back-blip (agh behind on my blipping again)

We have had a brilliant day today. Predictable early rise from Amelie, especially difficult after a disturbed night sleep thanks to Master Morgan. I didn't give him calpol last night and think its teeth related. Anyway it wasn't long before we got the BBQ lit and started cooking. I say we, I mean Donald. His very first BBQ at his first house. He had banned Laura from having a BBQ until he was home to share it. So it was a somewhat momentous occasion. We mooched around and ate quite a bit, had a few drinks. Amelie danced with everybody, Isaac enjoyed some corn on the cob (although it was so big he needed help to hold it), we had wheelbarrow races (for some reason) and Donald got Nina to do some tricks. Here she is giving him a high five. Clever dog! She did quite a bit of posing for me today, and quite a bit of this. We sat outside until it started to rain through the gazebo (sad times) then we moved in, bathed and settled the children then re lit the BBQ for steak pittas for dinner. We were going to play a game but Isaac was really unsettled so I took him upstairs for an early night and joined him and everybody else soon followed.
