Birthday Party 2008

Birthday Party 2008
That's right, 2008 I turned 28. Donald and I have birthdays in the same week so we decided to have a joint birthday party, incidentally on the day of my birthday (since it was a Friday). I wanted to do some old-school party games, but for adults.

One of the ways we did that was by ordering a piñata.

We also couldn't resist a penis and fish rum cake. (I almost didn't put this up here, but I got the penis mold as a present many years ago and I'd lie if I said I didn't use it...often. So, a bit risque, but I think it's funny -- and so did the guests! BTW, the fish mold was not mine. I found it stashed in the cabinets and it must belong to the landlords. I just couldn't resist the symbolism of the two together -- plus they fit! A sure sign from...somewhere.)

But we had a "normal" cake, too (funfetti w/ chocolate buttercream frosting). The 28 was for me, the other candles (24 of them, a whole box) for Donald. I kept telling him he was a whole box of candles.

Our friend Chris brought us two presents: an adjective and a noun. The adjective: Naked. The noun: Bitch. We're saving both for another special occassion.

Ben took a lot of the pictures at the party (which was great!)

We did a line of buttery nipple shots for Anja, who was stuck in Colorado and could not attend. :(

Then it was time to have fun with the piñata!

Later we did Pin the Fruit on the Mixed Drink. There were cherries (to go on the spear above the drink), olives (to go on the spear in the drink), and fruit slices (to go on the glass rim).
