A visit to see Pop

While home, one of the main items on our itinerary was to visit Eric's sweet grandparents who live about an hour from our parents.  Eric's grandfather "Pop" has been suffering from Alzheimer's Disease and about 3 years ago moved into a home specifically for Alzheimer patients.  He is as happy as can be and always excited to see us.  His grandmother is about 5 minutes away and visits often.  It's so sweet to see them together.  He always knows Marie "Mania" whenever she comes in.

Pop's telling me something interesting 
Go Yanks!!!

Such a cutie!

We went out for a walk waiting for Grandma and Patti to arrive. 
Love this!!


Patti and Pop

We were craving some NY pizza, so Patti took us to the most delicious Pepe's Pizza...actually it came from New Haven originally and the owner swore he'd never be anywhere but CT.  However, with the economy the way it is, real estate was cheap so he opened a shop in Yonkers, and boy, are we glad he did!  Rumor has it that he ships the water in from New Haven, dedication!!  
Grandma, Pop and Eric
Oh my gosh, I cannot even tell you how delicious this pizza tasted...we were in heaven!  
Love this!

We loved being able to spend time with Patti, Pop and Grandma.  The countdown to Thanksgiving begins now!

On October 22, we are walking in Honor of Eric's Grandfather in the Alzheimer's Walk.  Please contact me if you would like to donate :)
