(although we gave it to uncle kevin bc the boys at the time were afraid) great post and photos jen & dave! i love the topic of traditions!

He occasionally would go to Chicago, and he'd bring us back these crazy flat potato chips that came in a can... Pringles, anyone? My dad didn’t travel much.

I also got Princess Leah and Luke Skywalker dolls that were bigger than Barbies. Those actually came from the airport store because he was in such a hurry on his business trip that year, he forgot my travel gift. If I would have kept them in good condition, they would have made a big contribution to my savings account current day. I can only imagine what they would be worth. My Grandmother is from Germany and that is where the best travel gifts came from. I sure do miss those days...
