These photos were taken Christmas of '09. John seemed really happy to have us all there and it was probably one of my favorite Christmases with him. My niece and nephews and Dylan and I performed a little Christmas Karaoke and John seemed pretty tickled by it.
The top 2 photos are John opening my & Dylan's presents to him. In the first he's laughing quite hard, but discreetly, over a t-shirt that said, "I'm the one you've got to blow to get a drink around here."
The second is self explanatory. I think he got a kick out of it.
I don't know if he ever wore them, but I just wanted to make him laugh.













The last photo here is a portrait taken by Ihsan McCoy.
I think it captures his Great Grandfather pretty nicely.
