Girls Just Want to Have Fun

It was back to the 80's tonight with the girls from GDI. We met at Jen's parents house for a surprise birthday party for Jen. We were all dressed in our 80's attire, and had Jen dress up as well. Gayle and Greg provided the dinner, and Gayle and Jill provided the game. They had us play the Amazing Race to "30". This was a big birthday party to celebrate all of us turning 30 this year. We started out at WJHS and had to choreograph a dance and perform it. There must have been a basketball game going on, and it let out right while we were performing. Then we headed off to my parents house. There we had to sing the fight song. The next stop was our high school hang out, the Scone Cutter. There we had to sit in our booth, order a shake and eat it too (not a problem), and answer questions about high school (which happened to be a lot harder than we thought). WJ Middle school was the next stop. There we had to sing Girls Just Want to have Fun, and make a music video. The last stop was where a few of us would earn a little extra cash-Shopko! There we had to try to buy 30 items for less than $20-of course we didn't make it. Final stop back to the Wyner's house to say, "We love the 80's!. We also had cake and recieved our parting gifts. What a fun night. I have a great group of friends and am grateful that we have stayed close over the years. Thanks Gayle and Jill for all of the hard work!

I had to post this picture of Dana with her Units, head phones, bangles, retainer, walkman, blue eyeshadow and crimped hair, she looked great!!!

You totally should have borrowed the purple shirt with shoulder pads you wore for Halloween! I'm still laughing at your friend that wore a retainer! How funny is that! (And clever too!)
