With five family birthdays and Mother’s Day falling between April 26 and May 19, we have a mega-party when we can all get together at that time. Over the weekend, Kathy was here, and we were able to celebrate birthdays for her (April 26), Dean (May 3), and Kari (May 19). Teddy (May 15) opted to wait for his “real” birthday and Thom (May 4) wasn’t here. Mother’s Day (May 8) was also included, with my traditional Vienna Torte birthday cake that I postponed until I could share it with the group. It was fun to have so many things to celebrate and to spend a weekend together.
