Birthday, Bubbly, and Bob

caywood station--Here's one thing we couldn't do if we lived in L.A.: Celebrate Karen's dad's 70th birthday in the rustic warmth of Caywood Station! A whole gaggle of Bob's loved ones converged upon the Finger Lake's region for the event: Ann (Karen's mom and chief party planner), Robin (Karen's sister and chief toastmaster), Jim (Karen's brother-in-law and all-around Renaissance man), Jake (Karen's nephew and well-rounded scholar/athlete), Emma (K's niece and head tap dancer), JoAnn (cakemaker extraordinaire), Pat and Jim (expert canners and wine makers), Emily (famous for many things, but eternally beloved for her famous Buffalo Wing Dip, Sarah and Fred Vergamini (beloved friends and Finger Lakes natives), Amy, Jay, and Lucy (wonderful neighbors who you've undoubtedly grown fond of though their own blog).

Food was eaten, drinks were drunk, dances were tapped, and toasts were toasted. There wasn't a dry eye in the house after Sis's touching tribute to my wonderful Dad. We had a fine time celebrating Dad's so far 70 grand years, and look forward to the many adventures yet to come.
