Popi and I drove down to Jasper for baby Max's christening and to visit with #1 granddaughter Karolina, who now is true gansta fashion, calls me GK. I think she shortened "granny k" to GK because she likes to be efficient and not waste time. She helped me write out some Christmas cards while we were down there and signed it Karolina and GK. Baby Max is a speedster, crawling towards everything and anything that he's NOT supposed to touch. He has the Christmas tree in his sights. Max and Joanna are doing well, truly blessed with a beautiful family. You can't wipe the smile off that baby who will flash you a winning, heartmelting smile while he heads to the nearest exposed electrical wire. Karolina gave several dance demonstrations while we were there and she read from the new Field Guide to Insects I gave her. That's one smart kiddo.


After the Christening the Pauleys, Lindseys and Kearns headed to the Woodbridge for lunch.
