had my youngest grandson over for dinner last night…

had to think for a while to decide on what to make as the oven is still not working, lol…

decided on spaghetti with meatballs and sauce… while I was making the meatballs, I was remembering doing that with my dad… he made great ones and they were very small… and they never fell apart, lol…

mine came out okay, but a few of them did seem to disintegrate… I used the broiler, which is still working, to warm up the garlic bread…

my grandson is on a moneymaking kick as there is a big school trip planned for next year, so he did some shovelling for me in the garden… the plan was to move the snow around that was in the mountain at the edge of the deck… he did a good job;-)…

hopefully this will help in the melting process…

my youngest grandson and I spent a few days together… it was lovely as we don’t get to spend the amount of one-on-one time that I have with the other boys…

we did a few chores around the garden and spent a great amount of time with the monarch butterflies…

we planned meals, watched the fish, birds and squirrels, and talked about life… he was even happy to take a selfie with me;-)…

we made stuffing muffins (chicken stuffing put into muffin pans), one of his favourites, lol… we had chicken and mashed potatoes for our supper to go along with the muffins… we made twice stuffed potatoes for our second supper and he reminded me to put in green onions as he likes the flavour they add to food now…

we watched the space station fly over from the hot tub…

we slept out on the decks… he thought it was a very funny thing to do, but got right into it, bringing out his comforter, a blanket and pillows;-)… I slept in the gravity chair, which wasn’t as comfortable as the lounger I normally use…

he played games with his friends on his phone and watched tv shows when it was too hot (and maybe boring) for him outside…

how wonderful it was for me to have these special moments with this young man;-)…

up early and the youngest and I went for an early breakfast… he is usually the first up in their family so was excited for us to go down to eat together…

spent an hour in the pool area… the boys really enjoyed their final trips down the slide…

packed up our bags, checked out and headed to the first game…

it ended up being the last game for the team… they finished the tournament in 5th place… our guy had some great serves and volleys… so proud of the entire team… they have come a long way over the four years that I’ve been watching them play…

we watched one of the girls’ semi finals and then began our trip home…

another beautiful drive on a sunshiny day…
