charlie loves to set a table.

especially for a special occasion.

he has free reign.

he roots through the table clothes,

glasses,

dishes,

& napkins to see what will work.

can take up to a 1/2 hour.

finished product is always worth the wait.

kind of a tradition.

pose on or around every statue on the walk home from dinner.

i drive has a ton of them.

they climb up.

do their best to hang on.

adds about 10 minutes onto the walk.

so worth the memories.

p.s....

DSC_4539
this is the face of a tired boy...

who couldn't wait to pack his suesscase

and swim at the pool at the ho-towel in orlando.

at this point he had missed two naps,

stayed up until 11pm,

bit his tongue

& wanted his bed.

trooper.
