big girl pants, credit card, garden, grandsons, Kenora, Lac du Bonnet, memories, moments, one-on-one, purple, Red Lobster, widow

yesterday I had the great opportunity to spend one-on-one time with each of my grandsons… doesn’t happen that often, and rarely on the same day… great moments to savour…

first was with the youngest at the Fishing Hole where we talked all about a recent fishing trip and how he and daddy had caught a catfish… we also checked out the lures, looking for a nice purple one, lol…

after he and his parents had headed off to Lac du Bonnet for the weekend, spent time with the middle one as the two of us waited for him to be picked up to go to Kenora with a friend… we talked about bike riding, bunnies and watering the garden… we also discussed all the things he’s planning to do at his friend’s cottage… soon he’ll be able to come over on the bus for visits and to help me in the garden…

supper out with the oldest as he drove me home… he stayed in town as he is working over the weekend… we talked about rowing and car accidents and people who are difficult to deal with…

hard to believe that he is so grown up now… we had dinner at Red Lobster and enjoyed the treat… 

I was a bit nervous because I only had cash on me to pay for the meal so wanted to be sure we didn’t spend more than we had, lol…

I will be glad when I get the replacement credit card…

ended the day in the garden and took this shot as the solar lights were starting to twinkle on, one by one…

hibiscus, IKEA, kitchen, lobster, Red Lobster, shopping, slushy drink

went shopping at IKEA after work with Crystal and Jeff, to order their kitchen… it was very exciting… couldn’t believe how many people were there on a Tuesday night, but kitchens went on sale yesterday so there was a crowd…

to top it off, they paid with cash, which kind of shocked the young woman at the register… I do wonder how long it is going to be before places won’t accept cash… she had to call a supervisor to double count the money… after all that, she forgot to make change, lol… luckily Jeff remembered before we left…

then, to celebrate, we went out for dinner at Red Lobster…

20140708-212529-77129555.jpghad very nice slushy drinks, those amazing biscuits, and lobster… saved just enough to have for lunch tomorrow…

20140708-212916-77356594.jpgit was wonderful to have time together, without the little people…

when they dropped me off, I went out and got a few pictures of the hibiscus…
