Happy Birthday, Kirk!

We celebrated Kirk's birthday (born New Year's Day) in Sacramento this year. Last year, we were in Denver. Seems we celebrate his birthdays out-of-town and it's fitting to honor his birthday with much celebration! We were preparing his birthday dinner at home (we go out the following week ... resting from holiday food!)

Make a good wish, Kirk

Happy, Happy Birthday and many more to come

We love you!
