Grandpop arrives!

C'mon Grandpop! Go faster!!!
Dad came from about 2 feet of snow to green grass and sunshine! They are decorating their gingerbread house now after eating some of the decoratations, of course.

The driveway in Vermont! I soooooo don't miss shoveling that!


My dad made it out of the blizzard in Vermont yesterday! His plane arrived a few hours later than expected, but he is here. Since Cailean was working yesterday, he met my dad at baggage claim. When we picked him up outside, the boys were going CRAZY in the backseat. Waving, yelling, "Grandpop you are here...finally" and had smiles from ear to ear! We got home and the boys immediately asked for the gingerbread house. A tradition dad started a few years ago!

We went to Panera Bread for breakfast this morning and then went on a hunt for new sneakers for me! Dick's Sporting Goods was the winner!!! Before coming home we went to Tom's Train Store at South Hills mall and oh wow...it was sooo cool! Dad has his own garden railroad and a few other trains in the house, so he was loving it. The boys had a blast running the trainsets!

We're taking a little break right now since Gavin is napping. Ian is watching Alvin and the Chipmunks with my dad.
