Happy Grandparents Day!!

Today is GRANDPARENTS Day....yes, many of you believe that this holiday is just yet another Hallmark holiday, but I think it is great day to celebrate family and GRANDPARENTS. We did call my grandparents and Sam & Nadia to wished them a happy day. We were able to spend Grandparents Day with my parents. They came to our church and then we spent the afternoon in the Stockyards. It was a lot of fun!! We started with lunch at The Love Shack.......ever heard of Chef Tim Love? He is a native Fort Worthian and is an amazing chef. He owns 2 places in the Stockyards and we enjoyed some good eatin' from his burgers and shakes place.
After lunch, we shopped around a bit and mom & dad were able to get a few Christmas presents out of the way. In the Stockyards, they were having an old timers car show...it was fun to walk around and see all the fun cars....I think it took Dad on a trip down memory lane to high school. We made it a point to be at Stockyard Station when the train pulled in from Grapevine. We were able to see the vintage train engine in the turn around. Hudson was so excited and loved it!
Here are a few pics to commemorate GRANDPARENTS Day!! Ella enjoyed french fries and a shake for lunch...the little girl can put it away!!

Paul and Amanda,
You both are amazing for each other, you are the best parents, and you are so loving and generous to us and to others. We are so very proud of you both and we love you so much. Also, thank you from both our hearts for blessing our lives with two of the most precious grandchildren in the world. We love spending as much time as we can with Hudson and with Ella. I know we spoil them, but that is what Nana and Papa enjoy doing. Their love for us and their precious smiles and laughter touches our hearts everytime we see them or talk to them on the phone. Thank you again for worshiping with you at church, for the delicious lunch, the fun at the stockyards, and watching the Cowboy game at your home. We are so blessed by God.
We love you all soooooo much,
Nana and Papa
