Surprise!!

Best friend a girl could ask for.

Even though I attempted to escape any big birthday celebrations this year, my besties just couldn't resist throwing me a party - and a surprise at that! They somehow managed to pull off a very large, festive and absolutely fantastic surprise birthday bash last weekend at Crystal's house in Redmond.

All of my very best friends and family members were there, and I couldn't have been more shocked. There was fabulous drinks and delicious food and amazing gifts and I had such an amazing night.

I feel so spoiled and loved that all these people took the time to wish me happy birthday!

 

Even some of my aunts made it to the party!

Russ & Patty drove all the way up from Vancouver for the party!

I honestly could not have wished for a better 30th birthday. I don't believe there are many people in the world who are luckier than me. Thank you so much to everyone who came to my surprise party. I love you all so much and I'm so thankful that you are in my life. Here's to another 30 years!
