I got all sorts of really cool (and much needed) stuff for Guatemala. A head lamp, flashlight, and of course, a mosquito net! What more could a girl ask for?
I was also given a bunch of headbands, which I LOVE. In Brazil it was so hot and humid that my hair was in a bun everyday. I felt like a boy, and quite unattractive! This time I was determined to find something I could do with my hair to feel more feminine - which is where the headbands come in! They are cute and fun, and this one can work as a sleep mask if I want to sleep when the sun is up, and as a face cover if the smells ever get to be too much, or if I need to make a quick exit out of the country without anyone recognizing me :-) I love things that have multiple uses!
My mom and dad made me this REALLY cool gift wrapping station. It has everything I need to wrap presents right at my fingertips. I have been running to my parents house every time I needed to wrap a gift for the last two years. This is SUPER cool and will be used often!
It was really fun to get to spend time with everyone before I take off. I really do have a fantastic family!
I'm not quite sure what I will be doing on my actual birthday this year, but I already feel very celebrated and loved!

That sure was a fun party wasn't it? I love all the pictures. They made me laugh. Well especially the face mask one. :) I sure am going to miss you while you are gone! Be safe and have fun!
Are you going to be blogging in Guatemala? Please say yes.
How great that you could celebrate your birthday with two very special girls! And I love that your cupcake has as many candles as Ivy's!
So fun! Well - happy early birthday! And I super hope you enjoy your adventure this summer!!!
I'm sure you will be doing something quite exotic and wonderful on your birthday... I'm glad we got to celebrate a little bit with you before you left!
