Time to Celebrate


 We were very excited to have Sinead and Ceara's visit to Canada coincide with Keith's birthday.  What a treat to have our dear friends around the table with us!
 We had a delicious steak dinner with all the trimmings.  I don't even think you can see my asparagus hiding under my salad.  After not having beef for a month while Daisy was here, that piece o'cow tasted divine.

 Somehow Ceara and Nate are back to cleaning the kitchen just like they were 5 years ago!
 I made Keith a guinness chocolate cake wtih salted caramel glaze.  

The kids played a little bocci after supper.  The evening was so very warm!
 Ahhh...the whole gang.  We certainly missed Darryl, Clodagh and Emma!


 Liam got to bed very late that evening and had a treat with Ceara reading him his bedtime story.
 Even though the hour was late we just had to have a dip in the hot tub.  


It was a great night!
