Grandpa Woody

 

Grandpa Woody came to town with his van full. Russian storybooks, a pressure cooker, a bread maker, laffy taffy for the boys, chocolate for me, a rocket launcher (more on that later) and... a wii! Noah and Gage were so excited. With all of that how could we not have a great weekend? Loaded with good food and good fun. 

 

Every morning at 9:30 Sybil would fall asleep in Grandpa's arms.  At Gage's soccer game, at church, at home. She couldn't resist.

One afternoon we went to Temple Square. My dad's one request - a roast beef sandwich at the Nauvoo cafe. Very tasty, indeed. 

 

Another afternoon we headed to the park with Grandpa's homemade rocket launcher.  Water bottles, a bike pump and pvc pipe.

Noah listened intently to the lesson on pressure and arc and cosigns from his engineer Grandfather. And he diligently watched the gauge until 60 lbs of pressure was pumped. Then Noah and Gage would both squeal as the rocket was launched really high, spraying water as it went. And I mean REALLY HIGH.

Thanks for coming Grandpa! We love you!!
