Hard to believe a whole year has passed since Nikki's last birthday, but here we are!
I have had the great fortune to see Nikki twice since her birthday last year at two OS get togethers in the city. I have re-posted photos from those events here just as a reminder of what a great time we all had!
Please join me in wishing Nikki a very Happy Birthday today!

The OS get together last August 3rd at Cooper's Tavern in the city:

To me? Nikki etc. is like attending a sweet sixteen party.
Each party attendant has a exposed, pierced, belly button.

I swear I washed some clothes. I hung them on the porch.
