Well, it was a week late, but there were good reasons. And, despite at least one slip up, Kathy wasn't aware of the event which Michael had been planning, and which was announced to the (all but Kathy) WetLeather special mailing list. And this despite her "incapacitation" and staying home Thursday and Friday, instead of teaching the scheduled MSF class! Michael even managed to bring the supplies in (to the garage/shop next door) without being noticed!
The birthday girl, ready to create a mini-Katrina on the candles.
Let the blowing begin. (I didn't get into position soon enough for a frontal photo. Hell, I barely made the party in time for this shot!)
Ah, candles out, time for a rest from all that blowing :-)
Katie on the prowl for food "accidentally" dropping from the humans nearby.
A nice day to be outdoors, celebrating the half century.
