yikes! where has the last month gone? i have had a huge deadline for my teaching job and have devoted much of my time of late to that. now that the deadline is past, i am back to blogging. and can i just say that it is good to be back? 
.
ah, where to start? a few weeks ago i shot some photos of “stage 1″ of a friend’s sister’s 21st birthday party. let me say that these girls know how to throw a party! you’ll see in the photos why i am so blessed to call these girls friends of mine!
.
after appetizers, the girls had planned the “stephanie” game. everyone got a card with a prompt–ranging from where you first met stephanie, first impression of stephanie, favorite stephanie memory, stephanie-isms, etc. so much fun and such a creative way to show the birthday girl how loved she is.

the birthday girl herself laughing at the pic below…
.
these 2 paired up to do the “stephanie-isms”…hilarious!
.
a-z, all the things we love about stephanie.
.
group shot of the girls before they headed downtown. i loved these all in black and white, but had to do this one in color because how fun is the green wall??
.
while we’re in color, check out the invites and hand-painted martini party favors…it’s all in the details…
.
and this is where we parted…off to continue the party in atlanta!
