Last weekend before ‘La Rentrée”



The last weekend before school began! And the weather was good too (FINALLY!) – it was a nice hot day (well on Saturday at least), it went up to 30 degrees, not a single cloud in the sky. We were terribly pleased to be able to spend such a gorgeous day ‘celebrating’ (commiserating perhaps LOL???) our last day of the summer break, with the Molas’ again. Why not, we’ve always have such wonderful time with them and BBQs are just so yummy with them. I managed to whip up another pot of chilli the night before, just in time for lunch. While I got the food ready, Daddy was busy cleaning and filling up the pool, much to delight of Bibou. She just wouldn’t wait to get into the pool! So quickly, she went to change into her bikini. And came running down to jump into the pool… as she splashed around, I noticed something, she’s got curves! My girlies’ got curves already. And I also love her tight ‘6 pack’ stomach and smooth bottom. That gal certainly doesn’t have my genes :) (definitely don’t have a 6 pack stomach – well, if it is there, it’s hiding, nor smooth butt, not now, not ever! I was always a cubby child). I’m envious of her great body! OKAY.. Focus girl :)…. Yes, as I was saying, Bibou went splashing in the (very cold!) water, waiting for her good friends to arrive… and when they did, the twins jumped right in. After lunch, K and I just laid out on our deck chairs, Daddies strumming and practicing on their guitars, Angel snoozing in her crib for her nap and the 3 kids having fun wherever. What bliss! The thought of returning to work / school still far away in our minds. After dinner, we had to say a sad goodbye to our good friends.

However, we weren’t lonely for long. The next day, we had the Ls over for lunch and Kathl
een came over for tea. Though the weather wasn’t as nice as the day before (cloudy and threatening of rain), it was still ok enough to have a BBQ (and the kids still wanted to brave the water). Great food, company, and music. Bibou, as always, wanted to dress up in her 'princess' outfit, a new dress that I'd gotten for her, together with her tiara, so off she went to 'dress up'. This girl is just soooo into looking like a princess. I've caught her many times now, applying lip gloss and preening herself in front of the mirror! Oy! Anyway, so the kids played about, jumped in and out of the pool and just tired themselves out with fun. What a perfect day to end our summer break.
