Welcome Home, Pop Pop

After a LONG almost three months, Pop Pop is home! What an adventure he had going through Alaska and the great Northwest! Sam has been asking for ages, “When is Pop Pop going to be home?” so we were glad when he finally was. Sam was, of course, happy to see him, but equally as happy to have the presents he brought her. I think her favorite “present” came before he was even home though — a postcard postmarked from the North Pole! When Mark and I showed her what the postmark meant, and Sam really thought about what that meant, she was not too sure that she believed that Pop Pop was where Santa lives. 😉 He promised her that he told Santa she was a very good girl.
After a nice family dinner that was a long time in coming, Sam brought her Pop Pop out back so he could see the corn hole games he made her in person. When he left they weren’t yet painted and they turned out so well.
Welcome home, Pop Pop! Let’s hope this was your last long trip!
