As Easy Outline for Your Best Friends Birthday

What is better then when one of your best friends is having her birthday!! Here are 7 fun things you can do to make sure she has a perfect day!

1.Bake a Cake

a. Who does not love a homemade funfetti cake with funfetti iceing?

i. Make the cake extra special by spelling her name on top with hot pink iceing

ii. Make it even better and add tons of candles for her to blow out (make sure to not set the fire alarm off)

2.     Create a list of (however old she is) things she has to do!

a. Lets say your friend is turning 21, make her a list of 21 fun things she has to complete by midnight

b. Some of my favorites are:

iv.   Getting a picture with campus security.

3.    Go out to eat!

5.     Make a video from all of her friends

Kaitlin is a sophomore at Denison University in Granville, Ohio. She is currently studying Economics with a minor in Communication. When Kaitlin isn't studying, you can find her attending events for her sorority, Kappa Alpha Theta, writing articles, playing tennis, or watching Bravo obsessively.  As a Bravo fangirl, she would love to meet Andy Cohen.
