Grandpa's Last Days in NC

     On Monday night, Grandpa and my boys took me out to supper for my birthday since he won't be here on the exact day.  It was a lovely time with amazing Japanese food.  Tuesday and Wednesday were Mark and Grandpa's busiest days and they got very little sleep.  Even Marcus and I had to help out some on Wednesday.  Luckily, they were very successful in filling the stores with plenty of bread and tons of stuffing.  Mark has said this the past few years his dad has come down, but again this year he said, "we did it the best we could've this year."  So that's always a good way to finish.
     Wednesday night, Marcus and Grandpa played a ton and got lots of snuggles since Grandpa left early Thursday morning.  Mark took him to the airport and then made one final Thanksgiving Day check on his South Asheville stores.  When Grandpa was safely on the plane and Mark was home, we got all our stuff together, packed up the car, and headed out of town to see family for Thanksgiving.  Those pictures will be on another post in a day or two. :)

I know it's fuzzy, but he literally JUMPED onto Grandpa.
