Grandpa Tim Visits

At the end of April, my dad wrote Tonio to see if he could come visit us at the end of May!!! We said, “No way, Jose!” Haha!!! YESSSSSSSSS!!!! He came from May 19th to June 1st. It was great. See for yourself below =).

Picking him up at the airport.

So happy he’s here!

Thanks for the donut!

Walk along the sea to pick up the kids from school.

Grandpa Tim!!! First Django hug.

Grandpa Tim! First Daphné hug.

The kids were so thankful to see Grandpa.

Walking home from school.

First trip to the beach.

Grandpa approves of the temperature.

Morning snuggles.

Another trip to the beach.

That water. So clear. So fun.

We are just missing surf boards and waves - haha!

Tonio persevered with Django and his new mask. Django is now a HUGE fan of snorkeling.

Grandpa exercising his shoulder after his surgery in January. When he goes back to California, he’s allowed to surf again. He’s not excited at all…hehe.

Django Timothy and Grandpa Timothy!

Hugging his oldest granddaughter. She’s the best!

Lunch with Tata Cricri.

At Le Passage, boulangerie, before heading to swim lessons.

Guitar lesson.

Socca in Old Nice.

Socca, farci and pizza.

Finocchio gelato. Yum.

Fun day in town.

I love Nice!

I was so happy my Dad was able to come with me to a musical / concert called “Black Legends.” It was so much fun. Thanks again Pierre and Nancy for this amazing gift!

Last dip before my Dad heads home.

The sea will miss you Grandpa!

Daphné wrote Grandpa the sweetest card. She and I were pretty emotional.

Last snuggle time.

SAD!!! WAAAAAAA!!!

So happy for these two fun weeks.

There he goes, and this is when I broke down and put on my sunglasses inside the airport to hide my blubbery face.

I was able to use our binoculars and flight tracker to find my dad’s plane from our balcony. Au revoir Grandpa Tim. À bientôt. We love you. It was so much fun!!!

Thank you for enjoying these pictures with me. I love my Dad, and I love what an incredible Grandpa he is. Grandma Kathy was missed, but we will hopefully all see each other next summer 2027 in California, Lord willing.
