Birthday Festivities

Irene's birthday was about a week ago, and there wasn't a lot of time to celebrate the day because of school and concerts, etc.  But we spent the afternoon drinking coffee and eating assorted desserts, playing birthday-themed bananagrams, and chatting away.  And she received a very nicely wrapped present :)  Just a bit of quality sister time!

Happy Birthday Irene!

Happy Birthday to the coolest little sister EVER!  Irene turns 17 today!  Here she is playing her first public gig with a group that she formed with her friend.  They're called Young Mountain; they write their own songs and are pretty promising :)
