A Case of the Mondays

We went to Lansing today to see my Mom and Dad and then to my Grandma's to visit. Cathie was able to open the Christmas presents that she missed out on due to her Christmas flu. We headed over to my Grandma's to visit and showed her the pictures from Christmas and New Years, since she was sick as well. The girls had put together a photo album for my Grandma a while back that had pictures of her life dating back to her childhood and following her all the way through until now. I sat down with the kids and took them through some of their history, including a lot of their relatives, including their Great Grandpa, that they never got to meet.

We got back just in time to head out and meet up with Will and Monaca to go see the new Johnny Knoxville movie The Ringer, about a guy who tries to rig the special olympics. It was a good movie, but kind of uncomfortable at times. It portrayed all of the special needs people in a great light, but some of the stuff was just akward to watch in the movie. Probably worth waiting for video. We ended up going to the Brighton Grille for dinner, which was excellent.
