The Leckie family traveled to America from Scotland because their wee boy had been here for six months. Having him here was a great excuse to hop across that pond and take a gander at our larger than life country.

Here are some pics from our time at Graceland.

And a few more:

While the Leckies were here, we also traveled to Tupelo, MS to see the birthplace of Elvis:

Grant had his picture taken next to a statue of Elvis…what an unfortnate hand placement. LOL

I’m trying hard not to be sad. Grant was so excited to go home to see his mates and the rest of his family. And he’ll even be back in America next spring, so I know I’ll see him again. But it’s actually harder sending him home now that I’ve met his parents. To borrow a phrase from Grant, they were tremendous! I loved them and now I can’t wait until I can visit with them again. Better start planning my trip now!
