The Student Life department celebrated Veslava and my birthday with a surprise party at a local restaurant. It was so much fun! In traditional Lithuanian fashion we received flowers. Mine were especailly beautiful and meaningful, as Vaida had fashioned a celebratory wreath out of fir branches from her yard. Wreathes are made to commerate special occassions - such as a 40th birthday. It was a fun way to celebrate with this wonderful group that I am priviledged to work with!
