I did remember the balloons but then they had an unfortunate accident.
So did the tissue paper flowers.
And the string of fairy lights.
It was about the time that I was wondering where people would sit when I realized that we did not own enough plates or glasses to accommodate everyone.
So it turns out, I'm not going to get to be one of these crafty girls who posts uber cute photos of perfectly thrown parties on her blog.
Which is kind of a bummer because in my head it looked really fantastic and I was going to post all these photos of my cutely decorated house and then millions of people were going to read my blog to see my amazing party decor, one of them being an editor for a big publishing company who would be all "OMGlet'sofferthisgirlabookdealasap" and then I'd tour the country with my book and then
I know. So far-fetched.
