    Last year I had my dream birthday for my 40th! My amazing husband threw me a huge, classy party. He rented out the Pearl Studio here in San Antonio and had our favorite musician play (Terri Hendrix accompanied by Lloyd Maines). We had an open bar, wonderful finger foods, and tons of my friends. It was kinda the big wedding we didn't have 15 years earlier. Don't get me wrong, we had a wonderful wedding, it was just on a much, much smaller budget. I requested no gifts, but if people wanted to do something, to make a donation to the Alzheimer's Association in honor of my dad or to the camp for children with special needs where my husband and I met. I was so touched by how many friends made donations to celebrate my birthday. That is my dream birthday come true!

    "Happy Birthday! We've collectively decided smuggle you to Mexico!"

    "But my birthday's not for another week!"

    "We drugged you for a few days, so you'd wake up on time."

    "Woh. Best surprise ever, you guys are the best!"

    Then we would drink tequilas on the beach for the rest of the day. Maybe accompanied by a few stray dogs and a mariachi band.

    My dream birthday celebration would be a trip to a foreign country to help at an orphanage for awhile.

    Or as a plan b, throw a community picnic with homemande raspberry ice cream and have all the party-goers give gifts to my favorite charity instead of to me! :)

    My dream birthday celebration would definitely be a trip to NYC with family. I have always wanted to go there, and having someone give me a trip to NYC as a birthday present would be absolutely fantastic. :)

    ...una festa a sorpresa, con il mio amore, la mia famiglia e tantissimi amici...abitando sulle rive di un piccolo lago in piemonte (italy), mi piacerebbe una festa sul battello, dove musica,buffet,mille lucine e palloncini colorati, attraversano il lago a suon di musica e allegria spensierata,una fantastica torta,il volo in cielo di mille palloncini e lanterne illuminate,e subito dopo la festa, partire insieme al mio amore per una splendida vacanza da sogno!Woww...sarebbe davvero fantastico!

    my dream birthday would be waking up to the smell of smiley face pancakes and coffe, then a little tea party in a blooming english garden with my family and close friends,and at the very end, taking a long, starry night walk to think about how wonderful it was to be born that day.

    In my dream fantasy life...I'd spend my birthday on the grass in front of the Eiffel Tower, wearing the most ruffliest and sparkliest dress ever! I'd be picnic-ing with my family and best friends! And it would be warm out with this nice cool breeze! And then, the day would be finished off with us walking the streets of Paris and eating gelato! ;) Awwww... A girl can dream!

    Well, my 21st birthday is coming up in October. If I had my way, I would grab my boyfriend and my camera and head to Paris. No suitcase is needed because we will spend the day in Paris shopping in various vintage and antique stores. Then we will eat at the most delicate and delicious places. At the end of the night we will stroll through the streets of Paris and hopefully time travel to the 1920's and meet all of my favorite famous artists.
    That, would make my life.

    I think my dream birthday celebration would include 3 things:

    1. All the my favorite minds out there. Emma Watson, Rachel McAdams, Matt Damon; people that have used their success to make a difference in the world. I don't like it when successful people just hoard money :( Seems a bit pointless.

    2. I'd loooove to cook for the entire party. I'm an amateur chef and I'd love to hear what people think of my food (I know it would be my birthday but still!)

    3. I'd love to be wearing a dress by Christopher Kane. His designs are absolutely amazing.

    I think that's all....Oh and my close friends would have to be there too, obviously :P

    My dream celebration would be watching my boyfriend make my homemade birthday cake. I would make a wish. I would wish to kiss and hug my dad, who passed away from cancer five years ago. My wish would come true, and my dad would finally be able to meet my best friend and boyfriend.

    my dream birthday celebration is to have a 50's themed party with my close friends, where everyone will be dressed like the 50's, rocking & rollin' to tunes like 'Tequila'. The 50's is my favourite decade... and I never got the chance to have a 21st birthday party like most of my friends did...
