Birthday Celebration

Wednesday, March 30th, 2005

Kathy organized a fantastic post-birthday celebration tonight for our friends in Pasadena. We didn’t really have a chance to celebrate last week because we couldn’t eat dessert and we were travelling and ripping up carpet. So tonight we had barbeque at Robin’s and then a scrumptious chocolate cake made by Kathy! I [...]
