Katherine’s 33rd birthday party was held, strangely enough, on her birthday, Saturday, November 5th. Through a strange confluence of the stars, and the kindness of John’s sister Keri Stephany, Katherine actually got two parties. Both of them turned out to pretty pretty different affairs.<\/p>\n

Kath’s first birthday party was held at Billy Hardwick’s All Star Lanes<\/a>, where some of her most fun friends gathered to knock a few pins around.<\/p>\n

\"Kath<\/a> \"Bowling\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Kath actually smashed through the 100-point barrier that haunts her in the bowling alley, and every guest walked away with one of the finest gag\/silly gifts that the dollar store down the street could provide. (See-through plastic human body with removable, multi-color organs, anyone?) Anyone feeling a mite bit peckish helped themselves to a cake made of 98 “Fun Size” Milky Way candy bars, covered in “white” icing, and topped with an army of gummy bears. It was a little bit on the sweet side, but at least everyone tried a piece.<\/p>\n

After bowling and a little rest, we picked up a pinata at La Espiga<\/a>, one of the best Mexican joints in Memphis. We took it over to Keri’s party, filled it with candy, and everyone starting taking swings at it.<\/p>\n

\"Dave<\/a> \"Kath<\/a><\/p>\n

Needless to say, the pinata lost, but we had a blast bashing it open. (Sorry about your broom handle, Keri! I’ll try to remember to get you a new one…)<\/p>\n

All in all, everyone had a good time at both events, taking advantage of some outstanding weather for a November in Memphis.<\/p>\n
