My dad would have LOVED all of his grandkids... and they sure would have loved him. I think Jacob would have thoroughly enjoyed dad's sense of humor, they would have laughed their heads off together. He would have adored Hannah and I think they would have been able to to pretty much disappear together... and I think Sam would have made him laugh so hard! He would have adored Anna's sweet way of saying things and making her laugh. God REALLY blessed us Childress kids with an amazing dad, and our children with the legacy of a godly and loving grandfather.
I'm such a lucky daughter... and I'm thrilled that my kids love my dad so much too.
Before the walk we met the family for dinner and had a blast!
Now enough of the sentimental stuff... move over fellas Walk for Life had bouncy castles!!!!
Sam tried to be patient... ....
Look at the little Peanut waiting in line for the big obstacle course :)
We have SO MUCH to celebrate and to be thankful for.
I hope you'll forgive the sentiment of this post, but it's really amazing to look back at what the evening was a reminder of.
Believe it or not I double-blogged... be sure to check below. :)
