Carrie’s 30th!

We had an amazing time this weekend with family and friends for Carrie’s 30th!!

Lots of people came down from Oklahoma including Carrie’s family, Barry and Kim, and Dr. Laura (what were you doing in Oklahoma Laura? Hmmmmmmm???)

Anyway, without further ado, here are some of the fantastic pictures that Kim took!

Brad gives Carrie her birthday presentBrad helping Carrie with her necklace

Me giving Carrie her birthday gift just before the party — a little black onyx necklace. Yes, it’s from Tiffany! I have to give Natalie credit for that idea — although I did pick it out myself! Amazingly, it was perfect for Carrie’s birthday dress!

Dan wondering what Carrie has on!

Dan asking if Carrie is wearing a dress or a shirt… Later he commented to Carrie’s 13-year old sister, Macey, “You will never have anything that short.” LOL!!!

After the birthday cake Carrie made it known that, “We are going to put the music back on and everyone is going to dance!”

Some people needed encouragement, but my family was definitely not among that group!!

If you haven’t gotten enough you can see more photos here including Friday night, party prep, the party, and the after party!!

Still not enough? Go see JFLO’s photos!

Enjoyed it so much — thanks to everyone for making Carrie’s 30th birthday amazing!
