Happy Birthday Justin

Happy Birthday Justin Last night we hosted a fun party to celebrate Justin’s 40th. He has such nice friends and it was really fun to barbeque with them all. Thank goodness the rains held off because we really had no plan B if the 50 guests could not hang outside on the patio. In honor of his birthday, I created an ELDER drink, featuring Elderflower Liquor. Then I also had our favorite cocktails (recipes below). Highlights of the party included Laurel and Andrea’s ukulele concert and Dave’s guitar session. Thank you to all who spent their Saturday night celebrating with us.
