Florida Chronicles Part 5: The Uncles

Today was the day for uncles (and an aunt).  We started off at my Uncle Sam & Aunt Joan's house this morning.  Sam was my dad's brother.  He and Uncle Mark Scharff are the closest to blood related grandads that Wade has.  So, he's pretty special. 

Wade also got to meet Jimmy, who is my Aunt Joan's 94 year old dad! 

He also had a blast playing with their dogs Samantha and Brandy.

After Sam & Joan's we went to Christmas Wonderland.  There were no uncles there.  Well, at least none that were related to Wade. 

This evening CJ (my brother) returned from 6 weeks in Serbia, Bosnia and Kosovo. 

Wade was really uncertain of CJ at first. 

Soon they started playing though.  Here CJ is explaining an aqueduct to Wade.

And Wade warmed right up to him.

Uncle CJ, you wouldn't really put that on my head, would you? Uh, yah. And he did.  Remind me not to let CJ babysit.

I guess this was supposed to make Wade feel better.

But in the end they're still buddies...

Tomorrow I am heading home.  We have had so much fun the last week and a half here with Grammy.  It is sad to be leaving.  But it is good to be going home.  I know Andrew has been missing Wade terribly.  And soon after we get home my sister-in-law, Anna will be having her baby girl Callie.  Then before we know it, it'll be Christmas and we'll be heading back to see Grammy again!  Yay!
