i know, there's not a picture of the birthday girl here...but that's b/c everyone else was having so much fun at this party! a dear friend, judy crawford, threw a little bash in my honor...really just a good excuse for her to have one of her famous parties. it was fabulous, complete with guiness cupcake (picture next post up, somehow it didn't show up on this one! argh, must figure out nuances of posting), appetizers that were yummy (my favorite), & some wonderful fillet steaks & gorgonzola cheese fondue! pretty amazing times.

the pinnacle of the night wasn't singing happy birthday or eating the fondue or steak. nope. it was wes taking addy down the CHILDREN'S water slide. apparently there was some miscommunication as to how wes could attempt going down this water slide & her thought it was perfectly okay to first of all go down the water slide, then to also have addy in his arms. anyway, it ended as i expected: the slide collapsed, he & addy gently crashed to the ground, addy cried out of fear of dying & wes was laughing hysterically. i had little visions of addy & wes both suffocating from the material or even drowning?! judy got most of this on video; i'm not sure if she's going to blog it or not, but we'll attempt to get it. check her blog (it's listed under 'my blogging friends') to see! anyway, it may be worth 10,000 on AFV. to top it off, the fall tore the bottom of the slide where it was grounded...thankfully, judy was able to fix it already.

it was good times had by all. thanks for the party judy. i promise at the next one, i won't let my husband do anything stupid (for those not in the know, two years ago, judy hosted a bday party for wes & wes nearly broke his tailbone jumping off the top of their boys' new swingset...long story, but a very stupid idea!). happy birthday to me... :o)
