pics from my birthday

happy me! this was on our way home,

after about 6 glasses of beer... good thing the glasses

are only about 5 ounces.

John put icing on my face, and then everyone

told Ned to lick it off. He did so happily.

Here we are at Hot Pot!

Rita and Allen helping me put the candles in my cake.

I chose a dragon on my cake because it was the coolest looking one

at the store, and because the dragon is China's symbol.
