We spent one of our evenings in Florida at my Grandfather Gregory's lifetime achievement ceremony in Orlando.
We all had dinner before hand and my studly men all wore suits... my hubby is so handsome... :)
We didn't get to sit with the guest of honor but after dinner Connor went and sat up on his lap... the pictures that follow are so funny!!
What is that smell?
PopPop was that you??
Oh yeah... well I can do that too!!
Vale didn't seem as bothered... he's just saying cheese!!!
Kyle and Kimber were there too!
Kyle seems to be enjoying Grandpa's company! :)
I'm not exactly sure why they are acting like they are in the military... but it's a guy thing right...??
Love this family picture just wish my dad was in it too! :)
We then went down to the conference where they honored Grandpa and gave him the Faithful Servant Award which was really cool!
They introduced him and told stories about his beginnings with the association he worked with for like 30 years... He said he joined because he felt like he could be a member without having to compromise any of the things that he believed in. :) Grandpa has always stood firm for what he believes. He is a man who truly trusts and depends on God and what His Word says.
Grandma was honored with him since their ministry was done together.
They are still in love after over 50 years...
Then the award was presented.
And grandpa stood to receive it, even though it took a lot of his strength to do.
He then said a couple of words and grandma did too...
(and we have a lovely view of Aunt Pat's hair-do...) :)
Then my Uncle Rick preached a message. It was a very good night and I felt honored to be able to be there to witness this evening.
