World Travelers

My brother Tim should be in Italy by now. His plane left Philly around 6 last night. He's going to spend about 4 days touring around different parts of Italy with my dad and comes back Tuesday. I'm a bit jealous! I would love to go, too! Although it's much too short of a trip in my mind. Actually, I'm very happy for him - but hopefully, someday, Josh and I will make it over there. I love the time I've spent in Europe. Though, I haven't been to Italy yet. My dad sent us an email on Wednesday showing us where he's been staying in Italy. It looks absolutely beautiful!!!

And, it won't be long until Chelsea goes to Italy, too! Chelsea has an amazing opportunity to go over this summer to nanny for one of my dad's co-workers. She leaves in the beginning of July and doesn't come back till the middle of September. How fun is that?! Bet she'll come back with tons of cool stories!

Papa G meets Jorja Rose




Once again, I'm getting a little behind in posts...but what's new?! :)
I must have a newborn or something!
However, I just got these pictures from my sister and wanted to share. Because my dad had business in Italy for two and a half months, he was not able to be here for Jorja's birth. He came home for a long weekend though, in the beginning of March, to celebrate my sister Chelsea's birthday and to meet his granddaughter. He's coming home in a little while, but may be returning back again for another couple of months. Imagine my fright though, when I got on the computer Monday morning and saw the headline, "Earthquake in Italy kills 50." I quickly called my dad and was glad to hear that he was fine. My heart goes out to all of the people who were affected by the earthquake or who lost loved ones...especially because Monday morning I knew what that may have felt like. I love you, Dad!!!
