Max's weekend with Nannie & Papa






















We were so excited to get Max for the weekend. Of course being an only child, we were a little late leaving Dallas, but it was nice getting to eat lunch with Nicole and Cody. Max slept on the ride home and woke up when we got to Benbrook just in time to get an ice cream cone from McDonald's. It did not take him long to figure out how to eat a soft cone - he love it and when he got to the cone he was a pro at biting off the cone!!! (sorry Cody & Nic - grandparents rights) When we got to Granbury, we went outside to get some fresh air and Max went straight to the pirate ship - he must have been thinking about walking the plank since his last trip - he stepped right up to it and walked it like he was a pro! Then he went to the theatre where Molly had set up a kitchen, and explored that. Later on we fingered painted and also brush painted. Max is a true artist - he likes getting his hands into his work!!!! He slept on his little cot and only climbed onto Nana a few times - it is so great to wake up and see him open his eyes and smile at you! that memory will be forever etched in my heart. Cody & Nic held off as long as possible, but Max was glad to see them - my only regret about the weekend was that Jack & Molly weren't here to play with him. So anyway - hope you had as great a weekend as Nana and Papa had, Max. We love you -

How awesome, that Maddox will grow up knowing how much his grandparents loved him! That grandchildren are a delight, a pleasure, a blessing, just plain ole fun! Not like grandparents that they had to grow up with. Well, wait, Granny Melba was awesome!

Yeah... he had a blast down there. We had him go to sleep a whole hour early, because of how tired he was. Good job Nana and Papa! He loves you guys.

Nana, you failed to mention that Max was asleep when we got the ice cream. He shared one with you. He was really cute saying Jack's name as Jock and smiling from ear to ear when he said Molly. It looked even funnier with the milk mustache. It was a fun weekend.
