Our Hero Grampy Comes Home!

After one very long year, Grampy is HOME!!! He just finished serving his second tour in Kuwait. We had 12 hours notice of his homecoming...that's how the Army is, believe it or not! His plane landed at LAX at 11:18 p.m. so it was way past Effie's bedtime but she was happy as a clam to see her Grampy! The last time my Dad saw Effie, she was 6 weeks old. We talked to him often on the webcam so she did get to see him and hear his voice. She wasn't shy when she saw him...I'm sure she knows that is her Grampy! We are so glad to have him home!

Gabe and Baby Steele. (He is 6 months younger than Effie and he weighs more than her!)
