… just so precious




We had a wonderful visit over the new year. My niece Kristen, her husband Mario, & their adorable little two month old son, Gavin, came over from San Diego. We kept it a secret from my Dad (Great-Grandpa!). . . & the timing couldn't have been better. . .



It was the sweetest imaginable way to start the new year. . .

with smiles. . .







. . . & an abundance of giggles & coo's. . .



. . . yep. . . you could see that coming. . .





. . . & yep, those two - Gavin & Dad . . . they had that special kinda thing going on - that only can happen between a Great Grandpa & his Great Grandson. . .




Sigh!



(They left yesterday, & just for the record. . . I am now in serious 'Gavin withdrawal'!)


Such a great start to this new year . . . one filled with not only fresh new promise. . . but also the experience & blessing of time. . .



Wishing you the best in this new year!

xo, Bren

What a wonderful post, Bren! I just love photos of the babies with their grandparents and this is definitely no exception. How can you not love the time with them??

Soooooo cute! Little girls are cute, but there's just something about boys....I think they're born sweeter than girls. Little Wyatt gives kisses and hugs all day long!

I heard just yesterday...a man say...that there was one thing better than grandkids...it was great-grandkids!
I can see that is probably true!
The photos tell it all. Thanks for sharing!

A lovely image - the contrast in the hands -so beautiful! Don't you feel hands can be as expressive as faces..

Thank you for sharing this precious photo.
