watch Guiliana play. The rest of the day and most of Saturday we all just relaxed, hung out, and enjoyed some much needed quality family time.
Saturday, March 27th was my big party that my friends threw me. Greg, Michally, Eric, and my in-laws had been planning this party for quite sometime. I knew that they were doing this for me but all the details were kept a secret which kept an element of surprise. I did mention that I would like a Wine and Cheese party as a suggestion and they really out did themselves. I can't thank everyone enough for all of the hard work and love that went into this party and to all of the very special people in my life who came to celebrate with me. Eric and Michally were kind enough to open their home for this special occasion.
Oh... and on another note... this was Guiliana's very first sleepover at Grandma and Grandpa's house and she did great! (I know what you are thinking... she is almost 2 and she hasn't had a sleepover yet?? Well, we work all week and the weekends we love to be with her. There hasn't been anything important enough for us to want to be away from her overnight. But, I am glad that we chose this night. I had a blast and didn't have to worry about my baby girl. She was very well taken care of)
Caution!!!!!
It has been about 3 years since I partied like this and Mama got a little crazy!! Some of the pictures are embarrassing because I am so trashed BUT, super funny at the same time!!
