Happy Mother's Day

We took Lola & Bob to Davinci's Restaurant in Milwaukie for Mother's Day dinner. This restaurant is one of our favorites. It was very busy but we went early enough that we got in without a reservation. Lola had a chicken linguine and Bob enjoyed a scampi dish (he likes shrimp.) They also shared (and enjoyed) a lemon cake for dessert! After dinner, we went visited a short time with my parents.

Senior Moments

Last week Barbara visited from Reno. They visited with Kim and some of her kids on Monday. Paige and Nathan were in school.

Tuesday evening before we took Barbara to the airport, we went to Red Robin for dinner. Rj and I picked the three of them up at the same time dropping off a couple of hanging basket planters (an early Mother's Day gift for Lola). Bob and Lola had some issues in the back seat:

Bob: Would you help me instead of just sitting there.

Lola: Move your fingers.

Bob: (breathing hard)

Lola: Put your hands in your lap. You're sittin' on it.

Bob: Just put it straight in. There.

Lola: You've got it in the wrong spot. You're chokin' me!

Bob: Laughing hard and breathing even harder.

I turn around and see this:

Yes . . . . they were having trouble with the seatbelts . . . what did you think? Barbara, the entire time, is just laughing. We were half way to the restaurant (Red Robin at Mall 205) before they were properly hooked up.

We get to the restaurant and Bob is excited to see a TV in his line of view . . . he watches the NBA playoffs. Bob & Lola decide (as they usually do) to order one item and share it. He says "What should I order?" (something he always asks.) Then he suggests to Lola a Bleu Ribbon Burger. Lola says okay. I ask Bob if he likes bleu cheese. He says "No." I tell him that's what the burger has on it. He picks a Roast Beef Burger instead. Good choice, Bob.
