Happy With Pappy!!

The grandkids call Jason's dad, Bill, Pappy. At first I admitted that it reminded me of my dreaded once yearly female exam. But the name stuck, and after a weekend with Marin when she was itty bitty, Bill proudly exclaimed, "She is happy with Pappy!", and now the title of Pappy is endearing.

Last weekend, while Jason and I were touring the northeast, (for my cousin's wedding in D.C. followed by our dear friend's wedding in Nantucket), Marin spent the weekend at Pappy and Nana's. Bill said it best: "Marin was happy with Pappy all weekend long!"

Aunt Lindsay decided to join in on the sleepover, too. They all had a great time visiting with many of Jason's relatives. Lindsay got a few pictures of the weekend's highlights, including a little snuggle with Marin's Great Grandpa Hinrichs. They also played in the leaves in the yard, went for stroller rides, and cheered the Illini to victory! It sounds like it was a weekend filled with Marin's leg kicks, arm flaps, and gigantic grins; all true tests of the great time that she had!
