Oscars 2012

It just so happened that the Oscars fell on Dane's birthday! So fun to have an excuse for a fancy party.
And of course, a cake :)
Thanks Kylie for making the cake, it was delish!
We had just about as much sparkly as we wanted. During the red carpet, during the best picture nomination review, and at the end of the event.
Everyone was very polite, but it was clear we were having an unspoken fight over the shrimp.
Sorry this picture is really awkward... it didn't look any better rotated horizontal. The red rose was a great touch!

Thanks everyone for coming to fill out your ballots with us! We had a great time!
So happy Meryl Streep won best actress! She's had 17 nominations and won 3!
And Octavia Spencer for supporting actress! Loved her in The Help!

So happy you have an annual party to look forward to! That cake looks divine, but I don't remember the last time I had shrimp - salivating.

Happy belated birthday, Dane! I've had that same experience with a shrimp platter! You've got to get your quota before everyone else has gone to town with it!! And there's something about chocolate and whipped cream-yum!
