Grandpa Whitley came to visit us a week or so ago from Illinois. He got in very late on a Sunday night and stayed until Thursday afternoon. On Monday, since the kids had school, we went to get the big kids and take them to lunch since they had already left before Grandpa woke up. We went to Arby's and then a quick stop at Costco before taking them back. That night we all went to see the kids do their final performance of Camp Rock.
The next day the kids had the play during the day for field trip kids to come watch so Glade took Grandpa golfing. I don't know exactly how it went but they came home in one piece! That night Glade and I had our final marriage class so Granpa got left for dinner duty. He made his famous Maid Rite sandwiches. I wolfed one down as I went out the door and it was delicious!
On Wednesday we let the kids play hookie from school and went for a hike in the San Tans. It was a really pretty day to be out and we were able to make it up and back with only one skinned knee. That night we went to the pumpkin patch farm and corn maze. It rained on us just enough to get everyone wet. I think everyone had a really good time though.
Thursday we mostly just kind of hung out till it was time to take him to the airport. It wasn't terribly exciting and adventurous, but it was really nice to see him and have him with us for a short time. Unfortunately he just got to join in to our crazy daily lives for a bit. We sure wish Grandma could have made it with him!!
