    WooHoo

    Grand dads rock. Welcome to our exclusive little club nemo.

    My granddaughter is a real sight right now. She had a head on colision with a tree whilst sledding last Saturday. Some pretty good abrasions on her face & her left eye is swollen shut. She's been a real trooper tho & is doing fine.

    Funny thing about kids (Grand or not) they have a real nack for taking some pretty good bangs and bumps. Then they heal up really fast - wish I could....

    I think the first ones we worry about more becasue we don't know how well they are put together, then after a few we come to realize with all the knocks and falls they will make it through it all.

    Well, when her father was a kid, he was always getting banged up. We were ready for her to follow in his footsteps. On his 4th birthday, he came downstairs & said "I'm 4 years old, I can do dangerous things now".

    Shamelessly taking the opportunity to show a cupla pix of the grandkids at Halloween.

    Isabell as Gothic Princess

    & yes, they are both precious (from their paternal grandfather side of course)

    Every grandfather here gets to wear his pants up to his armpits at cbub meetings?

    I just remembered, I used to have 2 grandfathers, well I guess I still do, just have to go to the grave yard to visit them...

    Anyhoo, since I'm a member in good standing, can my grandfathers be grandfathered in to this club?...

    OH, & lest I forget, cute yunguns Tom & Ritchie...

    Thanks for the reminder, Tom. I was just in Atlanta for Denva's "first birthday", but it was an early party since I couldn't make it on her actual birthday. She's taking a few steps already. Loves to be on her feet. Big girl!
