What's a Zero Party?!?

Over Thanksgiving weekend my family had a Zero Party. You might be wondering,  what exactly is a Zero Party? Well, it is a celebration to honor everyone in our family who had a birthday this year that ends in a 0. So if you are 0, 10, 20, 30, etc. This year we honored 15 people at the party- from 0 to 70! My dad's family is really big! His mom has 7 siblings and my dad has 5 siblings.

I got to be one of the honorees because I was 10 this year (even though I turned 11 last month). Every honoree had someone say nice things about them. And then we got little statues- like the ones from The Oscars (the theme this year was the red carpet). We all dressed up fancy and danced all night. I stayed up way too late! Here are some pictures from the weekend.
