I am very much looking forward to it! I started a tradion 12 years ago when my first two Grandchildren were small. We call it Pappaw Day me and the Grandchildren go for pizza and a movie. It started mainly to get the little ones out of the house while baking,cooking and last minute wrapping was done.

Now 12 years later its me and 6 grandchildren ages 7 to 19 and only us. no one else is invited. When the eldest turn 18 someone asked her about if she was still going to join in on Pappaw Day and she said she would always be there. And I added that I hoped a day would come when I would make a exception to the guest list and add my Grandchildren to the fellowship.

PS: I brought all of them black long sleeve tee shirts last year with the White Tree of Gondor on them. We will all be wearing them and I am looking forward to having a picture taken of us all in the lobby almost as much as the movie!
