Fiat Birthday Bonanza!

Birthdays are a big deal around the Fiat House. There are usually signs on the walll, birthday music, and of course, cake.

This year, it was time for a new medium to celebrate. I (April) woke up at 7:00 on birthday morning to find my car like this:

Back windshield

New name for a day

Because Chitty Chitty Bang Bang was already taken

When dinner time rolled around, the three of us went where every person within a 15-mile radius goes on their birthday – Mexican Village. Why? Free birthday meal!

Not only did we meet there, but Kristin and Marita arranged a last-minute party and gathered nearly 25 people there! Impressive, I know. I’m hiring them out as party-planners and official fun-havers once fall comes around.

My most memorable part of the evening – the speeches. Not just any speeches. These are speeches in a foreign language (Spanish and German) with an official “interpretation” given by Kristin Molitor herself. The fact that she doesn’t speak a lick of either is exactly the point. It’s only to her credit because we laughed all the harder.

Here’s her interpreting the German speech into English:

The one in the sombrero is Dirk Wolf, a close family friend actually visiting from Germany. He came as soon as he heard about Mexican Villages Chicken Fajitas. He was good enough to indulge our excitement in another foreign tongue.

We muchachas posed for a last picture before the big night was over.

¡Fantastico!
