a birthday for Gillia

I think we can say that my sister Gillia's birthday has been duly celebrated!

First, there was the family get-together, for which she and my mom cooked absolutely deLICious pizzas ...

Mmmmmmmmmmm. Yum.

(Here are Mom, Nana and Chance during the festivities.)

Then, it was time to really celebrate her turning 21, with a night of pub crawling around Capitol Hill. Unfortunately I spent most of my time drinking and not enough time taking pictures (and bars, being dark, are notoriously un-photogenic), but I did manage to capture the first legally-ordered drink ...


... and the enjoyment of the Greek-style plate we ordered at Bleu Bistro for dinner (mmmm) ...

... and Gil's ultra-sexy pool shark stance at the Deluxe, where we fled for the comfort of old friends and drinks we knew would be yummy. Mmmmmm. And fries. Did I mention fries?

Happy Birthday, Gillia!
