Nana and the Colonel

Nana and the Colonel, my grandparents, have come up to Utah two weekends in a row, which has been quite a treat!  They live out in Las Vegas but come up quite often.  Nana and the Colonel have a special place in my heart.

Since I was born they have cared for me so deeply.  They call frequently just to check in and see how I am doing.  They send emails, packages, money, etc.  They have been to countless soccer games, dance recitals, etc.  They always know what is going on in my life, and my family's, and genuinely care about what I am doing.

Whenever they are down grandpa, the Colonel, takes my car and gets it checked out from head to toe.  He cleans it, fills it with gas, gets anything fixed on it that may need fixing, the works.  Money is no obstacle for his granddaughter's safety.  They take us to dinner, buy us prizes, but most of all they listen.  They talk with me and want to hear about everything going on in my life.  I love to talk with them!

And man do they love Kaya, their great-granddaughter!  One day grandpa came home with two donuts, one for him and one for Kaya.  ha ha  He sat down, cut it into little pieces, picked Kaya up and put her on his knee and they ate donuts.  He would do just about anything for that girl!

Overall, I am so blessed to have such incredible grandparents.
