My birthday!

I had the most wonderful birthday!  Ken surprised me with an overnight trip to Ruidoso, NM.  There's a little town with shops and restaurants.  And a giant resort and casino that we stayed at.  We shopped, walked, ate, and drank.  Makenna stayed with our friend Jess for a few hours, and then Angela and Dave overnight.  They all did just great.  My work was a little busy and I started getting phone calls early in the morning.  So we got up, ate, and headed back to town.  What a nice little escape!

Angela and Dave hosted a nice dinner for me and a few friends a few nights later.  Here are some photos.
