Benjamin's 30th Birthday Party

Even though it was 2 weeks before Benjamin's actual 30th birthday I thought while we were in MS visiting family would be the perfect time to throw him a surprise get together! When I began looking for a place to have it nothing seemed feasible when the majority of the attendees would be kids! I mean what do you do? At a restaurant you can have absolutely no adult conversation because the kids are all over the place.

SO, the best option, Tad's Pizza! For the people not from Corinth, Tad's is kind of like a miniature Chucky Cheese. There are games and inflatables to entertain the kids while the adults are able to sit, relax, and carry on conversation.

Besides, Benjamin is still a kid at heart, right!?!

A special thanks to mom and dad for getting there early to set up the decor for me!

What about those cute letters?! I found the idea on Pinterest and used them as centerpieces for the tables. My dad painted them and I had all the attendees sign their names on them so that Benjamin could take them to work and use them decor for his bookshelves.

At this moment he is saying to me, "Why did you do this? This is soooooo embarrassing."

We had such a wonderful turnout. Friends and family all came together to celebrate his birthday. Even the out of town family drove over!!

My bestie since elementary school!!

Since Benjamin isn't a huge fan of birthday cake we decided to have a dessert spread instead. Check out all these goodies!

A special thanks to mom and Hannah for making them for me!
