As I mentioned, at the end of the 3 year old fiesta party we had one hour to transition the scene to the 40 year old fiesta party. Since the day Avery was born, Todd’s birthday has played second fiddle to Avery’s. This year I wanted to do justice to the milestone birthday. (It’s a bit unfortunate that all this coincided with me being pregnant, but somehow my energy maintained.)
Margarita cupcakes complete with lime cookie slices and a sugar rim fit the occasion.
The chili pepper cookies were all sweet, but hinted at the spice of the night.
The sangria called to me all night, but I certainly refrained.
The salsa bar sported everything from spicy to fruity.
My mom kept the special recipe margaritas flowing through the night. By the way, tissue paper flowers are about the easiest and cheapest party decoration around.
Just gotta love my 40 year young macho man!
More festive photos to come!!
