Thank you, everyone, for all of the birthday wishes! I had a great birthday on Monday. After spending my last birthday in Odegaard (the huge UW undergrad library) working on my thesis - anything would have been an improvement! But it was really a good day.
I went out to lunch with my girls (behind me is Christin, next to me is Jayme, and behind her is Tomina - we're all nannies and we go to the same church) - we had "Moroccan" food. The food was good, but it wasn't really similar to anything I actually ate in Morocco... I was really hoping for some tagine. But I did get chocolate cake with peanut butter cups, so I'm not complaining!!
Later, I got more cake and way too many presents from my boss. Then I met up with my girls again! This time, a couple of my dance friends were able to come, too.
Annie is the one in the back corner, and Bea is in front.
I had more cake.
Then, Tomina and I tied the knot*.
All in all, it was a good day.
*Seriously, though, it looks like we're tying a knot, right? Now we know where the expression comes from...
