March Birthdays (2009)

Tradition dictates that Kristen celebrates her birthday with her godson Quentin, whose birthday is just 3 days before hers. (Another occasion of a mother messing up her child’s birthday, although Jocelyne did NOT have Quentin induced unlike SOME people we know…) Quentin and Kristen spent the Friday of the weekend together. One special activity was playing mini-golf on possibly the worst maintained course in the world. Quentin won. Back home, they played Animalopoly. Quentin lost and accused me of cheating, so we had to explain that we no longer consider him young enough to ensure he always wins through altruistic cheating, of which we WERE previously guilty.
The rest of the Collignon family arrived on Saturday. We had a great birthday dinner. Kristen had made an American birthday cake like she likes them best: Devil’s food chocolate with butter cream frosting. It was yummy, even if it was not the prettiest cake ever. The adults played a lot of tarot (a contract card game, nothing to do with telling fortunes).

Anybody seen the movie Caddyshack?
