At last, photos from last Saturday's Birthday/Engagement party! Thanks to all who came, and special thanks to Rannie "Photojunkie" Turingan for these wonderful shots!

You can view the pictures either as an album or a slideshow.

Here are some of my favourites:

Photo: Joey and Wendy.
The birthday boy and bride-to-be. This looks like strangely like one of those promotional stills for an art film.

Photo: Joey and his present from Wendy: an 'Excalibur' accordion case.
Wendy's birthday present to me. This is the ultimate accordion travel case: the Excalibur! Adonized alumimum around a hard plastic shell, plus a telescoping luggage handle and wheels. It looks more like a hit man's rifle case than an accordion case.

Photo: Joey and his birthday cake. Thanks, Rory!
Me and my birthday cake. Note that I've changed out of the suit jacket and into a London Ambulance Service shirt that I received as a gift.

Photo: Joey and Wendy.
I love this shot. I think it's terrifically cute the way Wendy's bangs fall like that.

Photo: Dave Ahrens tries out the Secret Swing.
For the out-of-towners, a quick run to the Secret Swing! It's not far from the house, so Rannie took people on a tour. Here's Dave "Logan's Dave" Ahrens on the Swing.

Photo: Tom Reynolds tries out the Secret Swing.
Long-distance swinger! Tom "Random Acts of Reality" Reynolds, who came all the way from London, England, takes a go at the Secret Swing.

Photo: Christie and Liz.
The ladies! The ladies! Here are a couple of the lovely ladies who attended: Christie and Liz.

Photo: Dave and Wendy.
Awwww. Dave and Wendy. Dave got the "Dutch" work shirt earlier that afternoon from Kensington Market.

Photo: Wendy, asleep on Joey's love seat.
At 4 a.m. their mommies and daddies will take them home to bed, because they're tired little teddy bears. Wendy takes a late-in-the-party break on the couch.
