A Special Lunch/Visit!

A few weeks ago, our family had the opportunity to have lunch with Daddy's biological grandfather for the first time! (The Lord opened the door for Dad to find and meet his biological mom and her side of the family, while we were in Alaska this past summer.) Dad and Mom had already met him, and now we children were getting to meet him!
He invited us to a very yummy seafood buffet and encouraged us to try everything for the experience!
Sushi, crawfish, and clams, just a few of the many different foods there.
The Grandfather with the three little boys! He was very excited to meet us!
Do you see any resemblance??;)
Surrounded by his great-grandsons!:)
The Grandfather was very  pleased with his great-grandsons and really loved spending time with them!
Us ladies with the Grandfather.:) It was so neat to see similarities between him and Daddy....:)
After a yummy, adventureous lunch, the Grandfather invited us to visit with him at his home. Here Joshua is his walking buddy!
We really enjoyed looking at albums and pictures, and often found pictures with expressions and faces that reminded us of Daddy!:) That was really neat to see!!
Lots of territory to cover in these albums....;)

The grandfather as a young man! See how much Daddy takes after him!!!:)
 Timmy really enjoyed meeting his great-grandpa!
Grandfather gave Evie a pink frog and this hat, both of which she is now very attached to!
Enjoying her yellow hat!
A family picture....
Saying goodbye...:)

"Behold, children are a heritage from the Lord, the fruit of the womb is a reward. Like arrows in the hand of a warrior, so are the children of one’s youth. Happy is the man who has his quiver full of them; they shall not be ashamed, but shall speak with their enemies in the gate."
