A special day with Dad

Today was a big day.  Father turned 88, and after much deliberation we decided the best celebration would be a family lunch at the family home, in old, familiar, much loved surroundings where Mom could join us in spirit - and she did.  I deboned and stuffed two legs of free range Karoo lamb (her favourite) and close family attended.  A really special time was had and it was a good choice to have it at home where everyone could be comfortable and still indulge in the family habit of all talking at the same time about three different things and interjecting at appropriate times in all three discussions! Does your family also do that?  Makes things quite loud at times but keeps us awake and on our toes!
