Peterbird's Nameday

We had a wonderful time, having an open house on the feast of Saints Peter and Paul.

I had great fun going to the store the day before and getting all the jams, jellies, and preserves I could (and one honey) which were new or strange to me. To our mutual delight, Peterbird likes them: ginger preserves; damson plum jam; boysenberry seedless jam; rosemary and lavender honey; and pineapple, banana & passion fruit fruit spread. He also got a bath pillow, which, I think, is not as exciting because it is not as edible.

There were actually more people, but when the triplets and then the brothers came over (5 children age 5 and younger, and rambunctiously so), it was easy enough to forget the camera. Fortunately, I was able to take pictures (and a few videos) of Dn. Achilles' family who left campus today for St. Louis. (I guess to St. Nicholas there, since it's the only Greek Archdiocese one listed from their page.)
