Shirley & Jessica's Birthdays

We've celebrated a few birthdays in the past few weeks here, but we'll start with Shirley's since it was first!

We took family photos not too long ago, and went to lunch afterwards, since it was such hard work ;)  That evening, Ms Shurl was having one of her 3 celebrations for her 25th bday, so we were all teasing her a bit about celebrating at the turn of every corner. 

 ...and at Casuelas (where we went) they embarrass you a bit on your bday, so at the end of our meal, the server asks something like, "was everything OK" and someone responded something like "ask the birthday girl" ...so they said enough to have them ask, "Is there a birthday here today?  Who's birthday is it?"

...a bday song later, here's Shirley all smiles :) (and yes, totally sarcastic, she was not a happy camper) ...

 ...then the actual family celebration was over at our house. 
Menu: pupusas
