After driving up a dark dirt road Thursday, we parked and I gingerly pushed side the door to a darkened apartment.
“Blaire … ? Are you there?”
As I cautiously entered the shouts began.
“Surprise!”
I hear my face was priceless.
On Thursday, several sweet girls from the island planned one crazy surprise party, disguising the bash as just another fun-filled girls night.
Balloons, streamers and a whole lot of crazy fun lay behind the darkened door. For a detailed description of the awesome-ness, check out my friend Sara’s blog – TheWhitsittFiles. She was nice enough to let me pilfer her pics for this blog.
We played tons of fun games that had us giggling into the late hours of the night, including the reappearance of my favorite bridal shower game – chubby bunny. Admit it. I am hot with puffy cheeks.
It was so sweet of these girls to put so much preparation into my birthday! The night left me smiling for days.
The party night snowballed into a few days, someone made me feel extra special with well-wishes on each one.
Then came Saturday (The Big One).
I woke up at 6 a.m. with sunlight already trying to peek over the jungly mountains. On went the shoes and as the sun rose and the waves splashed on the beach, I went for an amazing run.

After chilling at home for a bit, I donned the swimsuit and headed to the beach for some fun with friends … and the local orphan kids. From there, we went to our pal Lyndzee’s house for some BLTs and good conversation.
After lunch, I went shopping, at the request of my mother. It was a fun afternoon! This vid is for you mom 😀
