It's {almost} my birthday

And although I don't specifically always get what I want, haha, who am I kidding? I never get what I really want...I've been thinking about my next birthday which happens to be the big 3-0.
Holy peanut butter balls. 30. It's kinda silly to be thinking about my next birthday instead of the one that's next week. But I like to plan ahead.
So deep in thought about my next birthday I wholeheartedly decided what I am going to get and no one is gonna stop me--well, maybe my indecisiveness--but regardless. I might just overlook this birthday, but I have huge plans for the next one. So here's my list of two things:
1. A tattoo
It doesn't have to have a meaning, or some kind of symbol, like your kids birth stone {seriously, who uses that?} I just want something that's pretty to look at. A really neat piece of art. Now, if I can only decide what to get!
This one happens to be one of my favorite ones...just doodles, lines, and designs.
And I definitely want it on my arm though. I can't believe I've gone all my life adoring other people's tattoos while I've been too chicken to decide on one for myself. My husband even has two!
Here's my Pinterest Board of the tats I've collected for the past 2 years with acceptable {read: cool} tattoos:
SO, any thoughts? Any ideas? I know some people might disagree with tattoos or look down upon them, so can I just say that I've lasted this long without one, and is it now ok to get one in my almost-middle-age as a wife and mother of two? I promise nothing tacky, Mom ;)

2. And a birthday bash!
Full of DIY screen printing crafts with skulls of course,

Funny old-people jokes,


Lots of Balloons and delicious coctel de camarones
Margaritas and lounging----yuummm
And my frickin' face on my cake
...but first, I need to gather some real friends, not just internet friends, who will come to my bash.

I think though, we have plans to go to Picasso's Black and White and the Children's Museum so, that'll be fun. Cheers!

Boys 4th & 2nd Bday Photo-BLOW-Out

This was the boys {small} party invite.
I wish I could have printed it out, but it really wasn't necessary since it was just family.
We had fun, the kids had fun, the boys were up to their necks in Super Hero stuff.

Cheesy grins all around!

Everyone rocked their super hero getups.
Marshmellows dipped in chocolate ROCK!
...and yes, I made the cake.
Super-girls!!!
Kids just waitin' their turn
I made Jonah's piñata out of a balloon, engrudo {flour & water paste} and newspapers. 
I made it super thin so that he would be able to break it.
And now it was Batman's turn to be beaten to death.
Dale, dale, DALE!
He only wishes....
Even the old folks got up to beat him up.
Tia Betsy's dream came true, she made out with Batman. 
Half-Batman, Half-Spiderman
We went inside to eat cake and open up gifts.

He LOVES licking icing. 
Andrew thought I needed some cake too.
