My Mom and I had some fun with the Oscar Themed Food This Year.
YES. He’s ggggguilty. TIME TO CELEBRATE!!!
What else is there to do then…drink Mimosas! 13 years to the day he got acquitted. If you don’t believe in karma….I hope you do now. The only thing we were missing this morning was a black glove to go with our mimosas.
Also, I know I am behind on posting pictures from The Intense Individual Party….things have been a bit crazy. There are some amazing shots…. Our wonderful photographer Jackie Wonders
did a great job of documenting the night and I will be posting the pics in the next couple days. Until then…enjoy this epic photo from this year’s party.
