big 4-0!!!!

happy birthday party to my hubby charming!

tonight was his fabulous night to party like he is 4-0!  well, almost!  his birthday is on monday but we were ready to get festive!  i was so excited to have this day finally come into fruition!  after months of planning + creating, it was a complete welcome to have it all come together this very night!

it was a very relaxing day to start.  hc dropped me off at st. clement for my meeting {as a team captain for our upcoming service day!}, after a short informative meeting on our upcoming duties, hc met up with me, again, and we walked to a favorite after mass brunch restaurant, frances!

we went home and relaxed {time well spent before we parrrrtayyyyyyed!}.  i actually got ready for the night and hubby charming and i went on a little errand run!  balloons, cake, decorate, oh my!  we picked up a few goodies {hubby charming was not allowed to peep at the cake!} and he dropped me off at the party destination to get ready whilst he went home to get all gussied up himself!

there i was, cake in hand, balloons in hand, and ready to decorate.  i’m sure the patrons inside the bar were eyeing me all funny…who’s this girl who came in with this party package in hand?!  hehehe.

away i went, commencing all the details to add to the festive mood for the night.  i was super excited and on track.  then, in came our first guests of the night and away we goooo!
