Visiting (Great) Grandma

May 6, 2015 by Aliesha

Last weekend we took a little trip to Richmond, followed by a trip to Northern VA (hello, IKEA!) and to see Tad’s maternal grandmother, as well as his aunt, uncle, and cousin.

When we walked up the steps and Grandma saw Tad holding Jude, she started crying.  She hadn’t seen him since before he was married, so to see him with a wife and three kids must have been a sight!

I tried my best to get photos of the kids with Grandma!  Here are some moments from our evening.

Oh, and if I look sick in these pictures, it’s because I was/am.  Bad cold, but I think I’m over the hump!

We are thankful we got to spend even that brief time with Tad’s extended family!  Hope to be back again before too much longer!
