……………………..On Sunday I went to my nephew and Godson Mathew’s home to celebrate his 47th birthday……..It’s funny how the age gap seems to be closer as the youngins’ get older!!!! It was a marvelous day!….We swam in his pool, and sat by the fire pit as the evening got cooler. the seasons are changing already and the days are getting noticeably shorter…..He cooked on the grill and it was all delicious…..This week he and Michele, his partner in life, are taking her youngest daughter to college in Florida to get her settled in [photo second in from top left]. They are now going to be official “empty nesters”…..We had a terrific time!
