On Friday night, Larry took me out to dinner. We shared a bottle of wine, chatted with a few new friends, then Chef came by to check on us and our lovely dinner.

Larry and I had a lot to talk about.

Earlier in the day, we had gone to the Dallas Arboretum for our Christmas photo shoot. It was quite a decision picking out this years picture for our greeting card! (but we did it)

Saturday found us day tripping to Austin. (I loved being captive in the car with Larry for hours) I am needlepointing a Christmas stocking for Jared and needed wool for the project. My favorite Needlepoint Shop is in Austin.

While in Austin, Larry and I met Rosemary’s (one of my favorite people in the world) Daughter for brunch. We went to a beautiful estate, had brunch while peacocks strolled around our table.

Brunch was in the garden…the food was perfect. Whitney, Rosemary’s daughter gave me roses and we visited for a couple of hours. The roses are special memories of the day.

On Sunday, (it was a very warm day) we did the chores that we avoided all weekend and decided that we had eaten such huge meals over the weekend and would go to the local dairy, sit at a booth and have little burgers, with salads and come home. It was exactly what we did.

Larry set up the sprinkler in the back garden. He came in and I snuggled into his arms. We watched one of our favorite Neil Simon plays/movies. (we have seen this play and movie many times. It is a production that Larry truly laughs out loud at.) This is one of our “comfort movies”…….

So. Another weekend for the books. I enjoyed this weekend very much. We kept busy and positive. The one thing wrong with a weekend like this one past…. It is a huge let down when it is over.

Love you beyond the stars and moon.
