Happy Birthday to Casey



Happy Birthday to Casey today!!!


Isn't this a beautiful cake for Casey's birthday?    Carolyn made it from scratch and brought it to Dixon for an early celebration.



Carolyn cuts up the cake, Linda, Melody, Brittany, Jill and Patrick are all enjoying the cake.



Where is Casey?  Where is Betty?  

Betty is behind the camera, not in the picture.   Casey???  The celebration goes on without the B Girl!   Casey does not have rabbits entered in the show but came by to visit.  She left the showroom before Carolyn came in with the cake.   With technology, Casey was able to see her cake real time by using the smart phones but she missed out on the delicious taste.
