Karla's 21st

Usually there would be a lot more photo's, but this time around we were busy cooking and making sure everyone was happy, well fed and with a drink in-hand.

We had a great evening and enjoyed the party with mates, for which we are very thankful. Julle is oraait.

Toyota, Toyota, Toyota, Ford. There you have it, South African's prefer Toyota 4x4's...

Beer pong seems to be a standard "sport" at birthday parties these days.
Frank and I nearly beat Karla and Jens. Lost by a single cup.

Pretty cool paper decorations (you fold them open) from that
pricey party supplier store we call K-Mart.

Baking "begrafnis koekies" with the kids, and some Spur-sauce marinated, smoked (hickory) lamb riblets...

Another typical Sunday for the Van's this time of year. When it's mid-summer we tend not to do too much during the day, rather in the mornings and evenings. This morning we went to church, then went for a coffee and headed home. Karin and the kids bakes some South African cookies (Begrafnis Koekies) and then later in the evening (6pm) we baked some bread on the Weber Q and smoked some marinated lamb short-rib on the "real" Weber. As always, delicious ;-)

Mmmm! Some with coffee icing, some with peanut-butter icing...

Some of the left-over ribs...yeah, they were pretty darn tasty!
