Birthday Girl

Karri's birthday was on Wednesday.  She worked from home for a bit in the morning, then took the rest of the day off.  We sent her off to get a massage while the kids and I scrambled to clean the house in preparation for Thanksgiving.  She and the kids did some baking - including a birthday pie (long story... friends bringing pie for Thanksgiving, kids wanted to make pumpkin pie, needed a birthday dessert... you get the idea). Later in the afternoon, she opened her presents and then we watched a few home movies from when the kids were little.  We don't do that very often, but always enjoy it when we do.  The kids really get a kick out of seeing miniature versions of themselves mugging for the camera.

After the movies, we took her out for dinner at bangbar - a relatively new Thai restaurant in West Seattle - and had a great meal.  Here's the birthday girl with her brood:

All-in-all, a very fun day.  I think she enjoyed herself.

Happy birthday to my lovely wife!
