A Martini Masquerade

Moving right along to April 16th, We celebrated Ashley and Jarrett with a Martini Masquerade themed couple's shower.  Our Supper Club friends were the perfect hosts- thinking of every detail- right down to the most creative Bride and Groom masks!  

Green Apple-tini's and Ashley's favorite- Raspberry Lemon Drop Martini

Jambalaya and various Fat Tuesday cuisine filled our bellies:)

Love these hostesses :)  Jacqueline, Baby Boy T, and Diana

The Guests of Honor

Ashley with her some of her best girls..That mask on my face left me looking like I had been beaten with a bat.  The blue rubbed off onto my cheeks and nose..grrrr..

My Supper Club girls..and this was the last picture I got before dropping my precious camera.  Not a scratch on it- but the darn thing wont even turn on.  SICK, sick about it. :(

The Bridesmaids (minus Lo..poor girl was traveling for work)

MOH Katie and Amber

Now.. what Mardi Gras party wouldn't be complete without a King Cake.. Jarrett found the baby :)  The Tapella's and Cabrera's decided on the award for the individual the found the King Cake Baby.. kick off  karaoke.  Jarrett was the lucky man.. clearly seen here pleading his case.

 His pleading did not work.... Madonna's Material Girl was the song of choice.

 And it turned into quite the entertaining show

What could be better than these pictures??  Oh... a video. :)

Our turn next..sorry, no video- that I've seen anyway.

We giggled our way through Britney Spears, our second choice after we realized Spice Girls was not an option.

 Ashley and her proud parents- love me some Scott and Deb  :)

 Beautiful Masked Ladies of the night. 

 WHAT and AWESOMELY fun shower :)  Hard laughs, karaoke, dancing, and good company.  The fun isn't over, yet.. T-minus 2 days until our girls gettaway to Austin! 

29

That past Thursday was Jordan's 29th birthday- and we celebrated with an evening out- just the two of us. 
He worked at the station on Wednesday- I had a treat for him when he got home Thursday morning- YUMMY caramel and chocolate cuppy cake from Market Street's bakery.  DELISH.

Thursday evening we treated ourselves to at Hoshi Hibachi and Sushi.  Much to my surprise- after his visit to Sushi Zushi, and then a restaurant at our resort in Mexico..and again in College Station, J has become quite the sushi lover.  Eating sushi was once something I could do only on dinner dates with girlfriends- but now I can share a roll with my sweet :)  SWEET.

Dinner was delicious..can't wait to go back! This place was so close to our house, too.

Jordan all smiles with his Volcano Roll- so good!

After dinner we went to see a movie- Unknown.  Pretty good- spent most of the movie a little confused, and I was happy to know Jordan was, too!  It was such a perefct night with my sweet man.

Friday I took off work so we could spend time together- we had a busy weekend ahead of us (more blogging to come!) and I didn't want his birthday to be left in the dust.  Jordan was under the impression that we were going to breakfast that morning- up until the doorbell rang... Two massage therapists were there to provide us with a couple's massage, right in our living room!!  My jaw-dropped husband quickly tranisitioned to excitement as we relaxed for an hour of silence, right in the comfort of our own home. 

Needless to say- he had a great birthday- and I had just as much fun planning it for him :)  Love you, my sweet (29 year old) fireman!
