ISABELLE'S 17TH BIRTHDAY IN SLOVENIA!! (OPENING PRESENTS)
Drone shots. It’s Isabelle’s birthday. The girls and Jace hold Isabelle’s presents. Jace screeches that after they’ve sang happy birthday he’s going to come down and get the birthday cake
eat it and take it back up to Isabelle. Lazy and Creepstopher agree that he can do that. Jace heads up the stairs without holding the gate open for his sisters.
They enter the bedroom and start
singing shouting happy birthday. Isabelle is wearing her blue jumper. Over enthusiastic woohoo from Creepstopher. You can tell he is quite… excited. He tells her it’s her last non adult birthday.
That’s right Creepstopher, she’s a CHILD like most of the girls you try to groom are. Screeching from Jace as the girls hug. Jace steps on a present as he climbs over to hug Isabelle.
Oh well at least they’ll have a legitimate reason to send it back because it’s probably broken now.
Jace insists on opening a present. Lazy tells him no but Isabelle gives in and let’s him help.
He probably likes to open presents to see if there is any chocolate that he can run off with. He gets mixed messages from Lazy when she tells him to close his eyes for a surprise and it turns out to be something trivial like a bag of smarties, so he would naturally wonder if every surprise or present would be sweets. The first present is a squishmallow cat, which Jace tries to snatch. Isla chose the next present for Isabelle; an acorn soft toy. Jace once again snatches it. Jace opens the next present but it’s ASOS camo trousers so he isn’t interested and goes to open the next present. Lazy tells him to go and sit with her but he refuses. The trousers are a 12 when Isabelle is a 10. Lazy uses the excuse that with those types of trousers you never know.
Next up is beige ASOS trousers. Jace talks about the birthday cake again. Lazy can see the trousers are too big but it will be ok if they’re on the hips. Lazy ran out of wrapping paper on the next present. It’s clothes from Granny Jane. First is a gillet. The other day Creepstopher called it a gill-it intead of a gee-lay. He says he was mocking Isabelle. Jace is screeching again. The gillet will be great for the way home. Dr Creepstopher tells Isla your arms don’t keep much heat in. More trousers. Creepstopher says they look smaller on the waist.
Next present is Nike trainers. Lazy moans about the price. Next is a Crowley record player. Lazy says Isabelle is the clumsiest person ever. Jace goes over to investigate but Lazy tells him to be careful. She tells him not to touch. Isabelle has been after a record player for ages and Creepstopher can’t wait to hear it. Another reminder for Jace not to touch.
Lazy tells Isabelle to close her eyes. Esme brings over the basket of wrapped records. Lazy tells Jace not to touch. First it avinyl cleaning kit.
I bet Creepstopher will be all over that.
The record player will probably end up being his. First record is Girl in Red. Lazy didn’t know who half the artists were and looked like a plonker in HMV.
Babe you look like a plonker every day. Isabelle doesn’t know what genre Girl in Red is. Lazy bought a case in rose gold because she didn’t know which colour Isabelle would’ve preferred. She then saw the wicker basket and took the case back. When she got home Isabelle made a comment “ugh imagine having vinyls and storing them away”. Lazy was glad about her choice. Isabelle says you have to appreciate music. Next is the Harry Styles vinyl, the clip is blink and you’ll miss it but Isabelle is thrilled about it. Then it’s Lana Del Rey from Granny Jane and Hi Steve. Creepstopher wants a record player now. Next vinyl is The Neighbourhood. Creepstopher says the best was saved until last. Lazy cannot remember which ones Granny Jane and Hi Steve bought. Finally Isabelle gets Tell Me About Tomorrow. There is a video of Esme and Isla rapping to a song in the Maldives.
Creepstopher is setting up the record player for Isabelle. Lazy loves how retro it looks. He says it’s old technology. When Lazy was buying the vinyls from HMV the man told her the record player works the same as it did in the 70s. Nothing has changed and you should use the one in your Grandad’s loft. It’s cool to have. Creepstopher says they will buy one for the house.
Breakfast is manky looking spam and egg toasted sandwiches - Isabelle’s breakfast of dreams. Isabelle goes upstairs to do a try on haul of the trousers. She is out of breath from walking up the stairs. She’s wearing the camouflage trousers for the rest of the day. The trousers are soft inside. The black ones look a size too big. She isn’t trying the gillet on because the blue jumper won’t look good with it.
Lazy is putting Mila down for a nap. Creepstopher is outside escaping parenting duties as per, and admiring the view. It’s a lovely day and he hopes to get drone shots tonight. This is his best chance of getting a nice shot of the sunset. The silence is overwhelming and crazy beautiful. There is a lot to do where they are including a waterpark, Lovers Tower, and loads of other things to do. Isabelle wants to stay at the house and have a garden party. There is a restaurant in the village so they were going to go but Isabelle wants to stay at the house. They will do the restaurant tomorrow.
Creepstopher has nipped out for drinks. The plane was to watch an hour of the final episode of season 4 of Stranger Things. It’s 2 hours and a half long and Lazy’s night time is limited. Lazy put Mila to bed, distracted Jace, they sat down and watched the entire episode. Stranger Things is finished. Lazy didn’t expect to like it because monsters aren’t her thing (
even though she married one) but she recommends it. She recommends it to everyone. They have to wait 10 years for season 5.
Isabelle and Esme have come to look at the cows in the field. Lazy and Creepstopher are inside the house. Isabelle is looking at the view behind her, heard a moo, nearly fell off her chair and turned around to see a cow staring at her. Jace starts screeching about the cows. Isabelle wants to get the cows mooing. One does as she says that. Jace tells them to get off their house.
Lazy tries to get Mila to say cow. Mila starts hitting her with the fly “squatter”. She takes it from her and hits Mila They put a glass of apple juice outside for the wasps to stop them landing on their spam sandwiches.
The owner of the house said happy birthday to Isabelle and said she could pick fruit. They have run out of grapes so have come to pick them. Isabelle tells Isla to throw any mushy ones on the floor. Esme says the grapes are cute. She is wearing sliders. More shots of the view. Esme thinks the red grapes are blueberries. The man showed them how to pick the grapes.
Drone Shot of Lazy swinging Esme, Isla and Mila in the hammock. Shots of the view. Isabelle talks about the view again. Shot of the fire. Lazy says it’s perfect. She and Mila are playing with toys. The girls and Jace are in the hot tub. Creepstopher has gone to get the barbecue food. This is legitimately the most perfect place Lazy has been in her whole life. Creepstopher pours some wine.
Creepstopher sits on the floor in front of Isabelle. Mila starts to cry. Creepstopher is
cooking burning cheese. Mila cries again. Creepstopher rubs his hands on Isabelle's hair and face. Isabelle was eating a burger, looked down and wondered why it was white. She had sat and eaten two slabs of cheese. Isla had a halloumi burger. She likes the chill one and herb one. They have seen a shooting star and the stars are insane. Esme didn’t recognise someone from Twilight. Isla wanted to change her bedroom to Stranger Things but was put off when Lazy asked if she wanted a black and red bedroom. Lazy enjoyed Stranger Things because the girls did.
Creepstopher asks Jace if he’s ready. Lazy hands him the birthday cake and tells him to put two hands underneath. A tealight has been plonked in the middle. Jace blows it out so Lazy relights it. Another shouty rendition of Happy Birthday. Jace blows the candle out again. Lazy relights it and finally Isabelle blows it out. Isabelle pours wax over the cake.
