What I Saw On My Birthday – A Video

Wednesday, January 20th, 2010

So, there are tons and tons of pictures and stories to tell from my 30th birthday party.

But, well, um, I’m still kind of too busy to put all those together for you.  So instead, I’m going to be really lazy and show you the video that was played during my birthday party.

Miss Britt’s 30th Birthday Bash Video from Adam Avitable on Vimeo.

I bawled my eyes out from beginning to end, FYI.

  1. avitable says:

    Happy birthday, Britt. :)

  2. Maria says:

    Crying all over this did not help my runny nose.

    Happy Birthday, lady. You are loved.

  3. it was truly a pleasure to be a part of that celebration. yaaaaaaaaay for celebrating you!

  4. muskrat says:

    Awesome! Great work, Adam. My 3yo loves being famous on the internet now.

  5. Dawn says:

    FABULOUS!!!!!!!!!!!

  6. Lynette says:

    Sounds like your birthday bash was fantastic! What a friend you got there

  7. Happy Birthday Babygirl. That video was awesome but so freaking long – I had to pause it to pee in the middle of it. And in your honour, I did not wash my hands. :P

    Also, if this kind of outpouring of love to you is any measure of a person, it’s is so obvious you are a rich, rich woman.

  8. bo says:

    You look exactly the same as in all those younger picture. Wow.

    Welcome to 30, Britt.

  9. Nancy says:

    Maggie’s Prince homage totally kicked ass. I’m glad you liked it. I had a blast doing it. I’m glad you had such a great birthday, you deserved every minute of it!

  10. Finn says:

    Wow. It’s too bad nobody likes you.

    Hope you had a wonderful day!

  11. B.E. Earl says:

    That’s pretty damned cool. Happy Birthday Britt and nice job Adam!

  12. Little Miss Sunshine State says:

    I didn’t get weepy until your Mom’s part with all your little girly-girl photos.

    Happy Birthday. I hope your 30′s ROCK.

  13. Aw Britt this had me bawling too. Happy 30th girl, you haven’t changed much over the years, always a cutie!!

  14. Damn, people love you!!
    :)

    Are you still alive? You didn’t implode when you turned 30?

    Good.

  15. Sybil Law says:

    I distinctly remember Adam saying I had to wear sparklers on my boobs and pop out of a cake, but I didn’t see that clip!
    Anyway, awesome, awesome awesome.
    Happy birthday!

  16. Awesome job, Adam!

    We love you, Britt! Sorry that my part was the dorkiest, but you know, I am Princess Dork.

    I love you and welcome to the 30s! Glad you’re here to take over while I go kick some 40s ass in a couple of years. :)

  17. Cherfi says:

    How great of all those people to do that for you – esp Adam. You are a lucky lucky girl- HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

  18. mel says:

    that is awesome! Happy Belated. Welcome to the 30′s.

  19. Tonz says:

    Happy Birthday Britt!!

    I will have to wait until I get home to watch the video though.

  20. Margaret says:

    Happy birthday a few days late. The video was awesome!

  21. WOW.

    Adam, my hat is so off to you right now you have no idea.

    Britt…. you are loved.

    Also, go Pack! We Wisconsinites can really sing. Clearly.

    xo

  22. RW says:

    Yeah we couldn’t get it together to send something so boo on us. I was going to do something about your use of the term ANYway but my wife’s actual real-life, you know, career, kinda got in my way.

    yeah… that’s it…

  23. SciFi Dad says:

    Happy Belated Birthday, Britt!

    (Great job, Adam)

  24. Chibi Jeebs says:

    Dude, how could you NOT cry?!? *I* cried, for crying out loud! ;)

    Awesome video. Happy (belated) birthday again. <3

  25. Mr Lady says:

    Dude, you have, like, the greatest mom ever. Seriuosly. That was amazing.

    Also, YOU WERE ONLY 29????

  26. Poppy says:

    I can believe you cried for the end part, but… the starting parts were all hilarious!!!! Why would you CRY?!

  27. Chris B says:

    Hi, sweetie, its been awhile since I last saw you (driving my car to prom) but I hope you have a great birthday. Miss you

  28. Happy birthday Britt! I’m glad I had the chance to be a part of the fun! I hope you have a wonderful year, your 30′s are going to rock!

  29. Glad you had a great time! Happy birthday again!

  30. whall says:

    In retrospect, I’m glad I went with the “breakfast taco interruption” idea and not the “if you’re under 30 and not a liberal, you don’t have a heart; if you’re over 30 and not a republican, you don’t have a brain” idea.

  31. [...] the first installment, I want you to go wish Miss Britt a happy birthday.  She turned 30 this past week, and a select few of us took the time and submitted happy birthday [...]

  32. MB says:

    Britt, you are a lucky girl to have someone like Adam in your life to round up and get hundreds of people who wish nothing but the best for you. You are such a beauty and I have no doubt you will rock your 30s. HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!

  33. GrandeMocha says:

    Loved the Prince song and Adam’s Birthday Cake! Did your birthday really have Adam on top of it?

  34. Sunny says:

    Happy Birthday from the blurs at 12:12!

  35. Amylou says:

    Wow! That was soooo sweet!! Happy belated birthday from a new fan!

  36. kapgar says:

    Sorry I’m a little late with the wishes, but happy Brittday!

  37. Kris says:

    Can’t watch because I’ll cry. (Ok, I made it through Dawg and Poppy’s and was already bawlin’…)

    Enjoy your 30′s, sweetie.

  38. Rachael says:

    That is sooooooo awesome! I hope that your birthday was everything and more – it sounds great!

  39. Whit says:

    My mom thought I was poop, too. Happy birthday, Britt and well done, Adam.

  40. Beautiful video. Happy birthday! (Awesome job, Adam!)

  41. Ah, just say this. Catching up with my reader.

    Glad to have participated because woman you need some happy times in this life.

    Hope it was a wonderful 30th. Believe me, as a mom, your thirties will fly by so fast. Take some time every once in a while to breath, look at yourkids, and know no matter what darkness is in your past, those kidlets are the shining light of your future.

    You are a bitchin’ mom and I am very happy to have found your writing.

    Now that Adam guy, hmmmmph…He’s like the bad fart that’s soooo bad it lingers so you smile and scoop an air cup of poo for a friend to enjoy.Heh!

    He is a keeper, for fuck’s sake. Start scooping. :)
