This is Cameron & my father-in-law a couple years ago...this photo captures one of the things they do with each other (and it seems to have been adopted by the other grand kids too) which is "fake fight" They make these ugly faces at each other, throw insults, "Grandpa, you're a monkey face", etc. The funny thing is, I used to do the exact same thing with my Grandpop...may be it's in the genes. So to me, every time I witness this, I get the warm, fuzzy memories of my own "fake fights" with my Grandpop so long ago...
Also, it's Mark's birthday today....Happy Birthday, Grandpa/Mark!!

I love it! Grandpa's are the best!!!
For some reason, I think Grandpa's think they are supposed to be grouchy. My father-in-law tries but he is too happy:-)
That is SO sweet! Perfect grandpa moments and you captured it so perfectly.
I have to say, though, I am distracted by the absolute gorgeousness of Cameron's hair!
Adorable picture...Love it when you capture moments like this!
That's great pic and great story! Happy Bday to Grandpa!
My kids do this with their dad so I am guessing that he will do it with our grandkids one day. :)
Awww... cute pic and story behind it!
I love the picture and the story behind it...it is funny and loving at the same time!
What great memories! There's nothing like a photo to bring back the memories of childhood and a beloved grandparent.

I put my money on the girl! Grandpa looks like a softie.
Lovely Grandpa moment!!!!

That's hilarious! You've captured a great moment here :)
What a great picture. Love it! What a treasure, to capture that moment!
That is really sweet! Makes me miss my own grandfathers... and my own dad and FIL for my girlies!
I'd love to help you come up with ideas for your my twin doll! Just because the ad is there, it doesn't mean I can' laugh at the company. (And it doesn't mean I can't take it down when I feel like it.) I like the idea of "Stepford daughter"!
Holy crap, do you know you have the longest word verification EVER? Geesh! :)
SO sweet! Fun memories of Grandpa! Love the "Monkey Face". Cute.
That is so dern sweet. I want to make funny faces at my grandpa now too. :)
