TBT-  A few weeks ago Gary, Chris and I had a sleepover with the grandchildren at the Embassy Suite Hotel so Stacy and John could enjoy their yearly ugly Christmas sweater party.

We have stayed there several times and we all love the place...

 It is spacious with a living room, kitchen and bedroom.  Gary had a bed and Addie and I shared a bed and Connor was very happy to sleep on the big comfortable chair...Chris had his own room.

Connor picked the Longhorn Steakhouse for dinner and Chris navigated us there...

Addie ordered mac and cheese with fruit - she didn't eat a bite!
We had had a large lunch and celebrated Christmas earlier.

Chris' selfie with his dad...

Connor's dinner order...

chicken tenders with fruit...
he ate every bite

plus he ordered a strawberry smoothie as an appetizer 

We enjoyed a movie back at the hotel...

A customer gave us some Honey Bell oranges...

i added one in my salad

Of course Gary saved the seeds...

after he googled them and found out it can take up to 13 years for a tree to grow from seed to produce fruit
he decided maybe he would just put them in the compost pile

Grass-fed beef from Florida...

Gary grew up on a 7,000 acre cattle ranch near Ocala back in the 50's
all their cattle were pasture raised
and ate plenty of grass
