President's Day Weekend

After a long week in Marietta (my grandmother passed away and funeral), my mom and sister (Roselle and Jodi) came to visit us this weekend! It was the first time JK did not make the trip with the rest of the family. Because of the bad weather forecast for the weekend, we decided to head to the beach on Saturday. Lunch at Coconut's and a couple of drinks made for a nice afternoon.

Saturday evening we met my cousin Billy who was in town with his family (wife, Laura and daughters Erika and Diana) from New York. We ate dinner at Disney's City Walk at Paradiso 37, a multi-cultural affair with a Latin American theme. Their strawberry margaritas were awesome!!!

Sunday took us to Winter Park and lunch at a new eatery that just opened, Prato - an upscale, open-air, Italian gastro pub. Lunch was delicious, and provided an idea for a possible family business (more to come later). Some shopping took place after lunch with everyone getting something to take home. Everyone's favorite purchase was the Peterbilt chocolate covered popcorn. It didn't last 24 hours.

It was good to have the family in town. We always have an extra room, come visit!
