How fitting that I post these pictures the
day after Father's Day...
Here is Grandpa Robinett!
Seriously, he's the greatest man I've ever met!
In early May, Hudsy Puds made his first
road trip to see his Great Grandparents!
Hudson was perfect on the drive and
LOVED getting to see them again!
PaPa Robinett LOVES his grandbabies...
he holds them, plays with them, walks them...
but most of all, loves them!!!
We ALWAYS love seeing Aunt Neeeeny, too!
How about some of the girly cousins...
Ellie, Jolie, Hadlee, Mylee
Gotta love these boy cousins, too!

I am so thankful for weekends like this.
I am so thankful for weekends like this.How wonderful is it that my children
KNOW their GREAT Grandparents so well?
Grandma Pierce loves Troy like crazy.
They are so close and I love that about them.
She treats & loves me like her own, too!
So sweet....We were also lovin' us some Mamaw that weekend, too!
As I've mentioned before, I never knew
my mother's parents. My dad's mom had
a debilitating stroke when I was two.
My grandpa spent his days caring for her until
her death and then he passed away
when I was in college. I loved them dearly,
but due to their health, they were never
able to be typical grandparents to me like
they were to my older sisters & two cousins.
I missed out on A LOT.
When I picture what grandparents should
be like...I picture Grandma & Pa Pa Robinett.
They have four children and too many grandkidsand great grandkids for me to count! 29 maybe?
Somehow though they love each of us and
Somehow though they love each of us and treat us all equally. They are truly
Godly people and I love them so, so much.
What a blessing for my little Hudson
What a blessing for my little Hudsonto experience their love like
Hadlee and Walker have!

Sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeetness! Love the RG quote! Are you sure you don't have a monogramming machine packed away in your kit-n-caboodle? And BTW...I am so MO FREAKIN excited for Kelly G! Wooooo Nelly! When is she due?

You are so right, Mindy! I never knew either of my grandfathers...they both died before I was born. I'm so glad my boys have been able to experience the love of my parents (and Bill's mother, who died about 5 years ago).
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful legacy your family has...you are truly blessed!
The pics are great...I enjoy "meeting" all of your family. It kinda makes me feel as if I'm a family member. :-)
Gosh Mindy, you really do have it right! Your kids are so lucky to have all those relatives in their lives. And, you are doing such a great job of keeping close to them. I loved the little bit of a story with your photos. We'd be friends in "real life" :).
ReplyDeleteA facebook account??? Oh I love that!! What a blessing to have so much love from Great-grandparents...awesome!
ReplyDeleteSaw your post on another blog... just stopping by to say hello. Looks like you have a wonderful family.
