Grandpa Georgia

Grandpa Georgia came into town on Halloween. As I mentioned before, Joshua & Shawn went to the Lancaster Airport to pick him up and Joshua enjoyed spending time with him that night. But, the Bean got sick then so we didn't see Grandpa at all on Sunday. On Monday, I took Dad to get his car (which is why he came up in the first place on such short notice). Then I went to school and Shawn came home to be with the boys. Grandpa brought treats for the kiddos for Halloween and Joshua put back on his costume to show him. 
Tuesday night Shawn stayed home with the kids, and I went with Dad to a repo auction since a house in our neighborhood was up on the auction block. REDC has auctions everywhere (including GA) so we wanted to see how it worked. We first stopped at Applebee's and grabbed some supper and then headed to the auction. We had a really fun time there, checking out what prices things went for compared to their value, etc. We didn't buy anything, but it was still fun. Wednesday we went to breakfast with Dad at his favorite greasy spoon restaurant and then we wished him a safe journey home. 
The kids really enjoyed seeing him, even though they didn't see him all that much with their sickness. Thankfully he didn't get it (even though my sister's family was also sick). Soon it was time to get ready for more visitors...
