Babette's Feast*

Filipe is such a sweetheart, same age as my eldest grandson. And three others who came to ours today. Sorry I cut off their hands, not much time to take photos today, this was a grab as they were leaving. Extras of the table almost laid, and some of the 18 of us who gathered.

Gratefuls:
- that everyone got here (and home) safely, and on time (minor miracle), and seemed to enjoy themselves
- that the food was appreciated and the activities all worked out well; lots of laughter and some tears
- Mike managing to rig up extra shade when the sun got too hot, and that it didn't rain
- that the washing up is done (bear in mind that we don't have a dishwasher) and the leftovers stored
