Grandma Thomas and Carma meet


Chuck's fabulous... and fun... and feisty... Grandma Thomas made her annual trip out west in June and as always packed in lots and lots of adventures during her trip. We were very lucky to have the lure of a new great-grandbaby that brought her to Nampa for a quick overnight stay!
Grandma with her newest great-grandchild! Carma is #13 for Grandma; right now there are seven girls and six boys, with two more great-grandsons due this fall/winter, courtesy of Amanda and Rachel :).

Carma was content to snuggle up and cuddle lots with Grandma:
 The boys were pretty happy to have cousin George to play with (more on that later), but Will broke away for a bit to show Grandma his special kindergarten keepsake book.

 More cuddling!
 
I'm so grateful that my kids are able to get to know their great-grandma - what a blessing!

 And although you wouldn't know it from the majority of the pictures, Grandma didn't come alone, Chuck's mom and aunt Sue were here too:
But they were very sweet and yielded Carma to Grandma most of the time :). I'm disappointed I didn't get a picture of Sue with Carma; they had some good bonding time out on our front porch glider when Carma was fussy in the evening. Sue's getting lots of good practice for when her kids start giving her some grandbabies! (I'm looking at you, Liz and Chris - the extended Thomas family needs more Democrats; I've contributed all I can!!)

Thanks again for coming Grandma - I know you probably spent more time in the car coming and going than you were here! We appreciate it so much!! Love you!

She looks like the sweetest old grandma ever. Side note: Will is such a stud in his button up shirt.
