We went to a place called Campo di Bocce - so we played outdoor bocce ball!!! It was soooooooooo much fun. I love my friends - I am going to miss them so much when we move to London - but I'm also so grateful that so many of them are planning to come visit me already! My friend Christy has already booked her tickets to come out for Easter!
Mike's real bday isn't until November but I wanted to celebrate before we left - I had always wanted to do a big party for him - but this party was perfect - he was very surprised - Mike & I always do a Birthday Dinner every year with Linda & Chris - obviously this year with us being in the UK by November we won't be able to do it - so that was the guise to get him out to dinner....
All of our great friends that could make it
Heels aren't allowed so I had to remind the men not to wear Stillettos
Such a good sport!

And I LoVe that you still call me Hot Mama! heehee! That looks like such a fun place for a party and you had an awesome turn out! Also, I was right. If you can hide 25 weeks behind a glass, you are looking less prego than my 18 month postpartum bod!
