Hello Blogland!!! It’s time to PAR-TAY!!! I am feeling much better ( I lost 6 lbs last week-guess not being able to swallow has some advantages!!) and ready to get my groove on!! Hubster took me out to dinner for Chinese food tonite and tomorrow my daughter & hubby, mom, sister and family are all going out to dinner!!

We went to a couple of thrifts while out and I scored 3 never worn dressy-ish Lands End T-shirts and an Izod cardigan, plus another cardigan and T-shirt all for $9!! My kinda birthday shopping!! Who needs the stupid mall???

Ready to Party???

The sweet rainbow of happiness Krista and darling lil Peetee join the fun!!  MrBill and Peetee are going to spend some time tonite strategizing on how to select the tastiest cat-turds.

We were all settling down when to watch the snake charmer when there was a knock on the door!! I opened it to find the magnificent St. Helga, Queen of the Circus Desiree, the colorful MrsAlnutt and the fedora-rockin’ Artiste Joni on the doorstep. They were a bit late as they had to bail Helga & Wolver-G out of jail. It was something involving public rowdiness and descreating a church art installation. We all knew the charges were FALSE!!!

Helga downed her drink and grabbed Peetee and MrBill to give them a squeeze!!!

  1. Happy Happy Birthday!! Shaping up to be a roaring good party. That lamb dish is marvelously grotesque and macabre. Love all the fourlegs! Hope to get some cutie kitty pictures tomorrow to add to the party goodness. Pray that the monsters are in a picture taking mood.

  2. Happy Birthday Tamera! Your outfit is spectacular and all of the party participants look fabulous. I didn’t get a celebratory photo to you, but I wish you the happiest of days and a year filled with all that you desire.

    All of these pictures are extra-fabulous!! I wish I could be there in person to celebrate with you, and everyone else here for that matter. We’ve all found each others tribes for sure. I love how you expressed that.
    Have a wonderful birthday week Tamera. You light up the style blog land with extra hi-def pixels!!
    I’ll have what Clare’s having too.

  6. Desiree said:

    Whew that was a power-packed party honey! Happy birthday to you, you looked absolutely luscious!!! I sent you pics of my get-up but maybe they went to your spam/junk folder? Anyway, a party with the rat pack boys and all these bodacious babes gets me all hot and bothered!!! Fantastic!!!

    What a night! My head’s still ringing now! You were the bell of the ball in Sarah’s spectacular kaftan (followed very closely by Mr Bill and the diva! No wonder Peetee was all over her).
    That Clare’s terrible, one drink and she’s all over the place.
    If the snake charmer’s looking for her python tell her I sneaked him home in the globe bar! xxxxxx

    I love seeing you looking so fabulous in your leopard print kaftan, and ready to party! Of course The Diva steals the show, but then she would!

    Happy Birthday, Tamara!

  18. Looks like a pretty wild party. I bet the cops were called, huh?

    That caftan is wonderful! If I had one, I’d never take it off!

    Happy Birthday!

  19. Tamera, happy, happy, YOUR DAY! Everyone looks so lovely and FUN! I wanted to join the fun, but Life has been full, of, er, serious life stuff lately. I turned in my final exam in a class today, and then took The Teen shopping for a prom dress (we didn’t find one). I should have tried a few of them on, and gotten phone shots for the general hilarity some of the dresses caused ;P

    Love, peace, & grace,
    Lynne

    Wow! I have the same bar as Vix! Right next to my fireplace and it’s stocked. But I think Vix may be closer than me in Northern Alberta! Well easier flight connections at least.

    Hope your new year is everything you want it to be.

  21. You look fantastic in the leopard caftan and the pendent is so perfect with it!! Clare’s pic is too much! I love it all! Sounds like you got a great thrift store birthday haul!!
    Happy birthday!!
    Becky 🙂

    Finally I’ve surfaced! Still finding glitter and chicken feathers everywhere and I never want to see a hotdog as long as I live!! Your party is the best I’ve been to in ages. The food is just wonderful, so very shiny! Everyone looks great. Poor Mr Bill, why do boy dogs look so sad all the time? They’re very good at it. I love your kaftan! It looks amazing, you’re definitely the hostess with the mostess! Helga looks riotous and Joni looks super sexy. Congratulations on an amazing party! Xxxx great music too!

  23. Tamera what a party it was!!!! You looked amazeballs in your leopard caftan of sexiness! Had you wore the rainbow one I would have stole it 🙂 Peetee ate too much with Mr Bill but had the best time. He is still missing the diva and all her attitude! I loved seeing everyone getting their sass on. Vix is a sexy super freak and Desiree on the table, not surprising, Helga and booze 🙂 Hope you BURFDAY was HAPPY like you deserve!
