Happy 12th Birthday

On Tuesday the Ada and Navi turned 12! Lucky for everyone the Veneto has turned orange zone, which means restaurants and bars can open (until 6pm). Walking home from school they met their dads and walked to lunch at the family's restaurant in town.

Navi is never excited when he has to go out to lunch straight from school. But the reservation was made and the dads wanted to support their Italian family.

Ada sometimes enjoys going out to lunch with her dads, but not always. This time she was for it.
Later that afternoon DaddyQuique asked the twins if they wanted to go out for cocktails & mocktails to celebrate their birthday (they are allowed inside bars here in Italy). They declined and instead played Minecraft. The dads did go out for a cocktail - or two.
The day before their birthday there was a discussion on what to eat for their 'birthday' dinner. Navi wanted tacos (American style, ground beef, hard shell tacos) and Ada wanted kebabs. They were left on their own to decide by coin toss.
Kebabs it was! But only because Ada ate Navi's vegetables that night in return for him to agree on kebabs. The coin toss did not happen.
DaddyQuique made their birthday cake and did not drop this one. Due to their separate weekend parties this dinner was simple.

But there were many gifts that arrived by mail last week from the US. Also, each kid went out and bought gifts for each other in town. Ada may have hinted or accompanied Navi on the gift she wanted, the backpack purse pictured.
