Jasmine Elise Photography: tata's 75th birthday bash

today, we celebrated my grandmother's 75th birthday.

during the Christmas vacation, my family and i decided we would throw a birthday party for her, but never really went into good detail.

so, after church, i rounded up the gang, went to party city, and got ready to have a good time. i rode down with my mom. i blew up about twenty-five to thirty balloons on the ride to tata's house. with my lungs. i started laughing while i was blowing up one of the balloons, it slipped from my mouth, and started flying around in the car. it was dangerous, but quite funny. my mom laughed, so it's okay i say it's funny.

we arrived to tata's house, gave it the party feel, and we were good to go.

conversation about the spelling on the cake:
aunt mary: can you make sure it's spelled right. it didn't look right to me.
mom: t-a-t-a. yeah. that's right. that's how you spell tata.
aunt mary: i KNOW how to spell tata. i wanted to make sure cumpleano was spelled correctly. wow, lichi!
haha. oh, definitely too funny.

did i forget to mention it was a surprise party??

SURPRISE! her face is absolutely classic.

she sort of got scared, and started walking out of her house. oh, man. good times.

i bought a special birthday hat just for tata, but i have no idea where it went. i checked the cars, bags, under tables. it was nowhere to be found. so, thanks to my last-minute creativity, i designed these special hats just for her and her wonderful occasion.
