It had been 3 years since our last visit, so it was certainly due time. As a result, Nathan needed time to warm up to his Grandpa again. However, Grandpa had some tricks up his sleeve.
Trick #1 - Playtime. Once you sit on the floor to actually play and 'spend time' with Nathan - you're IN.


Trick #2 - Donuts. Give this kid something sweet to eat and suddenly your best buddies. Reminds me of another Hull I know.


Here's Nathan showing Grandpa his newly found fishing skills.

Trick #3 - Trains. Grandpa bought Nathan some more track pieces and a new train. Pretty much sealed the deal, Nathan's friendship can be so easily bought it's not even funny.

We had a great visit with my dad. Not sure when we'll see him again, as I understand it, he's going on tour this fall.

Seriously just kidding. ;)
