Party party

When I turned 30 my friend Stina and I had a joint birthday party with lots of people. It was a great night. Leading up to my 40th I was going through lots of ideas of what to do. I love having big parties, just like in the past, but the thought of organising something big and not really having anyone taking care of the Children, made it all so much harder. Until I came up with the great idea to have a Girls party! Adam and the kids stayed over at Mickes house for the night so the party was held at our house.

 

I set up a dinner table in the living room (have never tried that before) and it worked really well and fit all of us 16 Girls.

 

The party would not have been the same without Mum and auntie Maggie who cooked all the food and took care of the kitchen during the dinner including cleaning up after dinner. They did a great job and I am so glad that I didn't have to worry about the food during the night.

Zara also came early to help and while I was getting myself ready she vaccumed the floors, set up the Music and helped with the last bit of preparations before everyone turned up.

Mum and Maggie had spend the morning, before coming to us, making all these nice pre food!

 

I don't wear dresses very often but this one I bought just for this occasion and I really like it. The pink shoes were only worn before the party started, don't worry!

Pre food and drinks upstairs before dinner.

Dinner with many Amazing friends!

 

I got such great presents and will spread it all out over the year to make my birhtday last as long as possible :-) To mention a few presents I got spa treatments, dinner out with friends, massage/hot stone treatments, a food bag from Hemmagastronomi and a voucher from the same Place, Money to go towards a trip, lamb meat etc.

I am so happy with the night and feel blessed to be sourrounded by great friends. The last people to leave left around 2:30 after lots of Girls talk and eating and drinking.
