Fabulous at 50

As you all know, last week was my Mom and Dads birthdays and Mom turned the BIG 5-0! What you didnt know is we were planning a SURPRISE party for her in Cordele Friday night. My mom is too cute and fun to have the traditional "OVER THE HILL" party so we had a "FABULOUS AT 50" bash. Dad picked her up earlier in the afternoon in a limo and took her to get her hair & nails done and then they went to have some pictures made of them at the lake. When they pulled back up to the house this is what they saw....



Russ' new girl!

SURPRISE!!!! She sure knew how to strut on the red carpet!


Mom was a little teary-eyed when they opened the limo door. I think she was really happy to see her family & closest friends there to help her celebrate In Style!


Speaking of In Style...We brought out this FABULOUS magazine cover of mom.

We also invited Elvis to provide some entertainment...

This was the Photo Booth we set up for everyone to take Fabulous Pics.







We ended the night rocking out to Guitar Hero for a couple of hours.



I guess I should explain the character next to me is my brother, Russ, dressed in a wig to get more Rocker Power!

and playing the BEST game ever called Just Dance, you have to hold a remote and mimic the person on TV. HILARIOUS!



It was a success! I am so glad we got to have a party for mom since dad had to share his with my wedding!

Houses of the Hamptons

Oh, there are so many beautiful homes in the Hamptons. BUT, MOST of the truly amazing ones are covered by this...


On our walk on the beach we saw these...




On our drive we saw these....



And on our bike ride we saw these...



"Welcome Home"

It was alot harder to take pictures of P.Diddy, SJP, Gwyneth, and Kelly's houses than I thought. Maybe next time.

PART FOUR: THE FINALE
Saturday morning Wesley & I went to a sidewalk art sale in East Hampton, I was looking for "paper" for our Anniversary gift. A lot of pretty things but most were about $2,000...a little more than I wanted to spend. Then we walked down to a Carnival that was going on. It was awesome!
I got to do Spin Art & Welsey got a Sno-Cone.


There were animals, slides, food, and games. We also got in the photo booth and took some silly pics.




We worked up an appetite so for lunch we went back to the bar we went to on Friday night, CittaNuova, and had Pizza.

And of course had to stop at Dylans Candy Bar for something sweet!



Headed back to the car we passed the Trina Turk store and I just had to go in. I found this print in a pair of shorts and skirt and loved them both so much that I couldnt make a decision on which I wanted soooo I left with nothing. SAD! I think everyday Im going to call and order it to be shipped to me. BUT I did get a pic of the oh-so-cute fitting room. I just love the patterns on her clothes and her furniture!


That afternoon we rented bikes to go look at more houses


and just happened to run across this cute little girl selling lemonade thank goodness!

While we were getting ready for our Anniversary Dinner, we popped the champagne and Wesley gave me a card.


In it was a traditional Love Letter (paper) with so many gushy lines I know you dont want to hear. ; )

And also Tickets to see John Mayer in September. YAY! He is such a great husband, I love him!!!


We went to dinner at Nick & Toni's. We had been looking at their menu for 3 days and finally bit the bullet and are so gald we did. We had the Fried Zucchini to start and then Wesley had an awesome steak and my scallops tasted like butta!


Check out that herve leger!!! Whew!
The bartender became our friend and hooked me up with this awesome strawberry cucumber mojito and then surprised us after dinner with this little dessert shot.


Wesley tried to be grown and order an after dinner coffee, I talked him into getting the one with the Baileys and Kahlua and it was so strong neither of us could take it down. We will stick to what we do best from now on!

This was the best meal yet! Im so glad we chose Nick & Toni's for our First Year Anniversary Dinner. Sunday we flew home to eat some of our top layer cake and then crashed! We had so much fun and will always remember our trip!

BY THE WAY.... I feel like 10 years from now this is what my anniversary post will look like...
