My sister, Amie, came out this weekend. While she was here we went through some old pictures of my dad from his young days. It was fun to see him in his early days. I imagine my grandma telling him, "Dennis, fix your hat!" hehe.
Wow, I never knew how much my brother looked like my dad until I saw this picture. My brothers baby pictures look almost identical to dad!!
My mom said she thought he looked like Robert Redford when
they first got married. I see the resemblance in this picture...

My grandma was one of the sweetest women I know. She used to babysit us while my parents worked and I always loved living next door to her and my grandpa. This picture was taken at Hogle Zoo in 1991. She loved her hamburgers and cokes from McDonalds and my grandpa took her out for this treat every Friday after she got her hair done. He continued this up until she went into the care center. He probably even snuck her some in there.
This was at our wedding. They were earlier comparing their muscles. He isn't about to punch her! haha..I miss his spunky attitude and his hugs most of all. I just imagine how incredibly happy my grandma was to see him again. I can't wait for the day when I'll get to see them both again!!

So cute! I love the story about your grandpa taking your grandma out for burgers and a coke, every friday. That is so cute!! Something just between them, I love it! What a fun trip down memory lane for you!
