1. To observe (a day or event) with ceremonies of respect, festivity, or MUCH rejoicing.
If anyone knows me long enough they'll figure out quickly that I love to celebrate people and occasions. If there is reason to throw a party together, I will find one. I simply love to see something come together from the start and into completion. The benefit I get from the work and efforts is to see those around me smile and have fun.
I even celebrate holidays that have nothing to do with me. Oh, I can become Irish for St. Patty's day... Watch me.
When it was my 40th last month, as those close to me know I agonized over this "event" for the months before- not wanting to mark this part of my life's timeline at all.
Ugh, who wants to mark 40?
With the clock ticking, I decided to chop my husband's MUCH loftier ideas down to an intimate dinner party in our very own back yard. Instead of gifts, requested donations for the Hope for Dinner/ Run for the Border Non-profit in July that Erik and I have been working hard towards- and this is what I came up with.
To celebrate indeed.
Enjoy.
