Labor Day - Xaviers (X-Men and X-Force)
The air was warm and the sun was bright making it a perfect day for a cookout to celebrate Labor Day. Classes would start on the 7th (for those going to college they started a week ago) and it was the last chance to kick back and cut loose before hitting the books.

At Xavier's Institute For Higher Learning tables had been placed out around the pool and the large grill fired up. Burgers, hot dogs, sausage, ribs, corn on the cob, pasta salad, salad and fruit salad were just some of the food available to eat. Soda, water, fruit juice and other beverages were on ice.

It was a day of rest and relaxations for those who put their lives on the line for others.

Lucas was up at dawn doing his normal rituals of greeting the sun, but also bidding the Summer farewell and welcoming the harvest season. After that, he set himself to making preparations for the day, helping set up for the cooking, but also doing some of his own. He's built his own smoker from clays, and wrapped corn and fish in more clay, burying it under his firepit to cook under the coals he's cooking the meats over. And, of course, he's made sure to do some baking as well - sugar cookies for most of the classes, and oat cakes with extra honey for the Hrimharisdottirs.

Gabriel wasn't accustomed to this particular holiday, but he joined in on the festivities anyway. He had a baby monitor in Connor's room and one clipped to his belt. That way, while he was grilling, he could know when Connor got to waking up. Otherwise, Gabriel was free to stretch his wings and work at the grill.

	Leave it to the Hrimharisdottirs not to follow the Midgard calendar properly; Moira and been helping Danielle study a lot lately. A lot. So out today, she has no truck with holding still and is moving about everywhere. But she'll definitely slow down enough to kiss Lucas. "They're delicious." (Reply to this)(Parent)
