off and away

We went to my in-laws this weekend to pick up Steve. He had driven the little car down to S and they very graciously picked him up from the airport on Friday. Saturday the girls, Tobi and I went to visit and to retrieve him.

It was a short visit but very nice, hanging out watching movies together, reading, chatting, very low key. This morning we went out to brunch to celebrate my father-in-law's upcoming birthday, V's birthday and D's upcoming birthday. Lots of birthday love and enjoyment at the table.

The place where we went is a really fabulous buffet brunch loaded with seafood, eggs done three different ways, steak, fresh waffles, fresh donuts, pancakes, crepes, many salads, several soups, and a dessert bar that is just sinful. We all enjoyed the meal, came home and went for a walk in a vain attempt to walk off some of the calories. Tobi, who had not been to the restaurant (in case you were wondering) was very happy to go for a walk.

The weather has turned and it feels like spring!!! As we walked we saw small bulb greens pushing their way through the soil. Birds were chirping and the wind was gently wisping by. Spring is in the air!
