End of Week Two . . .and a Sleepover!

Grandson #1, Dillon (who starts first grade next week), is now sleeping soundly at Mom and Dad's house after a full evening of having Grandpa and Grandma to himself.  There were models built using K'Nex, plenty of talk of Transformers (a favorite now for a year), and likely a game of Monopoly.  When he found out I had a few boxes in the garage of Star Wars toys, it suddenly became VERY important to visit Portland, Oregon.

Auntie Mary wasn't too happy to find out he had never seen the original Looney Toons with Bugs Bunny, Yosemite Sam, and Marvin the Martian.  Trust me, that will change.   And soon.  I may be shopping at CostCo tomorrow and bringing a "Back to School" present when I visit next weekend.

Dad had a good end to the week.  The onset of a headache yesterday was responding well to a tylenol and some ice, and he felt good enough to have a 6 year-old spend the night.  So that has to tell you something!  Today marked the end of week two of radiation.  Dad continues to have a positive attitude, which is fantastic!  Keep it up!

Off to watch the spectacular Olympic Opening Ceremonies from Beijing.
