Grandpa

The boys (and I) had a visitor today. Grandpa Jim drove up for the day from Aurora, and I think the day was a pretty good success. We haven't seen Grandpa since Christmas, so you never know what to expect from a 2 year old and 3.5 year old. But.... No meltdowns , no shy "Who is this guy?" moments, no major disobedience, just fun! How cool!!!

Grandpa came prepared, with a balsa wood airplane to put together and fly, and a book which he remembers from his childhood. Both were hits with the boys, but I'm sure you know which got more attention... Yeah, the plane. After repeated attempts to fly it, we decided the wind was better suited to kites, so we got those out (but forgot to take pictures)!

Getting ready for flight...
Grandpa and Trevor ready to launch the plane....
Break time for a story....
"Let's launch the plane from up here, Grandpa!"
And it flies.....
And it crashes....


Good times, good times! Thanks for making the drive up to visit Grandpa... come back anytime!!
