We got back tonight from spending the weekend with Grandpa. We always look forward to the visits & our Saturday night Phase 10 game. When we got there Friday night it was cold & had been raining. Grandpa was in his room settling in to watch the Jazz game. When we walked down the hall to his room we noticed that all the doors had been decorated for Valentine's Day. Each door had a red heart with the occupants name on it. Then the doors were decorated with small hearts & things that the person liked. (Art, the Jazz, music, etc.) Grandpa's door had a red heart that had Phase 10 cards attached to it. It was awesome! One of the local wards had made them for the residents & wanted them to be personalized. And the definitedly were. I am going to frame it for him.
When we left from the visit it was snowing hard. We woke to 6.5" of snow & the power was out!! That came back on, but the snow stopped about mid afternoon. It snowed again Saturday night. It was cold but, it is beautiful.
Saturday night we went to dinner with my cousin Wayne & his wife Marjie. Then headed to play cards with Grandpa. Needless to say, he won the game this time.
(This is a picture Brent took of him on Feb. 6, 2010. Note the card in the pocket!)
He was having such a great time & was definitely on top of his game. We all had fun. The weekends pass way too fast.
