Papa's Twinkly Eyes

I absolutely love this picture! It was taken at the Old Spaghetti factory on Saturday night when we went out to Dinner with my Dad and my big brother. I love the action that is captured in this picture. The twinkle in my Dad's eyes, the bowl of ice cream all eaten up, Camilla playing with her Uncle Chris, and Hyrum's sock falling off.

There's just something about my Dad's eyes in this picture that totally captures my attention.  I have always loved my Dad's eyes and I was lucky enough to inherit his baby blues. His eyes in this picture are full of life! They look very loving and almost proud as he is snuggling his new grandbaby. To me, it seems that they are  twinkling with delight. I especially love the little smile lines on the edges of his eyes showing a life of love and hard work.

Camilla loves spending time with family, as this picture shows so well. I love how she plays pretend, but I admire how intently Uncle Chris is playing pretend with miss Camilla, causing her face to light up with happiness and love. He's such a great Uncle!

Lastly, I love how Hyrum is sitting so calm and cozy in his Grandpa's arms, and how his sock is half falling off.
What a great night that was!
