Wonderful Weather and New Flavors - Day 11

Today we kicked off with another round of mini-golf.  This time we visited the Rainbow Falls course #1.  Both kids did great even with the higher temperatures this morning.  In the end, Bev and Tyler tied for the win.  Sammy and Tyler each shot a hole-in-one!


After we got finished up, we did Bible and made grilled cheese sandwiches for lunch.

We spent some time down this afternoon at the beach again... enjoying the waves and sand.  Gretchen and Dean came out with us to jump the waves.  After the ocean, we had fun in the sand making castles and playing in the tide pools.  It was great!



 

After we got cleaned up we decided to go out for dinner.  The Ademas really wanted us to try a local Greek restaurant, Mythos.  I'll be honest... I was pretty nervous!  The only way I agreed was knowing there was pepperoni pizza for the kids.  I looked over the menu and had NO IDEA what or how to order.  So I asked everyone at the table if I could just try a bite of everything they ordered... which they warmly agreed.  We started with a dipping plate... four dips (hummus, tirokafteri, tzatziki, and melitzanosalata) served with pita bread, meatballs, and falafel balls.  It was amazing.  That left me feeling confident so I tried everything... Roka, Pastisio, Orphanie, Politiki, Gigandes, Moussaka, Briam...  I loved it all!  I couldn't believe it!  The kids did awesome waiting at the restaurant as our meal lasted 1 1/2 hours.  Tyler even tried a few new things!

After dinner we came back to the condo for Uncle Roger's famous Banana's Foster.  We enjoyed sharing stories and lots of laughs.

After I got the kids tucked into their beds, Bev and I went out on the patio to relax a bit.  We stayed up til 1:00 am just sharing and catching up... it was wonderful!

Another fabulous day!   Thank you God!

Daddy's Last Night - Day 9

After we all finished our adventures, we came back to the condo for a little quiet time before supper.  We decided to go to Joe's Crab Shack with Uncle Roger and Aunt Gretchen.  After our meal, we wandered around Barefoot Landing and had some treats.


We headed home to get the kids in bed and spent some quality time talking with Rog and Gretch.

It was the perfect end to our big day and to Scott's time with us.  Tomorrow he will head home for work.  The kids and I have one more week with Miss Katie joining us.
