Ashley's Birthday

Ashley had a tremendous birthday celebration this year.  She had one celebration shortly after Thanksgiving while we were in Hickory with her family.  The celebration continued back home in Connecticut where we supported the business, Book A Cook, which was founded by her friend.  A cook came into our home and used our kitchen to prepare a wonderful three course meal for us and eight friends.  The menu included fondue and risotto cheese puff appetizers, flank steak and birthday cake.  To top it all off, Ashley received three bouquets of flowers from her admirers (Daddy & Colby, her parents, and a colleague she is mentoring at work).
