memorial day

we were comfortable enough with the deck to have Jack & Rebecca with the kids over on Monday. David came too, and we bar-b-qued chicken, burgers & dogs. hege made a perfect potato salad, and david brought a beautiful mixed green salad with mango dressing. it was hot and sunny, so hennie and i started the day by making mango ice-cream, which was ready right on time for dessert, with fresh blackberries, blueberries, strawberries & banannas poured over the top. the girls swam most of the day in a kiddie pool and the adults, with our beverages, actually got to sit on the deck and talk like teenagers.

it was a great day.
