Birthday Dinner with Friends

When I turned 30 I was 8 months pregnant and in pain with Fred the Fibroid. I didn't get to whoop it up and have a big 30th birthday bash. I swore I was going to have a big celebration when I turned 35 to makeup for my lack of excitement at turning 30. I had many ideas of great parties, but as you get a bit older, sometimes dinner with a few friends is all you need. Sarah and Colby got a group of 15 friends and we had a delicious dinner at Park Avenue Restaurant in Stanton, CA. It sounds far but it's about 15 minutes from our house. We sat in the backroom the was adorably decorated for Christmas. It was a great evening and one I will remember. A few of us went down to 2nd street to Evo, Shannon's and Acapulco Inn afterwards. Just in case we weren't already feeling old enough...we decided to party with the 20nothing crowd! We ended up back at our house until 3 a.m.!!! Thank you to all who came, it was such a special birthday.
