Learning about being a grandparent is different from being a parent. Experiences are new, challenging, exciting and responsibilities are not less, but changed. It's all about love and family. And this blog, while intending to be all about a grandpa has morphed into other posts. Still fun to write about...

The Sisters are Coming; and Coming; and Coming
A week from today (Wednesday) the daughters begin showing up for the annual "Sisters' Weekend" now officially held in Las Vegas. While we have had several of these weekends this is the 2nd one for Las Vegas. It only took one trip for the girls to decide this would be the permanent home. Last year all five daughters showed up with one new baby. This year Daughter-In-Law #1 is also attending and leaving her precious son at home with hubby. She is pretty brave. I'm not convinced an almost 8 month old can survive on pizza while mom is gone, but then again dad is pretty proficient with a bottle.
And I'm leaving town on Wednesday before the girls arrive to take advantage of some quality time with 4 Boise grandchildren while mom is in Las Vegas and their dad is also out of town. It will also allow me to spend time with 2 more grandchildren. Son number 2 is going to help me. I'm actually looking forward to the time with grandchildren, son, and family. And I think the girls are glad to have dad out of the house.
