Every time we are in Utah, we try really hard to visit Alex's grandparents on his dad's side of the family.
It's probably one of Alex's favorite things to do. (mine too!!)
It was their first time meeting Peter boy, so it was a little more special. (although, I feel like every time we have visited it was to show them a new addition, tell them we were pregnant, or show them how big I was because I was almost done being pregnant.)
Grandpa Lyle reminds me of my mom's dad, who Peter is named after, too. He passed away from skin cancer when I was only 7, so I don't remember much of him.
But when I am in their home, I imagine my grandpa being pretty similar to him because of the way they have both chosen to live their lives. I feel so grateful that Alex's grampa has treated me like his own! The kiss on the cheek I get from him every visit is just so sweet, and welcoming.
Laney snuggled right up to him after pictures, so I had to snap this. She sat on his lap for a bit. It was darling.
Every time we visit too they always have food! They always ask Alex to bless it, and without fail every time, he tears up while saying it. I love how much gratitude Alex has for his grandparents.
It was a good visit. We are so lucky to have them in our lives!
