chess, checkers and italiano

Today we're spending the day "at home" (Grandma-Great's home that is).

The birds are chirping, the flowers smell beautiful, perfectly relaxing.
 I love to see the smiles on the faces of my little ones as they chase butterflies and each other.
The girls planted various flowers in the garden and trimmed the mint.
Bam trimmed the hedges, moved heavy objects, cleaned and scrubbed the car plus he set up a perfect parking system in the garage for Grandma-Greats car.
The garden house is prepped and arranged, the summer home is being cleaned for a cookout and the outdoor garden table has been repainted. 
Stories of travel, adventure, accomplishments and goals were shared with Grandma-Great.
Plus games of chess, checkers, board games and computer games are enjoyed by all.

For lunch, we went to the local Italiano Restaurante Pizzeria in the village for calzones, soup and subs. The meal was fine but was in no comparison to the those served at Grandma-Greats-where the food is always super scrumptious and the company is ultra divine.

  1. Looks like everyone had fun in the Big Apple. I really enjoyed the pictures of NYC great photographer. I'd like to see Grand Central Sation as well. I always think of visiting it one day when I see it in movies. The view from atop the Rockerfeller Center was amazing. Did everyones ears pop as you were going up? Scary.
    I hope you ejoyed your adventures on your vacation. It was fun seeing it through your eyes. Thanks for a trip out to the East Coast. Be careful on your way home. See you when your back in New Mexico.
