Lake Buena Vista

No sewing yesterday. Thursday afternoon we (DH, grandson Micah and I) took off for Lake Buena Vista and got as far as eating at McDonald's, and then the rain came so we went home. We tried again yesterday, and it was a beautiful day, not even a sprinkle. We picked Micah up about 12:30 and took off. Yesterday, we ate at Burger King (very healthy couple of lunches) and then went on to Lake Buena Vista which is kind of like Disney's shopping village. You get a taste of Disney, but don't have to pay any admission. We walked around for awhile seeing the sights and then since DH feet were starting to hurt (he has arthritis), we decided to see a movie. I let the boys pick, so we saw a Batman movie, The Dark Knight. I have to admit it was pretty good, and I enjoyed it too. We also ate at Wolfgang Puck Express. Micah just had a brownie and drink, and DH and I tried the Butternut Squash soup. It was very good. We walked around a bit more and then headed home. Micah and DH play the same game, World of Warcraft, so he came with us and played while DH watched his Red Sox. I went to my sewing room, and Micah followed. He is a very astute young man, he asked if that was my place where I hang out!! I read my email with all intentions for finishing at least my 3 block goal, but was so tired that I laid down and went to sleep and slept until DH took Micah home and got back at 11:00. I watched a bit of the news and went back to sleep. What a wimp. Micah was a very well behaved gentleman, even opening doors and holding them for us. His mama says he does that for her, too.
Now, I'm off to put meatballs in the crockpot.

Isn't it great to have your grandson so close for special outings or just hang out. I love having Faith right down the road from us, as she says she can be at Granny's in 2 Minutes or less.YOur pictures are great. Have a good day. Hope we get to meet sometime in the near future or maybe after the holidays.
Blessings and hugs, Marie

I only wish I had grandchildren. I could take them home. My 4 are in elementary school and always want to go and do. I have to negotiate for sewing time.
