Meeting the Great Grandparents

Perhaps the thing that I wanted to see the most was Isaac meeting his great grandparents. They were so involved in helping raise Monica and I as kids and I still rely on them for advice, insights, stories, sayings, and the occasional very dry joke. Pap and GG were about as excited to meet Isaac as I was to have them meet him. Here is a video of their very first interaction, Isaac trying to open his birthday card from them (THANKS Pap and GG!):



He was a little reserved, not exactly shy, but hesitant for about thirty seconds, then he warmed up to both of them and had a great time. Here is a picture of GG and Isaac:

And here are Isaac and his Pap hanging out at the front door of 75 Sexton Drive looking out into the Circle:



GG and Pap came back the next day when Auntie Monica was in town. We all hung out and watched Isaac:

On Thursday or Friday night G-Daddy busted out the torch and lit up the pizza oven. We all hung out outside. G-Daddy was manning the oven, making pizzas on his outdoor granite countertop, while GG helped feed Isaac Anthony:

Isaac and Pap were fascinated by each other and Pap's rock:

Finally, on Sunday, we all went to Uncle David and Aunt Barbara's house for a cookout/birthday party (Isaac, Pap, and Little David were all born within two weeks of each other). There Isaac got his first brush with his innate Puckett need for speed genes:

Reach for the throttle Isaac Anthony!
