Family Time
We just returned from a visit with two of our daughters. Kim arrived in town today and we met her at her hotel. Athena, like us, lives here. She met us in Kim's room and the four of us had a wonderful caught up on each other's lives.
I had just returned from an outing with the Red Hat Society and was still wearing my purple outfit and large red hat. Athena was on her way to a friend's birthday party and was dressed in black leather pants, a red top with a black spider web lace, see-through pullover on top of the top. She also had the accessories to make the outfit truly stunning. Heads were turning when we left the hotel to go home.
Kim and Richard were casually dressed... like normal people. They didn't turn any heads... but I doubt they really wanted to.
We made arrangements to spend quite a bit of time together all week. It's been a while since we've spent much time with Kim. And even though Athena and Brian live in the area, we don't get together all that often. Life sometimes gets too busy. Time sometimes passes too quickly. So, I am really looking forward to sharing this family time.
As I mentioned. I went out with the ladies of the crimson hat persuasion today. We went to a theatrical production of Cheaper by the Dozen at the Osceola Center for the Arts. I was pleasantly surprised at the professional level of the performances, the setting and the entire production. I will most certainly attend future plays there!
After the play, we descended on Chili's in St. Cloud. Notwithstanding two previous phone calls from our Queen Mother, they were not prepared for our group. It was busy for a weekday afternoon, but the manager came on the scene and made things happen fast. In no time, they had moved tables and chairs and had us happily seated, thereupon providing us with perhaps the best service I have ever received in a like establishment. The food was great as expected, but the service was outstanding. I will absolutely drive out of my way to go there again.
So, I've had a splendid day and praise God for every minute of it. I got no work done, but then I really hadn't expected to.
