The Great-Grandparents

Patrick's paternal grandparents live in Austin. They are the reason that we had our wedding at Horseshoe Bay. At the time, my grandfather was still able to travel and they were not, so the decision was easy. It was very important to us to have them there. Charlie is their first great-grandchild so we try to bring Charlie over there every time we are in Spicewood. Here they are meeting Charlie when he was about 6 weeks old:
And here they are just this past week:


Charlie had a great time showing off his army crawl and pulling-up skills. And Grandmother pulled out some pot and pans and measuring cups for Charlie to play with. He enjoyed it fully and was a great source of entertainment:

I love that Charlie has these two people in his life. Both Grandmother and Grandpop are artists and still enter their work into various art exibits around south Texas. Grandmother does small and large collages. We have a few in our house and I LOVE them:

And we just received this in the mail from Grandpop:
He's a fabulous wood-craftsman! I love that Charlie will have this rhino puzzle to play with for years to come.

Thank you both for being such wonderful Great-Grandparents to our little man!
