Top Ten

Gogo and Grandpa are finally home and we have missed them tremendously while they have been gone. Here are our Top ten Reasons We Are So Glad To Have Them Home:

10. We have loved you and missed you dearly. You give great advice and always give us a spiritual lift.

9. Retreat just isn't the same without you.

8. You give great hugs.





7. No one makes cobbler quite as good as you do.

6. I had a reason to make coconut-balls again.

5. This picture is much prettier with Mom in it. (it would be even prettier if Elyse was in it too. I will have to Photoshop her in.)



4. Now Coug can finally meet Grandpa Potter.

3. Chad has someone he can beat at Perudo.

2. We no longer have to worry about you getting tick fever.

And the Number 1 reason why we are glad to have you home again
