hypothetical clicky: 30th bday

Re: hypothetical clicky: 30th bday

  • it's a toss-up between maui and weeping, but i chose maui. you can always weep in maui, but you can't go to maui while you're weeping :)

  • My 30th this past June we held a big family/friend BBQ at our house. I got all the fav foods I wanted, steak and veg skewers, shrimp, scallops, it was AWESOME! Then after 4pm we all went up to Tulalip Casino and gambled away. Some of my friends got rooms and stayed. I ended up nodding off at a slot machine and my hubz had to wake me up and take me home! Sad thing, it was only 8pm. Sign I was officially 30, lol!
  • My H turned 30 on our honeymoon in Maui......I think he very much enjoyed that. Wink

  • I voted have the party with your friends, only because you and your DH seem to travel a lot together already. 

    It's YOUR 30th - do what you want. What people want differs.

    My 30th includes some family and friends, two magnum bottles of wine, a cabin with no running water and just an outhouse and floating a river in a pontoon boat.

    I'd rather go on a trip with some of my girlfriends. I've always wanted to go to Sedona, AZ and just totally pamper myself at some of those great spas with some girlfriends.
    I love Sedona!

  • I'm old, so I already had mine. My birthday is always near Thanksgiving, so it is hard to find people, and even so only a handful of folks showed up. On one level I didn't really care that much, on another I was sort of down that I didn't feel like I had a bunch of friends I could invite and/or who would show up.

  • I'm a SS - I'd pick Maui with H, but I'd want to bring our BFFs that married each other along with us. Could be Maui or some other fun destination.

    I'm a Thanksgiving baby too (this year, it was ON t-day, lucky me!) and nobody's ever around to celebrate. Sniff sniff.

  • I just got back from Maui, but I'd totally go back again for my 30th in ~2.5yrs. XD

    That said, I'd probably pick Europe if given a list of choices!

  • I picked a party with 25 of my closest friends...but that's mainly because my closest friends are all scattered around the country.  Getting them all together in one location would be awesome!! 

    I turned 30 about 3 weeks after moving here, so I literally knew no one in the state (I wasn't working...and it's hard to meet people when you never have a reason to leave the apartment!).  DH and I just went out to dinner at a place in Ballard and got cupcakes at Cupcake Royale.  Super exciting birthday. Stick out tongue

  • I said the party with 25 friends, because that's basically what happened - DH planned a surprise party for me. :) It was super fun and so nice.
