So, I didn't mean to leave you hanging in the last post, but things were really busy around here last weekend. On Saturday, Bill and I were heading up to Saratoga for a patient appreciation event for the practice and Madelyn was off to spend a fun filled weekend with her Hamma and Grandpa Mernon. (Grandma Vickie & Grandpa Merritt). Mom & Merritt were so excited to have both of their grandchildren for the weekend, Madelyn and Baby Carter. (Kelly & Tyler's
Baby) So, as usual... Mom, Bill, Maddy and I met at the half way point, to do the official transfer of goods. The goods are Maddy and all of her stuff, no dogs this time :) It is really very funny, Maddy thinks that Hamma lives at the gas station in Scoharie, since we usually always meet there. After dropping Maddy, Bill and I headed back towards Saratoga, we had a really nice lunch at a favorite diner of ours, Gibby's in Duanesburg, in case you are ever stopping through. It is truly comfort food at it's finest. The accept cash and personal checks as payment, if that gives you any idea of the type of place it is. After lunch, we headed to the Saratoga Hilton for the beginning of our patient appreciation event. We invited 25 patients and their guests to attend a motivational health talk by Dr. Guy Reikemen. Dr. Guy is the current president of the largest Chiropractic College in the country. He is a great speaker with an amazing life story. So, we spent 3 hours at the event with our patients and I think they all enjoyed the evening. After the event, Bill and I bundled up and took a leisurely walk through Saratoga. It really brought back memories of our college days. We sat down at 11:30 at night and ate chinese food and then went to a small french restaurant and sat and had a couple glasses of wine and chatted until 3 o' clock in the morning. It was so much fun and we were so grateful to have the time to reconnect. The next morning, we slept in (ahhhhh ) went out for a big breakfast and then headed home. We were greeted at home by Hamma and Maddy. Hamma was nice enough to drive Maddy all the way back to our house and even bring dinner. Of course, Maddy had so much fun with Hamma. They baked cookies, made a stuffed boy for our front porch (look at the pictures and you'll understand), they caught fish in the pond, went in the hot tub, played with Lily (Hamma's big fat cat) and of course Maddy had fun playing with baby Carter. It was a great weekend for all of us and looking forward to next weekend. We are excited about Halloween and can't wait for the Michael W Smith/Steven Curtis Chapman concert. Should be another great weekend....
