I had a glorious weekend. The weather has been beautiful and I got to spend Saturday with my grandkids!! What more could I ask for?
When I arrived at The Captain's Table, at Fisherman's Wharf, in Punta Gorda... I was early and asked to be seated. Lauren had reserved a table for FOUR. Who else was coming?!! When they arrived, Lauren and Jeremy were behind grandson Tristan!!! He lives in New York City right now (though he is looking for a new job and location) but came "home" for a couple of weeks. I had no idea he was in Florida!! Happy Grandma here!!
Always a beautiful view...
The two-hour ride there and back again was uneventful. The weather was perfect for the drive. We had fun at the restaurant and Tristan picked up the tab for all of us. Bless him. We laughed a lot, showed pictures, and I heard about Lauren and Jeremy's skiing trip to Colorado in February. Lauren hadn't been skiing in years but quickly got back in the groove. Jeremy does snowboarding. Lauren shared this photo of them...
I went to Sunday school and church yesterday. Got home and did my laundry, and spot-vacuumed. I really don't know how my cats have any fur left on their bodies with the amount that I vacuum up every few days. Orange cats can shed!!
The week ahead is pretty chill for me. Nephew Jim and his wife Mary are coming on Friday for a visit. I hope they can stay overnight but haven't heard yet what their plans are. They are going to Disney for the week and coming by here when they check out of the resort over there. The last time they were here (before covid) they had their two kids with them. Now the kids are out of college and off on their own. Jim and Mary just moved to South Carolina from Maryland (retired!) so it is nice having family a little closer!
Wishing you a good week ahead!
You always snag a good table... Good memories of the restaurant... :)
ReplyDeleteHow wonderful to spend time with your dear grandkids (and Jeremy!) and now next weekend you'll get to see a nephew and wife! God has truly blessed you with good family and friends! Maybe Tristan will find a job closer to home? I know NYC can't be much fun these days! Praying all goes well for him and that God will lead him to the right place! I hope you have a wonderful week!
ReplyDeleteY'all made more happy memories. That's great. I hope your week is equally relaxing and you have lots more happy moments.
ReplyDeleteGreat blog background by the way! It's so cheerful.
Blessings. 🤗
What a wonderful weekend! I love how they surprised you with Tristan being there too.
ReplyDeleteLots of memories to tuck away. Glad they are both happy and doing well.
What a wonderful surprise!! I love that your grandkids want to meet you and that they pay :-). It sounds like you had a wonderful weekend!!
ReplyDeleteThey say it's their turn to spoil me. Love them so much!
DeleteYou know it seems that where you live is perfect for anyone coming to Florida for awhile. You are always having company. Your nephew is handsome and sweet.
ReplyDeleteYou are so very blessed, Terri, to have such beautiful and thoughtful grandchildren who adore you and love getting together when they can. Tristan is one handsome guy and Lauren is a beauty ! Her beau, Jeremy, is a looker, too! Glad you got to spend time with all of them this Saturday.
ReplyDeleteBlessings!
What a good visit with the grandkids! Such good young people to want to spend time with you AND to pick up the restaurant tab!!!
ReplyDeleteOh wow, I'd have loved to see your face when Tristan walked in! I love how they love you. I don't know that I'll ever get back, but that view of Charlotte Harbor just gives me all the 'feels.' I hope you have a great visit with Jim and Mary, however brief!
ReplyDeleteGlad you had a lovely weekend visiting grandchildren. Have a nice week🌷!
