"Ampa" & Italian Fest

A couple weeks ago Grandpa ("Ampa") came over to spend some time with the kids and watch the Bengals game. Turns out the kids dominated his time so he didn't catch much of the football game. After reading some books, Eleanor took him upstairs to play. For the next 45 minutes, while I watched the game, all we heard were giggles from both of them so whatever they were doing they had a good time. The next day several times she looked out the window calling for "Ampa".


The previous day we went to the Italian Festival. These fests have become more fun as Eleanor is able to enjoy the rides, bounce houses, and balloon animals (which lasted about 3 minutes before popping).

Jackson stays wide-eyed and enjoys watching everything going on around him. It's pretty clear he wants to get down and enjoy the fun. I can't imagine the craziness once he joins his sister in running around and exploring.

Enjoying some good pizza, which was only a sample of the Italian foods we ingested.

Ampa Ron how wonderful you look with our grandchildren, they look so happy to be with you. I miss all of you with all my heart and wish I were there to share the special times know Im with you in spirit and look forward to the updates. Ron, you'll have to share my place until I can get there for a visit. Give the kids Geoff, Wendy, Nora and Jack a hug for me. Hope to see you soon
Love to all ~ Keri
