A DAY AWAY

We didn't make it to the  beach last year,  and  I sure didn't think it would happen this year, but we did .....we had a day away......
 
What a blessing to have friends who are always there for us with love and support.   Thank you God for the best friends ever!!!      
Our son and his family rented a house for the week, so we had a place to hang out for the day.  

Spending the night away from home would be tooooo confusing for David and stressful for me. .  
David and our son
At the end of the day...... a rainbow.

And I say, "thank you God for a day away, and the blessing of friends, family and rainbows."

All of you look happy and healthy! Tell David he reminds me of Ernest Hemmingway by the sea.

Yes, have as normal a life as you can and enjoy each day. My husband has dementia (not diagnosed until August) and we need to do that. May the Lord continue to bless and keep you.

Hi Dolores! What wonderful pictures - THat is SO good of you and David! I would frame that and put it up somewhere that he can see it! What a nice day for you two - isn't the beach just the bestest ever place to go!
