Abu's 80th birthday party

My dad turned 80 last week! We threw my dad a beautiful party...well, my sister did most of the work (D kept me quite busy). Our theme was Argentina, the Ol' Country. We had LOTS of wine flowing, just how my dad likes, Maté's for decoration, yummy empanadas and Milanesa Sangwiches. I did contribute the Caprese Empanadas :).

Besides the good food and wine, there was also a touching moment, when estranged sister and brother were reunited. It was quite emotional and beautiful to watch. Enough with me...here are the pics from that night.

I love capturing these moments entre primos. How sweet is Da with my D. 

All tuckered out in daddy's arms.

 The highlight of the party. My dad hasn't seen his sister is well over 10 years. This was quite emotional. There was some laughing and there was some crying and then hugging. *Love*

The gorgeous Birthday Cake...very Argentine style - Merengue con Dulce de leche
