when a friend turns 30, how do you celebrate? {with photographs}

with hand-painted invites

and chalkboard signs.

with banners of bunting 

and freshly cut flowers.

   

with good friends

and road trips.

with scavenger hunts    

of challenges

and clues.

with sunglasses,

ancient trees,

and a bit of tourism.

with sweetgrass baskets

and bricks.

with a cotton gin

and fields of flowers.

with tree-climbing in dresses!

and cheese trays

with eating

and more eating!

and even more eating!!!

with trolley rides under red-lights ;)

with celebration and glee!

with elevator rides

  

and sneaky house museum photos

with the right amount of sass

and with friendship.
