Seneca Park Zoo–the tourist version

Sunday started with church.  Lots of hugs and catching up with friends. 

We were some of the last to leave the building and we changed clothes for our zoo outing.  A quick stop for pizza.

The weather was extraordinarily warm for November.

Nan, Kelly and Barb came with us, and we met up with Nadine and Asher.
Nadine brought Ridge Donuts!

I know there were animals.  We saw them.  But mostly there was a lot of visiting.

Noshing with the ladies

Kelly had some gift cards for The Cheesecake Factory and she invited Nan, Barb, and I for lunch on Mother’s Day.

BUT – there was a two hour wait.  Oops.

So we went to Benucci’s.

It was a great choice.

We all split an Italian “Nachos” plate.

And it was so good – I ate so much I barely touched my Mediterranean salad.

It was dinner for a queen.  ♥

Camp Nan

While Mama, Marie, and Tab were at Flower City Work Camp, and Dad and the boys were going about their work/school routines, Johanna and Katriel spent lots of time at “Camp Nan” where Nan and Nene spoiled hosted them.

They even decorated eggs….

Sunday Dinner

While I’d like to claim I made a pot roast, mashed potatoes, asparagus and homemade bread, the truth is I enjoyed a wonderful Sunday dinner with some of my favorite people.

Delizioso!

1 Corinthians 8:8
But food does not bring us near to God; we are no worse if we do not eat, and no better if we do.
