We headed to Jenny and Andy’s place to help out with Keith’s one-year-old birthday party preparation on the weekend. Keith’s actual birthday was on the following Thursday… so, this was more like a pre-one-year-old birthday celebration.
The food preparation was A LOT of work. We brought our portable grill to their place, and I spent a good 2-3 hours grilling the chicken satays. The preparation went on well past midnight where Andy deep fried the shrimp balls at the deck until 3 in the morning.
The folks started to fill up the house fast on Saturday at noon. Lots of people and lots of food. Keith seemed a little uncomfortable with the busy scene, not to mention he was sick for the past few days. Richard behaved very well for most of the time. I was the “designated” photographer for that event, and somehow, I seemed to take more food pictures than people pictures. We couldn’t have asked for a better day because it was sunny and warm outside… certainly a welcoming sight.
We were beat by the time we reached home that evening. However, our tiredness was easily offset by the great food we had there.
Happy birthday, Keith!
