My Grandpa and Me (when I was 3)
My grandpa was the best. Granted he could be gruff at times, but he always loved to play with the kids!Case in point:
Here I am, around 3 or 4 years old, and he's letting me put curlers in his hair!
When I got married 14 1/2 years ago, I asked him to walk me down the aisle (Dad MIA, a story for another time), but he was having trouble walking. But he was there at my wedding! And I got the last picture I ever had with just me and him:

Those are wonderful pictures!
I do Love Thursday too, but seeing your warm grandfatherly memories and photos reminded me of one of my favorite photos of my grandfather--also gruff with everyone else but, well, me ;) I have a few older shots of us that will probably end up scanned as a Love Thursday sooner or later as well. Are grandfathers great?
That last line should be °aren't grandfathers great?" or "are grandfathers great or what?" Whichever you prefer ;)
Curlers in his hair!? That is love!
These are wonderful pictures. I never knew either of my grandfathers. It must be a special like of love.
Happy LT.
What fabulous memories. I'm so glad you have photographs to help keep them fresh. Thanks so much for sharing, and Happy Love Thursday!
