Tuesday’s Treasures…On Stage With Grandpa

 

Last weekend was Homecoming Weekend for my oldest great-nephew, Luke. The plan was to go to dinner with a few friends, then head to the dance. 

 

My niece volunteered to drive Luke and a few of his friends to the Town Lake Boardwalk for dinner and then to the dance. No dates, just there to be seen!

 

                     Luke is 4th in, and one of his friends is to his left. My brother is the silver-haired dude. 

At the last minute, they decided instead of dinner on the Boardwalk, they’d rather see my brother and his band (Checkered Past) play. The restaurant was nearby, and casual and Luke got to show off his Grandpa.

 

PS. the boys did go to their dance later!.

Good morning Kathy - looks like a very nice family gathering.  These weekends are fun.  I remember with our kids.

Grant Schneider it was nice that they could go because they often play in clubs and the kids can’t go

So cool that your nephew wanted to show his grandpa off to his friends. That had to bring a smile to his face!
