Saturday, the question that kept being heard around the Spicer house was, "What time are we going to Grandpa's?". Sounds like an easy question, right? Wrong. With the boys (most of them) going to Grandpa Sheppard's house, and the girls going to Grandpa Spicer's, it got kind of confusing. All of the kids loaded in the car, we took off. The kids go to Grandpa Sheppard's house a lot, but this is the first time they have gone to Grandpa Spicer's house since Grandma passed away. Grandpa (the one who had the girls) took them out to eat at K&W, then to Big Lots to get some school stuff on Saturday. They took Grandpa's friend Barbara with them. Then on Sunday, they went to church, and to the mountains (again with Barbara) to see Grandpa's mother, then to Kabuto's for dinner. The other Grandpa (the one with the boys) just got to hang out. Video games, a swimming pool, a basketball game - what else could boys want?
I am glad all the kids (except Cole) got to have a great weekend with Grandpa. Just don't ask which one.
"Grandpa Whichone?" is a phrase I am hoping to avoid forever with our family. Thankfully, the grands Dane has have all been good sports.
ReplyDeleteOUR beloved Pop Pop passed away 4 years ago today, by the way. A fabulous and fitting term of endearment, I'd say. Definitely "Pop Pop"ish spirit and personality... =) May he rest in peace until we meet again.
HAHAHA - Could you imagine EVER calling Pop Pop "Grandpa"?!! I think he'd be insulted! Then again, this coming from one Aunt Freak...
