Samuel had such fun at "Gigi Camp." He had a great time and my parents loved showing him the sights, sounds, and smells of Nashville. Here are a few of his adventures...
No trip to Nashville is complete without a trip to the Pancake Pantry. Samuel gets "Bears in the snow" (chocolate child pancakes, cut in the shape of bears, with powdered sugar... a one year olds dream come true!). They wanted us to send this picture to put up on their wall. So, if you are ever at Pancake Pantry... look for Samuel's picture!!

And, a walk at Centennial Park... this is the bench Bud proposed to me on :)

The zoo... if you look close, you can see zebras in the background.

I'm not sure where this picture was taken, but it was a good one of my dad. His official name is G'daddy, but Samuel calls him "Dodo" or it might be "Dido," depending on who you ask. Dad is pushing for "Dido," for some reason he thinks it's better than "Dodo."

Aunt Lolo made it to visit Samuel as well. Bud and I barely missed her, she came the day after we left and left the day before we came back. :( Obviously, Sam loves Aunt "Wowo" and was very glad to see her!

They took a trip to the Nashville Library. Sam liked this chair a lot...

... and has always been a fan of these toys.

Holly was such a good sport with a not so gentle toddler around...

Samuel wasn't sure about riding his tricycle from Gigi and Dido, but liked to push it around in circles. And, in the corner of this picture you can see his beloved "Memo" (Elmo) stuffed animal (another gift from Gigi and Dido). This toy talks in Elmo's high pitched voice and stutters like a broken record player, but is adored by Samuel, so surprisingly I don't get annoyed by it.
Thanks Mom and Dad for taking care of our little boy so we could get away. We were glad to know Samuel was having a blast, being smothered with kisses and hugs, and eating well (not healthy, but well :)). Looking forward to sending him off to camp again sometime! Love you!

That looks like a great week! I love the picture of him sitting on the dog's back. So funny.
He looks so happy in every picture. I'm sure knowing he was having a great time made leaving him easier. The chocolate face is adorable!
