I love the smell of Aqua Net in the morning…

We went to an 80’s themed birthday party last night. Lots and lots of prep work to get ready. My handsome hubby researched his Billy Idol ensemble as if it were part of a case he was working on… very diligent and thorough.

Many looks were represented, but I think my friend Connie had the best outfit of the night. Hands down. I’m not sure where she hid them in that leotard, but I imagine it takes a big pair of balls to pull this off!

I just relied on heavy make-up and a lot of hair spray. While I was getting ready, Grant told his dad: “There’s something wrong with mom’s hair…”

Was soooo much fun! Happy birthday, Tanya!
