Grandpa Tom



We were very very lucky to have a quick visit from Grandpa Tom this week. He was in Atlanta for meetings, and extended his trip to visit us. We all had a great time with him, and Abby was heart broken when we dropped him off at the airport.


Abby was super impressed that Grandpa sat down in the middle of the driveway to do chalk art with her.



Grandpa did "dad art" on the left, and Abby's self portrait is on the right.


We decided to take the kids to the aquarium. He is a brave man to go anywhere in public with these two! He was so fun and patient that we all had a great time. Grandpa wanted Abby to see everything up close. She loved the attention, and especially loved her Grandpa Tom!









Thanks for a great visit dad. We miss you all ready!

Oh, what a sweet post! How exciting your dad came to visit! My favorite picture is the one of him and Abby both pointing. What a special relationship to have with her grandpa! Your dad must be a wonderful man.

Grandpa Tom really is the best! Dad looks so happy in that picture of him with the two grand babies on his lap. I bet he loved coming to see them.
