My BIG 30!

I had a blast celebrating the last week of my twenties for my big 30 on the 17th. We started celebrating with a small get together the weekend before my birthday but had the big party planned the weekend after. For the second year in a row, Kerri and I merged our parties since we are only a few days apart.

We celebrated at a really cool place in Cherry Creek North called Canvas and Cocktails, where you get a painting class and get to drink at the same time, DIVINE!!




After painting we went to Cucina Colore, a great Italian place near Canvas and Cocktails. Having 15 ladies at one table is always a good time!





Then as if I had not celebrated enough, it was time to celebrate with my mom, whose birthday is a week a part from mine. My mother and I decided to celebrate with a lovely dinner at The Flagstaff House in Boulder. Both Pat and my cousin Kerry were able to join us, which made the night really fun. What a great birthday week!

What a WICKED fun Wednesday!!



For my birthday this year all I wanted was to go to Wicked when it was in Denver. Unfortunately it sold out almost immediately and ticket prices went through the roof. Well last night we gave it a shot and went down to the theater 2.5 hours before the show to participate in the raffle that they do each show for sold out performances. The odds are always pretty low because so many people show up to try and get the 20 tickets they raffle off for dirt cheap prices. Well...... last night we WON, wooo hooooo!!!! I was so excited. I actually got what I wanted for my birthday :). I absolutely loved it too.
