bday

so, i had a birthday

and it was great fun

thanks to my mr. r,

my kiddos and girlfriends!

(excuse the horrid phone pics)

sutton's face expresses my inner birthday joy.

the week before we explored the christmas market, which i really enjoy. here's a little glimpse. for three little inexplicable reasons, we haven't gone that much recently.

and, i saw billy elliot.

this is our billy. he is 11 yrs old., and just brilliant.

he also happens to be a good friend's son!

we got a little backstage tour. helps to "know a guy" in this town.

here he is with an adoring fan.

good times.
