Great Grandma Shack

This past Friday, Samuel had an extremely productive day as he met all his maternal great grandparents in one day.

My Grandma Shack was visiting from Texas, so we drove up very late on Thursday night and spent Friday in Tallahassee until driving home that night.

We've found that it is much easier to travel with him when he's in his heavy nighttime sleep.  Hopefully he'll be a better traveler once he's able to entertain himself with toys.

Since we got in so late on Thursday, Samuel didn't get to meet his Great Grandma Shack until early the next morning even though we slept in adjacent rooms (thank goodness he's such a good sleeper).

Then we headed over to the retirement community where my Monroe grandparents live.  We travel so little with Samuel that we hadn't been over there since a few months before Samuel's birth, so it was good for me to see them as well.

And although my Grandpa Monroe turned 91 this past August, I can't recall him ever being so animated as when he held Samuel.  It truly is a blessing from the Lord to see so many generations in one room, especially when we all call upon the name of the Lord.
