Grandpa

Grandpa came for a visit recently and was the mystery reader for my class.  It was great.  He read "Cactus Hotel" and told us all about the Saguaro cactus since he lives in Arizona.

This is a classic picture I've been taking with Grandpa my whole life.

Grandpa with all the kids.  Jonah is in a season of not liking being in pictures, so that's why he's a bit off to the side.  Right after this picture he ran off the couch to go play.  We did have quite an adventure while Grandpa was here, as he ended up being admitted to the hospital because he had some difficulty breathing.  After a few days in the hospital there was no clear diagnosis, but they let him go home.  The only hospital visit we expected was to see mummy & Julia, but we're always up for a hospital adventure!
