What a great weekend... thanks kids and grandkids... many times over... thanks....

My my my… what an almost perfect weekend!! Ann and I are fast being to love Grandparents Day in a way we have never appreciated it before!

It started Friday with lunch with Andrew Paul at his school, which we enjoyed very much. We did not get to make Austyn’s because we thought they ate at the same time, but found out later they don’t, but they are in schools that are cross town and there was only thirty minutes between lunch periods. Great Grandma Moffat ate with Austyn so he did have some of his Grand’s there... and she is way more important!

Then Friday, after a quick call to Jon to see when they were coming up … and discovered they were not (could be that Dad misunderstood the message last weekend… ha-ha) we confirmed to Heather we would watch the kiddos… on Saturday, which we did. Her and Paul had an engagement Saturday evening, and needed someone.. so of course, Mom and I stepped in GLADLY and watched the kids… and JAKE too…

On Sunday, Heather and the kiddos came over for lunch… and we had a great lunch… Ann made steamed pork chops, mashed potatoes and her famous gravy… and much more…. Then…. We ended up with a surprise dinner at the Phil Moffat Restaurant on Fairgrounds Road. It is a fairly new establishment, with Mr. Austyn Moffat serving as Head waiter, Tammy as head chef and the owner, Phillip Moffat. We were greeted in the rain at the door… and escorted into the waiting room where we were handed a menu and our orders were taken… Then after watching Austyn and Tammy play dominos and Austyn winning… we were seated and enjoyed a totally tremendous meal… see the photo of the menu…. And then after our great meal, we were presented with a very special orange certificate of appreciation for grandparents… IT WAS AWESOME!!!!!!!!
Thanks guys…..

And thanks to every one for the cards, calls, thoughts, etc… and for making “our” weekend so very special!!!
