My mom had to travel home after a week (with her parting gift of strep throat – sorry, Grammie!), but Grandpa stayed a few extra days to wrap up a “bear” of a project we had tasked him with – building the bear-proof trash enclosure.\u00a0 So we enjoyed the last few days of fun grandparent time!<\/p>\n

Grandpa shared his love of early-morning donuts with the boys and Tazie before school:<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

And got to see Jimmy’s after-school flag football prowess.\u00a0 Check out our #12 Tom Brady lookalike:<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

So glad you could stay and hang out with us!<\/p>\n
