Welcome Papa Tom

Papa Tom, my dad, has been on a L-O-N-G three week business trip with stops in Hong Kong, Vietnam, Taiwan, Malaysia, Singapore, London, and then finally Dubai!! He decided to book an around the world ticket and pit-stop in Dubai, as a final destination, to see his granddaughter...well, and us of course!!
We were so excited to see him! He is spending four days with us and then heading home to Rockford. I think he will sleep for days when he gets home. Fayth was so cute saying Papa Tom, Papa Tom as I was preparing her he was coming to visit. We are giving him a "world wind" tour of Dubai and he is golfing with Jon of course! Attached are a few photos of Papa arriving. He bought Fayth a few outfits in Vietnam that she loved. We will be sad to see him go...but our next guest, Gramie Lynn, arrives on Saturday. They feel badly they couldn't do the trip together. Next time!! Funny though, the two of them have been chatting on "Skype!"

How Awesome your dad got to visit. I hope you had a wonderful time. Also loved the trick or treating photos. Gilbert got his beautiful cards from Fayth yesterday, so cute- thank you for sending them, I saved the envelope to put in his baby book- his first piece of air mail!
Hope you are doing well. Miss You!

Suzanne,

Did Dad tell you after he traveled back 26 hours, he stopped by the house, grabbed his clubs and shot a 78! What did you feed him? Apparently, jet lag was an afterthought.
