French Quarter Birthday Celebration

Tomorrow is my Carolina friend Elisabeth's 15th birthday, and since she and her family are in town but leaving today, we decided to celebrate a couple of days early. While E and her family, along with QP and UJ, went to the Endymion parade, Mom, Dad, Kenny, and I headed straight to the Quarter to get set up for a surprise birthday dinner party. Of course everything was colored Carolina blue, and the birthday girl was pleasantly surprised when they got back and she discovered us in the apartment. We ordered Chinese food for dinner and had delicious chocolate birthday cake for dessert. What a great way to spend their last night in New Orleans! Happy Birthday, Elisabeth!
