I've gotten a year older. Again. No big deal.
This year, I hosted a little get together the weekend before my actual birthday, which also happened to be the Day of the Dead/All Souls Day weekend. It inspired the theme for the party and people (thankfully) got into it!

Me with my crazy flower crown. You can see one of the 8 flower arrangements I had in the background. |

I made sure my outfit was filled with colors! You can also see the sugar skull decorations. |

Me with the boys, Noel and Geoff. |

The party was fun and it gave people a reason to dress-up for Halloween with out really needing to come up with a costume. I had a face painting station all set up in my bathroom, and people could arrive as they are and then get the make-up on after they arrived.
I also had a make-up removing station for the end of the party.
