First summer bbq of 2009!

To further the festivities of Ale's first birthday, we enjoyed the inaugural summer bbq of 2009 on January 17th in solarific Burgess Park with ~20 friends. Even Cousin Leslie made it up from Monterey. We grilled up some chicken and sausages, together with other yummians. Jeanette made Ale a fancy sunflower swirl cake...which Ale was thoroughly disinterested in...
