Grandma Nagel

This is Grandma Nagel with Austin. It's a rare treat because she hates to have her picture taken. I somehow convinced her to pose for a shot over the Thanksgiving holiday at her house in Idaho Falls. Grandma Nagel is so special to Austin. He gets so excited at the mention of visiting her and lights up when he sees her face. She's armed and ready when we arrive...balloons, bubbles, clown sprinklers, Wiggles DVDs, new (old) toys for the depths of the basement. It's a child's paradise at Grandma's house! She always wakes before everyone to be ready for the wild and crazy 2-year-old (and groggy 30 somethings) awaiting her presence. She is truly a wonderful Grandma who treasures every moment with her family. Her love of Austin, her zest for life, and her devotion to our family is such an incredible blessing in our lives. I hope she knows how much we love and appreciate her and miss our short 5 minute drives to see her.
