Celebrating 50!

Missy & Vanessa
My friend Vanessa and I decided to celebrate our birthdays together this year. FIFTY requires lots and lots of celebrating. Since her birthday is in November and mine is Christmas Eve we picked November to celebrate so everyone could be there! This was tough for some of our German friends, in Germany you NEVER wish someone an early Happy Birthday.  Just never.

Rachel's friend Katie joined us for the party since my Big Three couldn't be there.


Before everyone got there we tried out the photo props!
Missy and her superman!
We told all of our guests to wear black and white and then we showed up in purple! We decided to really make ourselves the center of attention!

The party was on the Ammersee at the wonderful restaurant Fischer. They did an unbelievable job providing our guests an awesome meal and keeping everyone's glasses filled! As a bonus, they have a "winter hut" with a DJ so we were able to dance the night away.  And we did - we didn't get home until 3am!!









Vanessa's son Alain and Rachel did the birthday toast. They did an unbelievable job. It is amazing to me how mature and poised they are at the age of 17.



Of course there were many toasts AND cake and singing! It was a fantastic night!



 A little worse for the wear at the end of the night but totally worth it - we had so  much fun!! And our friend Wendy gets the award for lasting all night with us!
