Amelie 'The Avenger' Lorenzini's 2nd Birthday Hat, 2006

The Avenger had her second birthday party at the big park in Huntington Beach.

I didn't know very many of their friends (though I'm sure I met most of them at the wedding), so I brought my camera and my Hat.

Hints for new viewers: if you click on one of the small pictures, you can see a bigger version, and then you can download an enormous version.
