We hadn't really hosted many get-togethers at our house since the Super Bowl, and I wanted to have a good ol' shindig for Nick's birthday.
I invited a bunch of people from Facebook, and told people to bring whoever they would like. I wanted to get to meet new people, and even if they were perfect strangers, that would be okay! Well, maybe not okay--I at least wanted to know someone as a connection. :)
I made my first ever carrot cake for Nick:
Melissa and Alex came!
Shepherd kept watch over the grill. :)
Waldo, get your nose out of the cake!
We taught some of the native LAngelinos how to cornhole. :)
Shepherd was very...helpful...with the beanbags!
R and Nick vs. Slim and Allison: Most Epic Cornhole Game Ever!
When the sun went down, we amazed our friends with some typical Ohio party tricks: Fireball and Flame Breath. :)
Thanks to everyone who came! We had a great time!!


























You are a natural and in your element when you throw parties. I like how Alex is holding "Sophie" the giraffe.
