This post is for the challenge this week with Scrap Tiffany.
Yesterday I posted the previous week..Sorry to be so confusing.
Week 6 was on "Celebrations".
It could be anything, birthday, anniversary, wedding, whatever.
So I decided to do a layout on my Shine's 14th birthday party.
We had soooo much fun. Yes, we!! I felt like a kid again.
Here's the layout, then I will post the fun we had...

Close up of the top half...
Yes, that is a lot of pics on that page but that was also a lot of girls,
a lot of hours, a little trouble(we won't talk about that on here though, just in case the girls moms are visiting here, Hi Mom!!!)
and a whole lot of fun.
We started the night with the girls meeting at our house for pizza(you must have food for an all-nighter), then we left and made the girls go on a scavenger hunt, they had to go to 6 different locations with their adult drivers(I'm not stupid, always more than one, just in case the girls tie the other one up), they had to fight for a seat in one of the cars after running out of the house and throwing their overnight bag in the back, that my friend was crazy.
Once in the car they received their first clue, the driver could not drive off without them figuring out where they were to go(the driver knew the locations, no wild goose chases that night, well not yet anyway). They only had a picture to go on, no words(just in case someone couldn't read, jk!), the first one was a pic of a star and a buck(deer)(if you know me, you know where that is). They had to get their 2 adult drivers their
favorite drink(hey, I'm not stupid, I knew we had a a long night ahead).
That took a few minutes, then they caught on. As the driver drove, the other one had to tell them what their mission was inside the location, then once they got there, the extra driver had to get out with them to take pictures of everything(uh! did you forget one of my fav things is pictures), then we made 5 other stops like that.
Other stops and tasks were...
The last stop was Coldstone where we all had ice cream.
Shine got a present that was the zebra hat and tip money for the servers, once she tipped them, they sang Happy Birthday to her and gave her another present.
Inside that present was a hotel brochure, telling them where we were headed next.
So we went to a hotel, where again she got a present from the front desk clerk.
Inside that was her room number and key.
So when we got upstairs the room was completely decorated in zebra/lime green. Balls on the ceiling, balloons on the floor, snacks, candy, girly mags.
She was so surprised...but the big surprise was still to come.
They went swimming, then about 11:00 that night, there was a knock at the door.
Shine opened it and there stood her cousin, Ashley, that she hadn't seen in 6 months because she moved to Nashville from California.
Ashley helped me plan the entire party from 2000 miles away,
then showed up for the party. Love ya, Ash!!
It was so much fun!!!
So then the tears came and the real fun started.
After that, we had a very adventurous night all the way into the morning..
about 5 am in the morning.
This birthday party post will stop here,
due to the nature of the rest of the evening. Hhmm? What happened next you ask?
Well, if you are interested, when I see you in person you can ask and I will tell.
NOTE: To the Mom's of Shine's friends, that entrusted your girls to me....
I promise, there was nothing illegal and no bare skin.
Just lots of fun and more surprises.
Thanks to the drivers, Bethany, Holly, and Bernadette(and me).
Couldn't have done this without you.
Ash, thanks for all your help. You're awesome!!
It was one fun party that all the girls still talk about.
I enjoyed the night with my girl.
Needless to say that page does not have nearly enough pics to tell the story of the
night that lasted all night.
I'm working on a book of the evening to include everything.
So that is my take on the "Celebrations" for this week.
Go to ScrapTiffany to check out the rest of the design team's take on the challenge.
There is some super cute stuff on there.
Sorry for the long post, but I couldn't just leave that layout with just the pics.
Glad you stopped by!!!
Til next Time with T!

Other stops and tasks were...
- doing a catwalk in high heels at Payless Shoes,
- putting a pair of PINK thong underwear on their head insideVictoria's Secret long enough to get a pic,
- Red Robin and tie a balloon to their wrist and take a pic with the hostess,
- Borders/take a pic of their group reading the children's book,"Where the Wild Things Are"
