Visit to Clymer

It's been awhile since we have updated everyone on what we are up to - life just gets so busy sometimes!

The weekend of May 21-23 Jeff and I headed to Clymer to visit with his family.  We had a wonderful weekend relaxing and visiting with everyone.

When we got there on Friday evening, we met Jeff's parents at the French Creek Tavern for some wonderful food.  Jeff and I decided to stray away from our usual of wings and criss cross fries and instead we ordered chicken wraps and kept the criss cross fries.  The food was delicious as usual!  That night Jeff and I watched Father of the Bride since I have never seen it before.  It is an amazing movie!  I can't believe I had been missing out on that for so long!  Now we just have to see the second one!

Saturday morning we got up early and had breakfast with Jeff's parents and his grandparents.  We were so happy to see his grandpa was able to make it to breakfast after his recent heart bypass surgery!  He seemed to be doing well.  Food at the Dutch Village was amazing as usual!  During the day Jeff and I relaxed on the couch and watched Smokey and the Bandit - a movie I had never seen!  We watched two of the three in the series.  I had to say, they were quite entertaining. That evening we headed to Jeff's sister's house.  Jeff's nephew Tate was quite the entertainer before he went to bed - he had us all laughing!  We played "Battle of the Sexes" with Kristy, Pat and some of their friends.  We had a great time - and the girls won the game of course!

On Sunday the guys went golfing at the upper course at The Peak.  While they were out having fun, Jeff's mom and I met up with his sister and nephew Tate for some breakfast at the Rowdy Rooster.  Before we left, Tate asked me when I would be back and I told him I wasn't sure, but hopefully sometime soon.  The little guy then broke my heart when he replied, "YOU NEVER SHOW UP!"  I was heart broken, but he still gave me a hug goodbye!

After that, Jeff's mom and I headed into Jamestown to pick out a quilt for Jeff's room.  His parents are re-painting a few rooms in the house and they needed a new quilt for Jeff's room to match the new paint.  We found a beautiful one.  Here is a picture!


The weekend seemed to fly by!  Before we knew it, Sunday had arrived and we had to head back home.  Before heading home, Jeff's mom and I looked through some scrapbooks and then Jeff and I went with his parents to a restaurant called "The Casino" on the Chataqua lake.  Jeff and I stepped outside of our normal comfort foods and tried something a little new.  Jeff had a chicken artichoke sandwhich and I had a Greek wrap.  Jeff's dad thought I was copying him because he and I ordered the same thing, but I ordered mine a little different than his so I wasn't completely copying him!  :-)  It was a beautiful summer day so we were able to sit outside on the deck!

We had such a great weekend in Clymer!  Can't wait to go back!
