Friday Fotos...

 


I have some new photos to share from my week...


This chandelier is in the entrance of the Hibachi Buffet where I met my friend, Kalisa, 
for lunch on Monday of this week.  We had a nice time!!

The next two are of our beautiful Lake Morton (the bird sanctuary).


Last night, the Mas Verde group met at Outback for dinner. There were 20 of us.  Bittersweet because many of the snowbirds will be leaving soon (including Jill & Murray).  Our Thursday dinner group will begin to dwindle down.  The only upside is that Jill & Murry (my neighbors, who sold their home) have found a place here in Mas Verde to rent next winter, so they will be back!!  I will miss them next door. They are dear, dear friends and have been wonderful neighbors.

We had a reservation, but the tables weren't ready yet
so we stood in the "lobby" for 15-20 minutes.

Judy, Jill (they are sisters), and me.  Dear friends!!

I took a picture from both ends of the table.  
The service was good and the food delicious!


And this couple, Bob & Mary, were celebrating their 55th wedding anniversary!  
They got a free dessert from Outback!

So, I need to make another Publix run after work today.  I am having Jill & Murray, Judy & Tim, and Susan & Chuck for dinner tomorrow.  I have most of what I need but there is always something...

Sunday, after church, we will be celebrating Helen's 94th birthday at Brookdale.  I'm either buying a cake or making one. Haven't decided yet. Another busy week is ahead but life is good.  Wishing you all a lovely weekend!! 

God's love is steadfast 
and unchanging!

    Blessings!

  6. Well, I'm grinning right back at all y'all! Breaking bread with friends is one of the best things in life. Sweet, learning your 'goodbye' to Jill and Murray turns out to be just a 'see you later'!

  7. What a wonderful bunch of pictures and story to go along. I love that you have so many lovely friends there at Mas Verde, and happy to hear that your Canadian neighbors will be back, just in a different house. Good friends will always be good friends no matter where they are. And you are amazing to be cooking another meal for another group. I don't know how you do it! And I am sure Helen will appreciate any kind of cake you can do. We always did cupcakes for Nanny in the nursing home because they were easier to serve and you didn't have to worry about forks, etc. Plus, because she usually was in the group dining room, we tried to have enough cupcakes for everyone. However, we also had a smaller private dining room where we could go with just our family, and so then we didn't have to bring so many cupcakes. No lit candles were allowed, of course. I hope you have a nice visit. Take care and enjoy everyone and everything. Yes, I love the chandelier too!

  8. You have such lovely friends. That is good to keep the mind busy. I can't get over how much better Mama's spirits are with the addition of the lady who likes to do stuff in the neighborhood. Oh Miss Helen will be 94--- that is good and hard at the same time. I think the mind has a much harder time staying fresh after about 92.
