On the way to our table, we ran into Jack and Linda
before posing for family pictures with Sarah
finally opening her eyes
as Jane
Ben
and Suzanne (eyes closed)
insisted that my picture
be taken by Jane
who smirked at the idea.
The sugar pictures
and the salt shaker
were not up to the night before but Sarah modeled her new hair look
as the drinks came. I had apples and oranges
Jane had a Shirley Temple
Ben had lemonade
and Suzanne had a gin and tonic
as we nibbled bread
until Suzanne's salad
and mine
came and the anchovies
had to be removed from Sarah's
as Suzanne started her fish
Jane her burger
Ben his pizza
Sarah her chicken quesadillas
and me my 4 cheese pizza
and as we do every year, we wondered why we'd go to a fish house on Suzanne's
birthday since none of us (except Suzanne) likes fish.
The sunset
as we made our way to Lick'it
made us feel good as we completed our celebration of a wonderful birthday.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY SUZANNE!!
