DEAR JILLIAN

dear jilly:

this weekend stanley and aubrey went to the hospital to visit grandpa....he wasn't feeling too good.....

stanley climbed up on the hospital sign.....it was sort of windy so aubrey held onto stanley so he wouldn't blow away.....

stanley and aubrey hop up on grandpa's bed....grandpa had an IV in his arm to help him with the pain....if there was a wheelchair sitting around in the hallway i was going to take stanley for a ride but there was none to be found.........

before we left the hospital we snapped a picture of stanley on this really really cool mobile....some area students had made the oragami cranes and hung them all together....

(if you look out the window to the left there you will see aunt shirley and uncle floyd.....they had come to visit grandpa too!)

well that is it for now....

next post will be pictures of the field trip stanley took to aubrey's school....she took him for show and tell and took a disposable camera with her....(sorry....didn't trust her with out good camera!) as soon as i develop the pictures (yes, it's film....quite old fashioned) i will post some pictures for you.

we have many things to see before it is time to pack flat stanley up and send him back to you.....we have to make a trip to the mighty mississippi river, probably head to john deere commons to see some tractors....and whatever else seems to strike our fancy.....
