Hi Grandpa!

This week Grandpa's work sent him to San Francisco. This means when he finished today, we got to pick him up and take him to our house for a long weekend! What he came to California to do was pretty tiring, so today we just took it easy, rested and caught up. We made him lots of homemade meals since he's been eating out every day this week. Ella is happy to have a new audience to show off each of her toys, books, crafts and tricks to. Ella also has been making our parenting responsibilities pretty easy as each thing she needs help with (from rocking before bed to pushing up her Go-Gurt to reading the Bible to building towers) she says, "Grandpa do it."

Grandpa reads "Goodnight Chicago" is his good Chicago accent.

Grandpa, like most everyone, has no trouble making Delia smile.

Oh, the childhood memories...Dave vs. Dad in Stratego

I wish that I could be there too! Have a wonderful weekend. Dad can give Ella and Delia all of my love, too. Do you know that we have had similar weather - 40's, cloudy and rainy? The only thing - as Jen pointed out - is that your weather only lasts for one month, and then you begin Spring. Enjoy your time together. Love, MOM

Ahhhh,

Stratego... a favorite of my family growing up too. We put together tournaments even! I used to put my flag up in the first row behind the lake and throw bombs around it. Everybody always went straight to the back to find the flag. Muhahahahaha. Yeah, I usually lost pretty fast, to be honest.
