In all honesty, by 25 I was hoping to have won an Oscar or at the very least be nominated for an Olivier so it was with mild dismay that I greeted my quarter century Birthday with neither of these accolades behind me. However, thanks to the power of good friends and family a wonderful time was had celebrating over a warm April weekend with love and laughter aplenty. Here are a few photos from my “Blush & Gold” themed party set up as well as some moments captured from the festivities along the way.
