A visit with Papa Bill


Great Grandpa (known to all the great grandkids and "Papa Bill") stopped by to say hi and got right down on the floor and had so much fun playing with Jalen. A few days later he and Grandma Elsa took ALL 5 of his great grandkids shoe shopping, a tradition that started with Lacey and I almost 30 years ago (yes...we still get shoes too!!) He asked us how many great grandpa's take their grandkids shoe shopping to which we answered not too many. He then asked us where these shoe grandpa's go when they leave this world...and informed us that they go to "shoe heaven". We have been so truly blessed that we get to spend as much time as we do with ALL of our great grandparents...everything from breakfast at Little Cooperstown, to dinners at Grandma's house, all the holiday's and birthday's we spend together, and of course shoe shopping. Thank you Papa Bill and Grandma Elsa and we look forward to many more!
