As part of the anniversary activities, all of the female relatives gathered for a luncheon on December 29th. There were three generations of descendants of our mother. Individual rings had been made for everyone, from our mother's wedding silver, as a surprise for all.The youngest generation were on their best behaviour, and looked askance as the older relatives got quite silly discussing the behaviour of the owls, who were also in attendance.
Once the ice was broken, and the waitress brought a dish of sliced lemons, the youngest ones took over.
We may think we invented silliness, but obviously we've passed it along to our children.
