An 80's Themed Birthday Party

Earlier this month I went to an entirely too fun 80's themed birthday party for my friend Kari. When I was getting ready, Travis came up to say goodbye as he and the boys were leaving and he stopped dead with a "whoa" when he saw me. "Well, I was coming to give you a kiss goodbye, but..."

"Well, now's the time, I was just about to put this on, so hurry up while the gettin's good! Unless you want hot pink lipstick too?" At least he didn't tell me I should wear a trench coat to get in the car when my ride got there like one of my friends' hubby's wanted his wife to!

And then when I came downstairs Avery was running toward me and seeing me brought him up short. Ususally, Avery is Mister Charm with his compliments. This time, I could see in his face he was not sure if this was a look he should compliment. I assured him it was a costume and his relief was obvious. SO funny.

So Travis took my picture with my camera phone just before leaving. This picture does NOT do justice to the extreme pink lips or masses of blue eyeshadow!

Look, me too, except I didn't turn the flash on for the picture taker and it was still set for having the flash fire.

Way too much fun, amazing outfits, awesome food, outstanding decorations in an awe-inspiring lodge with the coolest ladies around equals a great night! Happy Birthday Kari!

You're right. That camera phone pic doesn't do justice to your make up. You looked totally tubular!!

How fun! You all look bad to the bone. Was there any slam dancing at this party?
