ODE TO TARA, WHO TURNED 37 YEARS YOUNG ON TUESDAY...
i know personally, that she's quite glad to be over that 'awkward' stage...
well, maybe not...
that's mean isn't it?
tara's miss 11 and i cooked up a plan to make tara's birthday special. miss 11's organisational skills rival my own. honestly, she could be my child...
the girls made vanila cake and iced it. well, i think some of the icing made it onto the cake. we're quite grateful tara wasn't named stephanie....
and then it was onto lunch at a nearby garden cafe
everyone dressed in their tuesday best
10 candles. 3 in one row, 7 in the other. get it?
then to the bead shop where we had booked our very own mini birthday party
the girls made charm bracelets and tara and i made a surprisingly fiddly little number
finished products
we had such a fun day! we were out for around 6 hours and quite exhausted when we got home!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TARA - LOVE YA LOTS!!!

Oh how lovely! 37? She doesn't look a day past 29! What a beautiful tribute Sue.
How fun! I love the bead shop and agree with MG. 37? No way!
Birthdays are fun, 3,7,37 or 73.
The rocking years are yet to start, have a great time. :)

Looks like a whole lot of fun. Happy Birthday Tara.
Happy Birthday! It looks like the two of you have a lot of fun together.
Best Friends are the best things ever! It truly is a blessing to have them. I think in life, they are every bit as important as my husband (just don't see as often and play a different role)! And really, they are family!
Oh hey, I am going to have a contest soon, so check my blog in the next few days. It will not be as great as the ones you do, but something anyway!
That looks like SO MUCH FUN! YOu are awesome for throwing her such a fantastic birthday party-day!
Happy Birthday Tara!
What a fun day for allof yall!
That was such a lovely post. 37? She's just a child.
Like the bracelets very much. I'd love to do something like that. Glad you had a good time.
There are awards over at my place, along with a very silly post. You've been warned!
Oh what fun! I felt like I was along for the party!
Happy Belated Birthday Tara! Looks like a yummy cake!
I'll pass along what my sister told me about turning 37. A 3 and a 7 equals a perfect 10!
Cool beans! She's adorable.
And THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU to Scrappy Jr. for the delightful little package that arrived yesterday! We love the loot, and Sarah got to learn where New Zealand was!
Sounds like a fun afternoon!
Yes, it's mean. Especially if the person you blurred out in that first photo happens to be you.
But mean in a funnyway.
Happy Birthday Tara!! Good friends are hard to find and she is definately a keeper!!
What a wonderful day .. Brava to Miss 11 for pulling this off...
And a belated but happy birthday to Miss 37
