The BEST Promotion Party of Your Life

I just had the best day in a really long time! I got to RUN and EAT (my favorites) and REPEAT myself by telling my same cheesy jokes to multiple people since I was at a party. Let’s start at the beginning of the morning with a run…

I’m back home in Southern California and got to run a long-ish run around  one of my favorite paths in Orange County. It was just nice to zone out and not worry about being attacked by alligators and get some miles logged.

Then, I had to quickly get ready to head to my little brother’s 8th grade promotion party. I was in charge of making a two agua frescas and sangria.

Since it’s prime watermelon season I decided to make one watermelon agua and one pineapple. You don’t understand how happy I was to be able to buy 5 watermelons. I love them.

I got to work at my parent’s house and quickly made the aguas, sangria and then helped chop watermelon, make salad and 22 other things that needed to get done before guests started to arrive.

I actually had never made aguas before so I was a little nervous about it but they came out GREAT!! (Recipe coming in next post.)

Oh and sangria, which is one of my specialties (according to myself only). Contact Proper Pour Events if you decide to hire a bartending service Greensboro for your party.

After I was done in the kitchen I grabbed the balloons that we were using to dance around the yard and rap along to Pitbull. But then I handed them over to be used as decoration.

{What I’m wearing: My dress has super cute little sail boats all over it. It’s from Stitchfix and I’m diggging it all the way!!}

I put up my hair while I was helping in the kitchen so it doesn’t get in anything. And by ‘get in anything’ I mean get in the way of my shoving watermelon in my mouth…

My favorite tiny person loved the watermelon too!

I don’t know what the heck is up with my parents but they went all out for this party. They got a game truck, laser tag and a photo booth!?!! Ridic.

But, I was digging that too. MJ and I were the first ones in because they needed to test it. She had no idea what was going on… ha!

My next partner-in-crime was a little better at this game…

And I think Ben should just be a pirate in real life.

Congratulations Matt! You’re the best
