Becoming 30... an amazing experience

I have to admit I felt extremely spoiled for an entire week. I turned 30 on 8/8/08 this year. Even the Chinese threw a huge celebration for me this year. Below is the recap with some pics. A very large and sincere thank you to all of my friends and family that made this my best birthday ever!

Angel Suite

My Mother booked cousin Andy's suite the Tuesday before my birthday and ordered us a great array of food and drink. It was great to have my cousins and a lrge group of friends join me in the suite for an awesome night watching my favorite team. They lost that night but that didn't seem to matter as we all had such a blast. Thanks Mom!!!!







8/8/08

My 30th birthday! Kristina planned such an awesome night. It was a downtown L.A. experience. We started out having dinner at Ciudad and brought some great wine (Sea Smoke Pinot for the red and Treana for the white). She picked out a great menu for everyone and brought some cupcakes for dessert. After Ciuudad we went over to The Edison and partied in our own reserved room (which was very important since the line to get in the place was insane). If you haven't been to the Edison, you should definitely make it a point to go, it is an old Edison power plant building converted to an upscale lounge. There was high ceilings, brick walls, and old power generators and boiler rooms. It had a very 1920's vibe to it. I took a lot of shots, and celebrated the company of my good friends all night. I felt very blessed thanks to my wonderful Fiancee.
