I worked at the flower shop. That evening, April and Mike picked us up to go out and eat. We didn't know where we were going. The kids all surprised us at Matt's Steakhouse. We had a great meal and an evening visiting. Cash spent the night.

Saturday:
We were once again surprised by the kids by going to the river for the day. I love boat riding so this was a real treat. Chad ferried us all from Nagagomi Lodge to his camp site. It was a nice shaded spot a little elevated from the river. Chad brought toy tractors for Cash to play with. Chad would rake up sections of dirt for Cash to haul from. Iva had fun but the ground was a little rough for her walking. Todd barbecued and we ate lunch. Some played washers, others just relaxed in the peace of being around the river. It was Cash and Iva's first time riding in a boat. Cash wanted to spend the night again.
When it comes to bedtime, Cash is Nana's boy. Very tired after playing all day at the river.

We look so young in this picture. Actually, we were young at twenty years old. But we certainly thought we were old enough to get married. Guess so, as we've been married 40 years.
Cash had spent the night with us. We spent the morning on the front porch while Cash played. A very nice day out. Cash was missing Iva so he asked Grandpa to go pick her up. She also misses him when he's gone. I'm glad they're close like that. In the afternoon, we took Cash home. He was asleep not much longer than we left the house. He cried when we got to his house, he wanted to stay longer. We stayed for awhile watching the kids play outside.
We took one side road and wound up on the other side on Meta. The first part of the drive was nice but the last part was just scrub brush and runned down fields.
We went on into Rolla to eat a sandwhich and then home to watch movies.
What a great weekend we had.
I am grateful for Dwayne and the family we've created.
