Kye Kye's Retirement Party!!

My mom, Kye Kye, decided to retire this year. After many years of teaching throughout the community, the most recent grade being Kindergarten, it was very bittersweet for her.

To honor the occasion, Kim and I (with a lot of financial assistance from my Dad) decided to throw her a (ladies only) retirement luncheon at Campagnia Restaurant.

It was a really nice party and I think everyone had a great time.
