A Sabering (but not Sobering) Success...

Elena & Michael came to stay with us this weekend, with the promise of a repeat performance on our 'saber episode' inflicted on a bottle of bubbles. Michael has done this quite a number of times in the past, we'd been told, and we were assured that the gifted bottle of nice champagne wouldn't go to waste... ...so in honor of Louis' 50th birthday last month, we were treated to another go round, & once again found ourselves playing on the porch with Jared's machete. This time, mission accomplished!...under Michael's a steamed tutelage. The kids even got in on the act, with a bottle of Italian soda. :o)
