It was that time of year again, when some of my favorite people turn a year older, which means it must be time for a party! The history of this party dates back as long as I've known Theresa and Bryan, and probably longer. Bryan's birthday (Mar. 31) falls 6 weeks before Theresa's (May 12), a fact she will never let him forget. When Bryan married Laura, and we realized her birthday (Apr. 22) was in the middle of the two, she got added to the celebration, as did Vince (Apr. 12) and Marj (Mar. ?). Vince however, was a no show this time (for the second party in a row hosted in his honor) and he will surely not live it down, the dork.
I hosted the party this year and it was a fun time. The highlight was Steve Lord showing up with birthday balloons, hats, tiaras, etc. for each of them that said "Happy 21st Birthday", "Happy 30th Birthday", and "Happy 50th Birthday" - none of which are even close to being accurate.
Tom, despite suffering all week with a kidney stone, came down for the party. I still can't believe he rebounded in time for the party! He even grilled us awesome kabobs. Diego made his signature sangria which was a big hit, and I made a gluten free german chocolate cake - I don't know about anyone else but it's my favorite!! :-)
It was a fun time, I can't wait until next year!
