Birthday(s) party!

Seth's Uncle Bud celebrated his 70th birthday this weekend at his home in Buzzard's Bay, just inside Cape Cod. His kids, Mark, Beth, and Karen, were there with their families, and Seth's parents and his Aunt Mare came all the way over from New York. Chrissy's family made it, too, and everyone was able to meet Annika. It was so much fun to relax and catch up with the family! It has been ages since we saw some of them, even though we live practically down the road.

Seth's parents came back to Waltham with us after the party and joined us for the New Music concert at Brandeis. This is where the composition graduate students have some of their pieces performed. I really wanted to hear Florie's work--she was in Seth's graduate seminar last year, but we met in Italian class back in August (we were probably the only ones over the age of 20!). Her boyfriend is Italian, so hopefully she will be able to come to visit us in Florence ;o)

It was great having Seth's parents stay at our place (they typically stay in Brighton, near Chrissy, so they can help with the kids), though they had to leave pretty early the next morning. Maybe on their next visit when they go for their walk they will be able to find the entrance to Prospect Hill!
