A smile for mom

For several days our grand daughter Alyse
was staying with us in Raleigh.
Here is a short pictorial of the last day of the visit:



Early in the morning Alyse begins wondering
about what is going to happen today.

Soon we packed the car and started our trip to Charlotte.

The day before returning to Charlotte we took her to one

of our favorite restaurants: Cracker Barrel.

Alyse enjoyed her vegetables.

Alyse also enjoyed the short time sitting
on the porch. She sat so tall in a favorite rocking chair. One day she will be
seating in a bigger chair for her beloved tarheels!



We loved to she her enjoying herself so much.
The trip to Charlotte went very quickly as we listened
to the DVD's that Alyse was watching.
We know know the songs of the Wiggles and the Backyardans.

When we arrived in Charlotte we went directly
to Qudoba Mexican Grill to meet Stephanie and Josh for lunch.
Alyse smiled with great joy when she saw her mom approach.

Another trip to visit Papa and Grammy has come to an end.

When will the next trip to Raleigh take place?

Alyse may come see Papa on Father's Day.

We hope so.
