Happy Birthday, Dad

Today would have been dad’s 75th birthday. To celebrate his life, Brett, mom, Em, her boyfriend Morgan, and the Speirs family next door went yesterday to the Hyatt Regency of Greenwich for the fantastic Sunday brunch. We went last year on the same day for Dad’s birthday and afterward surprised him with tickets to a Mets game later that afternoon – the post from that day can be found here. Our family loved the brunch at the Hyatt, to which we had been many times over the years, especially when Em and I were younger and easily entertained by the magician who used to visit tables, and fascinated by the incredible ice sculptures on display – not to mention the fresh donut machine that used to churn out delicious treats to be covered in chocolate or sugar at will. Now as adults, it was just as much fun to watch Dylan and Morgan Speirs enjoy the new treats that the brunch has to offer – including a chocolate fountain into which strawberries and marshmallows can be dunked. We had a really wonderful meal, it was the perfect way to celebrate Dad’s birthday.

Happy Birthday Dad!

Although it’s after midnight and therefore no longer June 1st, I want to wish my dad a very very happy birthday!!! We started the day having a delicious brunch, followed by a relaxing tea on the deck, and concluded the day attending the Mets home game hosting the Dodgers which the Mets ACTUALLY won! The weather was beautiful and the whole day couldn’t have been better. I really hope he enjoyed it as much as I did.

Here’s to you dad! I hope you had a truly enjoyable birthday with many, many more to come. I love you.

Happy Birthday Dad

HAPPY BIRTHDAY FRANK!
