I have in the past, tended to ignore my birthday.  But because of my “August event 2010” I know look at each new birthday in a different light.  I am glad to have them.  It is certainly better than the alternative.  My good, good friend Dr. Ann Romaker helped me celebrate this one.  We attended Time Out For Women here in Overland Park with a group of friends and she arranged for a group of friends to all go out to dinner and then have dessert at her house in celebration of my birthday.  Thank you Ann!!

Time Out For Women

 

We were entertained/enlightened by the likes of Hilary Weeks, Chris Williams, Merrilee Boyack, Michael Wilcox, Richie Norton, Laurel Christensen, Jenny Oaks Baker, Terryl & Fiona Givens and Sherrie Dew.

Then we enjoyed a delightful dinner with friends; Watkins, Ibas, Yanos, Speakmans and Thomas’ at the Grand Street Cafe in Kansas City, Missouri near the Plaza.

Then it was on to Ann’s house for desserts…and oh the beautiful desserts.
