~~~~~~~~~~~ She's quite the traveler at 6 days old

5 Generations

We had such a fun day gathering up the generations of Grandparents and heading to Adams MN with Brianna and Chris to let Audrey meet the patriarch...her Great-Great Grandpa Neil. He has been in the nursing home for several months and it was definatly time for a visit. It was soooo neat to see the sparkle in his eyes when he saw her. He couldnt keep his eyes off her.
He had such a forlorn expression on his face as we left, and he asked that we bring her back before she "gets all big".......
.......like his Great-grandaughter Brianna

  3. That is so cool that you have both those pics. I don't think I'd ever seen the one of me and him, so cool. I'm glad we could all be there and make it happen.
