More birthdays

My niece Laura, my sister Alina's daughter who's been attending university in Paris this semester, had her birthday last week. We had cake and a few friends over to sing Happy Birthday to her.

My sister was also in Paris, since they were planning on doing some traveling together. Unfortunately, that was before Laura hurt her knee badly the night before her birthday; she has to have an operation and both will be returning to Bogotá shortly.





Just two days later it was my sister's birthday, so we took her out to lunch to our beloved La Fabbrica, a great Italian restaurant that has preserved the old bakery shop frontage. The restaurant is very close to our apartment, so Laura hopped along on her crutches. 

And later at home, millefeuilles for everyone when the kids arrived from school.
