A Fun Filled Day in Beautiful Monterey
Last Friday the children whisked Papa and Nanny away to spend some time together in Monterey. The weather was absolutely perfect. Papa couldn’t have asked for a better way to begin his day!
The getaway included many stops and adventures beginning with a stroll along the pier to sample clam chowder. From there we took a scenic drive to Lovers Point in Pacific Grove where the granddaughters had a giggled filled time playing in the surf. Papa and Nanny enjoyed watching the kids frolicking on the beach and in the waves, which provided many opportunities for soulful laughter. After the beach we drove along the coast to climb some crazy rocks with Tio Guero (or Uncle Ben). We remembered to take some pictures to help us remember just HOW crazy these rocks were! Finally, we wrapped up this special day at the Whole Enchilada for dinner.
We couldn’t have asked for a better day out and about with Papa and Nanny. The Lord truly blessed us to let us have another opportunity to be together. We will never forget the laughter and joy we experienced as a family. “The joy of the Lord is our strength.”

Thank you, thank you to those who are helping to keep the landscape around Papa and Nana's house healthly and green. You are doing a great job and it is VERY much appreciated.
An extra special thanks to Beatrice, our eldest granddaughter. She has taken it upon herself to keep our lawn mowed and in great shape. The lawn looks wonderful!
