Daughter Lise and I were thrilled that grandson Nathaniel and fiancee Sarah spent a day with us. I’m including the three hours it took to drive each way, and still they were generous with their time. They moved the old grandfather clock to the back bedroom to the only wall space left in the house.
Nathaniel treated us to lunch at the Sweet Onion, one of my favorite restaurants.
We walked a bit on Main Street in Waynesville, taking photos with the permanent musicians.
We ducked into several shops. In one, Nathaniel asked me what I liked most. I pointed to the child’s shopping cart, and he took it for a spin.
The biggest laugh came from sharing chocolate. Lise brought Sarah candy from Denmark, and Sarah insisted we had to taste it. Both Lise and I said no, because it was a gift to her. I relented, and said I’d share a piece with Lise. That candy was HARD! I tried to break it in half, and only a tiny shard fell off into her hand. Lise said, “Mom! We’ve got to have a picture of how generous you were, sharing the chocolate!”
Sarah and Nathaniel paid a lot of attention to Kacey. They suggested throwing a ball for her outside. Kacey ran and ran, something she hasn’t done for quite a while.
The dog was outside with us when they drove away. She whimpered pitifully as the car disappeared.
Needless to say, Lise and I enjoyed the couple as much as Kacey did. I’m glad they didn’t throw balls for me to fetch!

I am sure it was a wonderful time and enjoyed immensely. Kacey looks very pretty in that picture. Must say, Lise is quite the wit–I laughed when I saw her ‘share’ of the chocolate!
