The kids were making noise upstairs though they are supposed to be in bed and heading towards sleep. Mr. Jenner went upstairs to see what was up. He came back down and said, "Senor Onion felt compelled to tell his sister that she had an appendix, and she objected to this truth." He has found a new way to annoy his sister. By telling her true things she doesn't want to hear. Well-played kid.
Today was a bbq that was a joint birthday celebration for my mother in law, and sister in law. (as their birthdays are yesterday and today.) Imagine a bunch of Jenners making a ton of food. Because that is what we did. An amusing moment was my Father in law bringing out some food to put on the grill, and my Mother in law said, "Does that have meat? Because that one is for vegetarian stuff." My Father in law said, "wel this sounds complicated. I can't do this. No one warned me."
"Well I am telling you now."
"oh but this seems a bit much."
So there was a five minute conversation about the complexities of putting veg things only on one grill, and meat things on the other.
It was a really gorgeous day out, and we dined alfresco. One more time before things turn grey. We sat out in the garden, the kids ran around in the park, later on we went in the pool for one last swim, and then we had the trifle and cake I made, along with some tea. It was just a good afternoon with everyone. A solid end to the summer holidays. Tomorrow everyone returns to school, work, and the routine.
Tonight I scrambled around making sure things had labels in them, and that everything is in place today. This week we might be organized. Everything after that is a crap shoot.
