Happy birthday, Brenda!

Now I remember what Brenda was doing with a pair of striped socks... We snuck around for a week to plan her surprise party at Pannu Pizza. We thought our secret was blown when Anna and I went to the Center to buy the cake, and Brenda happened to be on a mission to take pictures of downtown Oulu at the same time. Fortunately, we saw her first and ducked into a shop. I think she was surprised...

Blowing out the candles on that cake from downtown, roommate Riitta looking on.

I got Brenda socks for her birthday. But wait! Not just any socks! Socks from Marimekko! (It's a Finnish brand name.) I think maybe she liked the bag better than the socks. The bag ended up on her wall. :)

Brenda with conspirator extraordinaire Lindsey. Lindsey's job was to get Brenda from Linnanmaa to Pannu Pizza at the right time for her party. She had quite a job! Lindsey could very well have graduated with a degree in acting, rather than that useless biology and math thing...

Two of Brenda's well-wishers, Rhet and Juana.

More happy (some more happy than others) party-goers... Juana, Jason, Lindsey, and Jorg.
