The Best of Times, the Worst of Times

Waiting for Grandpa at the airport

The best of times is when Grandpa comes to visit. The worst of times is when Grandpa leaves :( My dad came out to visit us the last week of October and Gage became Grandpa's shadow. Gage has a new found love of tools and the basement. My dad took on some big projects and built some shelving units for the basement, put installation in the basement, and fixed some outlets that had electrical shortages. Amongst all the working was lots of playing, good food (Kopp's, Fuddruckers, grilling out)and later then normal bedtimes for Gage.

Gage decided about 45 seconds of waiting was all he could do before he decided it would be better to start exploring the airport

We went straight from the airport to Kopp's and by then Gage and Grandpa were best buddies

Gage's new obsession - sweeping the basement

Gage loved going to Fuddruckers and even got to pick out a special treat with Grandpa (the item Gage is so enamoured with in the picture is a cookie he got to pick out from the bakery)
