TWINS!!!!

Twins!!!  Corey and Danielle are going to have twins.  That means that my beautiful, happy, loving grandson, Zachary, is going to be a big brother times two.  Zachary will be a good big brother.  He’s a real sweetheart and I’m excited to meet his new siblings.  Until then, we are full of joy and anticipation with these pics………….

Great Grandpa and Zachary

Here’s a pic of Great Grandpa and Zachary reading a book………..

Heart cookie

Mom had a kit to decorate a big heart cookie.  She made a chocolate chip heart cookie and then Mom, Danielle and I decorated it – for Zachary, of course…….

Grandpa love

Zachary loves Grandpa!  No doubt about it.  Grandpa went into the restroom at Uncle Keith’s house and Zachary got upset.  He had real tears – that’s how upset he was.  So sweet.

Button love

Thanksgiving vacation (Part 2 – Washington, DC)

The second part of our trip was to Washington, DC.  I’ve never been there so it was great to see finally.  Here is a gallery of some of the things we saw……
