Visit with Grandma Pauline

KC's Grandma Pauline had hip surgery in June, and KC's mom came to stay for a week- so we made the trip down to see them.  (We probably should have been unpacking boxes, but that can wait for another time!)  Jake's back had been bothering him last week, but he was able to make the 2.5 hour drive down to Cape Coral.

Grandma Pauline's recovery was amazing.  She was up and moving around already.  We were able to catch up, and have some good conversations.  For dinner, we grilled steaks on a gas grill- something we haven't done since we were in MN!   They were delicious (as was the cheese sauce KC's mom made to go with it).

Saturday night Grandma Pauline went to bed early, and we went for a swim in her pool.  Then, KC's mom cut her hair to fix a botched job from rushing in to an unknown Great Clips for a trim.  It's a lot better now!  We also spent time reviewing genealogy information on KC's grandpa's side.  The information goes back seven generations!

Lovely outdoor living area

Sunday we ate breakfast, read the newspaper in English, and chatted.  It was so nice to see Grandma Pauline, KC's mom and Bella.



Sorry Grandma Pauline- I couldn't take out your compression stockings- that would have cut out Bella! 

This bridge is something we'll never get used to on our trips to Cape Coral- it's a free roller coaster ride on our drive! ;)
