We got to take Grandma out to dinner on Tuesday night! She is such a great person. She is 90 years old but her memory is amazing and she is full of knowledge and wisdom and memories. She wanted to go to OUTBACK to get the rack of lamb with mint green jelly! I love it. I love that she knew exactly what she was craving and we made it happen. We got Sean to watch all of the kids so it was a quiet adult meal which we don’t get often.

A few words of wisdom from this trip:

She told us about the advice she got from her mom when she was raising her family and complaining about leaving a sink full of dishes every night to run off to baseball games… Her mom said to leave the dishes and enjoy the games. Soon enough you will have time to do as many dishes as you want. She said it has been a good reminder to live in the moment and enjoy the present stage of life.

She said one of her motto’s is to not worry. If something is going to happen  you’ll have plenty of time to worry about it then and figure it out but it doesn’t do any good to worry about it before it even happens.

 

The night before that we had family over for a family night with grandma!
