Then it was on to Nikki's to get the festivities started.
Mmmmm...waffle fries with THREE dipping sauces.
(In ErinCrapser's words, "YES YES DERRRICIOUS")
We were all starving and very eager to chow down...
And to pound some alkies.
So excited, in fact, that Katie dropped a quesadilla in her first drink of the evening.
Little Smershio (in town for his big sis's b'day) entertained with funny impressions...
And some long lost friends showed up, all looking smiley and hot.
Even Kristy managed to rekindle her love of drink for an evening.
Deerfield kids Colin and Kate stopped by.
Colin speaks Chinese. And you know how I love me some white boys that love me some China. (I love you, Kevin Ferrone. )
These two aren't really used to being followed around by the paparazzi yet.
It was a drink-filled, food-filled, friend-filled blast.
The fun didn't last long though.
Nikki's closes at 1.
Luckily, Walter knew about some "afterparty". The kind where you walk in and the homeowner is in the living room with three friends and they all kind of glare at you with a look of who are you and why are you in my home.
Being a group about fifteen strong we kind of disregarded them and planted ourselves around the kitchen and dining room.
There were three beers in the fridge. Clearly no preparations had been made for this home to host an afterparty.
An hour later, William arrived with beer (after taking a pit stop on the way to 7-Eleven to help a drunk and bleeding woman escape from her overturned gasoline-soaked about-to-explode SUV.)
Beer makes everything better.
Birthday parties rule.
Happy Birthday my sweet little Smershio!
