18th Birthday Party!

I have officially been eighteen for one week. How awesome is that!?! Well, my party was today and it was great! My dad and two youngest brothers came all the way from Risingsun to be at my party. I was so excited to see them! I also had my great uncle there as well as many other family members whom I love to death. I also had the privilege of having friends there too!

My step-dad, Rich, was able to get his friend, Bob, to DJ for the party. I really enjoyed having the music. It was a relief to not have to worry about "babysitting" Cd's and boom boxes. Bob did an awesome job! Having him there, playing music, really brought the party together!

We played all sorts of games from trivia, to riddles, to mind teasers, we played it all. The snow ball dance was probably the best one. Grams and Gramps started the dance and eventually we had most everyone on the dance floor. We had to drag Harley out there, but we got him out there. Lol. Everyone enjoyed having some fun.

Grams had bought an ice cream cake, which I had no knowledge of it, and I thoroughly enjoyed the surprise! It was decorated with a blue Ford Mustang with sprinkles. It was a lovely cake, just like the ones before. Thank you, Grams! She also did a fabulous job helping with the food and set-up. In fact everyone who helped did a fabulous job! I enjoyed myself and the party. It was great! If fact you only turn eighteen once, right? So why not have some fun!

Well, my dear, Grams would not have done all that preparation for just anyone! It was hard work and I have to admit I am still tired (maybe it was all that driving yesterday?). I, too, was pleased at the turnout of people who came to honor your big day. Make it a great year as well, and you'll be so fine...
