dog days

There is nothing better on a hot August day

 than floating around in the condo pool

 with a couple of your grandkiddos.

The sun was scorching hot but

the water was cool and refreshing.

We kept Lucy and Walt for a few days last week

 so that Erika and David could take a little getaway.

The other 3 boys went to stay at a friend's house.

We packed our time with lots of fun.

Lu and I went to see Toy Story 4.

We loved it!

So well done!

On Wednesday evening Granddaddy took us out to eat at

Pearl's Saltwater Grill.

What a treat!

Probably my all time favorite restaurant in Savannah.

The hushpuppies smothered in honey butter are divine.

We left there with huge smiles on our faces.

Saturday we had a brunch at David and Erika's house to honor Archie.

We have now officially had him longer than he was in the orphanage in China.

He invited some friends and picked the menu...

The breakfast casserole we have on Christmas morning,

Fresh sliced fruit,

Blueberry muffins made by Lucy,

and a big box of doughnuts from Baker's Pride.

Needless to say, a great time was had by all participants.

School starts tomorrow for these kids and Eli too.

Jake has another week before he goes back.

It has been a wonderful, exciting, carefree summer but,

all good things must come to an end.

Time to stuff their little heads with lots of knowledge

and the good times which being in school bring.

May God bless and keep every single one of you in

His perfect plan.
