Say Goodbye to the Roaring Twenties, Gid!

We threw my sweet Gideon a party for his thirtieth.

Thirty years is kind of a big deal, so we made sure to go all out.
(Translation: I bought fancy cheese and Harry and David meatballs and cheesecake...)

 

I can't even tell you how much fun it was. We chose to do a 20s theme ("Say Goodbye to the Roaring Twenties," get it?) I've had a few friends do this style of party and it looked too fun for us to pass up.

We had dear friends of ours come to celebrate with us,
and had the most lovely evening together.

We even managed to make a little photobooth spot.

Dressing up is the such fun, don't you think?

When it was time for (cheese) cake, I gave all of our guests sparklers to match Gid's birthday candles.

I like to think it made it more fun for everyone.

From then until after 9 pm, we just enjoyed hanging out
and taking pictures in front of the gold foil backdrop.

(I like how it looks like I've just said something really shocking in this picture...)

It was the most fun we've had in a long time.

Such huge thanks go to my sweet friend Anne, who photographed for me during the party. I'm never taking pictures at a party that I throw again, it was soooo nice having her there (both as company and as a photographer). I can't believe how talented my friends are.

It was a night we'll never forget.

Happy 30th, my sweetheart of all sweethearts. I love you so much it hurts.

I can't wait to throw another party!
