Doreen's Birthday

On Saturday evening, March 14, 1998, Doreen crossed over the fabled chronological threshold commonly known as "the hill". After months of planning, the evening was finally celebrated in grand style at The Plush Room Cabaret and close to eighty of her family and friends were there. Here's the story of the evening in pictures.
