| Panjee had a Harry Potter cake for her birthday. Other food for the
kids included pizza, spaghetti, and multi-color cupcakes. |

| Little Tricia helps Titas Menchu and Cookie prepare for the birthday
party. Note that the floor is still clean in this photo. The happy birthday
sign on the wall was imported from the Philippines by Nancy. |

| This photo shows Panjee opening her birthday presents on the kitchen
floor. |
 |
| Never a dull moment at Panjee's party. Here, Tita Menchu leads the
kids in dancing a song now popular in the Philippines called "Otso Otso." |
 |
| Mama Nancy and Titas Cookie and Menchu kept the kids occupied with
several games. Here, Tita Cookie and Tita Menchu hold the limbo stick while
the kids try to limbo under the stick. Tricia has joined in the fun and
does not need to bend down to get under the limbo stick. Note that the
floor is starting to look more like a party in progress. |
 |
| Here, the kids are back in the kitchen again. Note the colorful balloons
filled with helium on the ceiling. Later, the kids participated in Karaoke
and some were quite good. |
 |
| This group photo was taken just before the kids left. On the left is
the one brave boy who attended. |
