Mom and Dad were here last weekend (Mar. 27-30) and we had a wonderful time. They came down to listen to me deliver my House of Learning Lecture on the role of higher education in the Church. When they got to the library auditorium there were only a few people in the seats but we were all pleasantly surprised by how many people were in the seats by the end of my lecture. I thought the lecture went pretty well but was starting to get hoarse at the end of it. Forty minutes is a long time to talk under the bright lights. After the talk Dad took Chantel, Mom and me over to the Creamery to get ice cream--yummy. Friday we got the kids out of school a little early and Dad took us all bowling in the Wilkinson Center while Mom went to see Grandma and Sylvia. Peter Gordon and Emily used a ramp to help them bowl and love it. Becca and Hannah were delighted that they came in second and third behind Grandpa Pete while beating Mom and Dad. We had a lot of fun. Saturday we all went miniature golfing at Trafalga and had a blast. It is always fun when Grandma and Grandpa come visiting. Unfortunately I forgot to take my camera both bowling and mini-golfing.
Emily wasn't too sure about Grandpa but warmed up to him just in time for him to leave. In fact Sunday afternoon she kept going around asking for "Gran-Pa." This picture is great because Dad was reading her and Peter Gordon a story but Emily would not sit on his lap. Instead she hauled her stool over and stood next to them. Silly girl.
