Happy Birthday Loryn!  Nice decorations— they remind me of an episode of The Office.  Next year we'll put someone other than Kendall in charge of party planning.

We celebrated Loryn's birthday this week.  I think if the decorations had been up to me I'd have made a more colorful choice, but for some reason, Kendall was put in charge.

So Loryn got deflated black, brown and gray balloons.  And a festive sign (that Kendall obviously worked very hard at): "It is your birthday".  You can't really see much of the trophy she was presented with, but it says "Fine Work Award".

If you're not a fanatical fan of "The Office"  (like some in our workplace), I can tell you that the decorating ideas were borrowed from an episode where the guys in The Office were put in charge of party planning.  What can I say?  It wasn't pretty in Scranton and neither is it in Vernon, VT.

But Loryn did get a kick out of it and we had a productive day at Vermont Woods Studios in spite of the occasional clowning around.

Happy Birthday Loryn!

Nice job on the cake, Manjula. Thanks!
