  2. That scone looks delish! I'll pass on the latte, though. I love that sunrise ... I do believe that sunrises and sunsets are some of God's most beautiful handiwork! And I cannot wait to see palm trees ... 5 more weeks! ;-)

  3. Beautiful sunrise, I have to admit I see more sunsets than sunrises. I'm thankful God put one at each end of the day. Looks like fun times with the grandkids, thanks for sharing...

  6. I don't like going to bed with my tummy full, either. I've learned eating earlier in the evening makes me feel better. Actually, I prefer skipping dinner when I can. That's not often lately, though, as I've been making to tasty meals to pass on not trying. :( This weekend, I'll be heating soup for my DH because he had implant surgery so maybe this will discourage me. lol Have a great weekend!

  8. Seems as if you had a good week. The breakfast with the scones and coffee would have made my week but then you had the fun time with the grands which really made your week great. They are very cute kiddos. Have a great weekend, too.-----
