Santa Claus is coming in August?

Okay, well not exactly, but the kids think his Papa (Shayla's dad) is even better than Santa. And in some ways he probably is to them. Papa came down on Saturday morning for a very quick visit with the boys and a little babysitting duty (of course). The boys were so excited and were not disappointed as Papa told them as soon as he got here that they could choose the restaurant for lunch. Of course, it is always a tough decision between Burger King (yuck) or McDonald's (double yuck). They decided, probably based on the toy of the week in the kids meals, that it would be Burger King. After that, they all settled in for a fun afternoon of playing. Then while Shayla and Tod were off for a fun evening with their supper club, Papa took the boys to O'Charley's for bread, macaroni, and key lime pie. After some basketball and more playing Papa bathed them and tucked them into bed. Papa had to leave Sunday morning to go back to Greenville, SC but not before they went to Krispy Kreme for doughnuts (are you seeing a food trend here? Can you say junk?) The boys were sad to see Papa go but are already counting down the days until he comes back (this time with Mimi) for Austin's birthday party. In the meantime, I'll be loading them up on fruit and veggies to offset their next visit!
