if she's thirty that means i'm not that far behind...ugh. but this is not about me (well it kind've is, this whole blog basically is but we'll pretend like it's all about her).
i met terra at bible camp when we were both 12. we were in the same cabin. she was mostly awkward with waist-length brown hair parted squarely down the middle and tucked firmly behind her ears, was literally always wearing pants (in the summer!), and hardly said 5 words to me the entire week of camp. we maybe didn't actually become friends that week. whatever.
this is actually not from camp but basically how
i remember her from that fateful year.
fast forward through years on staff at that same camp together, college together, countless road trips together, traveling overseas together, working jobs together, and going to more concerts than you can shake a stick at together and we arrive at her 30th birthday.
i'm not a huge birthday person but it feels like 30 deserves a party. so i was bent on making it a surprise party because it was more fun for me that way (again, most things are about me)! i facebook'd friends, her former co-workers, and some of her family. luckily, she had to work on saturday morning (i know, i'm a terrible friend for being glad my friend has to work on the weekend) so i had time to buy and deliver party favors and balloons to another guest to bring to the restaurant to get set up. it also gave me the time to make a coupon book from her dog with coupons that said things like, "this coupon good for: a dad."
so much love wrapped up in one collage!
check out casa rio if you're ever in anoka, mn!
yeah, the pic is sideways but the food was bomb.
parade watchers. two are still rockin' the hats.
we lost some people by the time we got to the bonfire.
this was just because i wanted to put this on here.
cheers to 30, ter!xo
