Birthday party on Lummi

Some pics from Seth's friend Henry's birthday party this afternoon on Lummi Island: http://remmel.shutterfly.com/2445

We all had a nice time. Thanks to Henry's parents Michelle and Michael for hosting us!

Basketball note: The Celtics won today to sweep the Knicks and advance to the second round of the playoffs, where they will likely face the Miami Heat (led by LeBron James and Dwayne Wade). I think one key to that series will be whether Jeff Green of the Celtics can play reasonably effective defense against LeBron. Paul Pierce can defend LeBron reasonably well, but he will need help, otherwise he may get in foul trouble and expend too much energy on defense to be effective on offense, where they need him. I think this is why they traded Kendrick Perkins to get Jeff Green - Celtics GM Danny Ainge was more worried about defending LeBron in the playoffs than Dwight Howard of the Orlando Magic. He was right about the Magic, who look like they're going to get upset in the first round (down 3-1 to Atlanta). We'll see whether he was right about Jeff Green, who hasn't looked comfortable yet with his role on the Celtics.
