Great Grandpa Frank Comes to Visit

Last week Wade got to meet another relative!!! He met his Great Grandpa Frank for the first time! Grandpa Frank planned to visit for a little less than a week before returning to St. Louis. We went out to eat a few times and just enjoyed each others company while he was here. It was very nice to see the four generations (Grandpa Frank, Donna, Jeremy, Wade) together, after all it doesn't happen that often! So we spent as much time together as we could!!


Friday night we had dinner at Woolgrower's. Here is Wade waiting patiently for his cereal....no basque food for him yet!

Saturday we hung out at home for a little bit, Donna and Grandpa Frank went to visit Grandma Dorothy, then we met up for dinner at Rosa's Italian food!!!!

For Donna to see her mom and dad together again, reminiscing and rejoicing, it was more than she expected! But all was well again after 3 .....maybe 4 glasses of wine!!! (Even I lost track!) It was nice to see "Nonna" to let loose, relax, and enjoy the evening sharing a bunch of memories after such an eventful afternoon! Sunday we had a very yummy breakfast made by Jeremy "The Chef"! Then we went to get Wade a few new toys and a little pool that his Great Grandpa Frank bought! Wade thought by getting into Grandpa's suit case he might stay longer!!!Monday before Grandpa Frank left we had lunch at IN-N-OUT !Then Wade and I made our way up to see Grandma Dorothy once again before Grandpa Frank left town! I really wanted to take the opportunity to take some pictures of Wade's Great Grandparents from his daddy's side!!! It was the sweetest thing I think I have ever seen! Grandma Dororthy and Grandpa Frank both still so sweet for each other, even after all these years!!!!
