J's 18th!

Yes, amazingly, in just under half an hour J will be an adult! I am saying what parents always seem to say: 'Where did the time go?!' We had a super day today: he wanted a family meal out so the five of us, plus his girlfriend S, my sister, her husband and daughter and N's parents all went to a local pub,The Fox and Hounds, and had dinner. The recent cold gave way in a very timely fashion to glorious warm sunshine and plenty of photo opportunities. We supplied a cake in the shape of a football pitch with a candle which unexpectedly played 'Happy Birthday' loud and long until J skewered it with a fork and restored peace. After the meal we came back home and the younger ones sunned themselves on the trampoline, we made a start on the football pitch and my sister took some group shots. Lovely day - and tomorrow is The Big One. The table is covered in balloons, cards and presents as we always open presents over a breakfast of croissants. Now it;s time I stacked the dishwasher and took off today's make-up before giving him a 'last hug before you're an adult'! Of course tomorrow I can give him another for being grown up! |
