It all started because I wanted to have a dance party. I suggested the advancement committee I've been helping with at Jack and Liza's school put one on as a fundraising event during the 22-23 school year. The idea gained no traction. I asked Ben about having one for our 20th anniversary in May of 2023. He didn't love the idea. So when I realized that I could just throw one for myself for a certain milestone birthday I had coming up, and I didn't need to run it by anyone else, I went for it.
I rented a venue. I found a DJ. I set up a caterer and ordered a variety of Nothing Bundt Cakes. I designed invitations. All of those things could be done in advance, which worked out great because I didn't want to be stressed on the day of the party. Thankfully, Cool Aunt Suz was in charge of the set-up and decorating, and she did a wonderful job. It all came together so well!
Set-up crew
Suz did so much planning and prep before she even arrived!
We had a few games set up for the kids to play, in case they got tired of dancing.
I loved that Liza and Andy did an encore performance of their "Ice, Ice Baby" duet from the December reunion. They killed it!
Watching this video makes me so happy.
Several of Liza's friends came and they were dancing the whole time!
Val & Chelsey
Jo, Desiree, Jen, and Megan
Beau, Erin, and Emme

I loved seeing family and friends, talking and catching up, dancing, and just having fun! It was an awesome way to celebrate 40 years of life.
