What a wild and fun week!

and its not over yet!

The week started last Sat. with a day in Deland with our friends on the motorcycle as it is bike week here in Daytona!  From there, Sunday started with a visit from my friend Patty who was visiting from Seattle.  Patty was with me from Sunday until Wednesday.  On Monday, I had a trip to the doctor for a cortisone shot in my ankle and I had a reaction to that which put me out of commission until Wednesday.  Just in time for Patty to leave!

Thursday was a good day for my ankle AND for more friends to come visit.  This time it was Carmen and Gordon from Canada!  We met these two great people on a trip to Italy in May '09 and we have kept in touch since!  On Friday, we drove to Tampa which is directly across the state from us, about 2.45 hours to be exact, to meet up with another couple who we met in Italy and who have become dear friends to us.  They live in Port Charlotte, FL., which by coincidence is where my father lived so it really worked out well for visits and such!  Anyway, it was great being together with everyone even if it was only for lunch.
It is now Saturday morning and Carmen and Gordon have left for home.

But its not over!  Tonight I am having some very special friends over for dinner....none other than Stephanie and her family are coming to my house for dinner tonight!  I cannot wait!  We will be sure to take some pics!

I am off to the gym and than I have some cooking to do!
