Grandpa and Grandma R. stopped by for a visit Saturday on their way to Tara and Steve's house. Grandpa was released from the hospital last week, and had just a few days at home before heading to Utah. We are getting him into the Huntsman Cancer Institute, so he needs to be close by in case he has any troubles and needs to get to the hospital. We are glad he will be getting the best treatment possible, and also will be close to us. It was so good to see him and Grandma. He looks great, and has a cute bald head. We went to church with them on Sunday and hung out at Tara and Steve's house. Grandpa has decided to be baptized on Wednesday, and we are thrilled! He had the missionary discussions while at the hospical in Washington. He seems very humbled by his illness, and grateful for the support he has received from his family. Really they have been great! They have always had someone with him and Grandma. So many people have stepped up to help. While Tara was with them for the past 2 weeks, aunt Jana stayed with her kids. Charity's mother-in-law flew in from Georgia and stayed with her kids when she went to Washington. Sena missed a lot of work to be with Grandpa, and made it possible for her son Jayson to spend time with his Grandpa before leaving on his mission last week. The list goes on. We love you Grandpa.
Rob's Grandma came up from Price to see her son. She is so glad to have him close enough for her to visit! We are too.
Grandpa's sister Debbie came with Great Grandma.
Grandpa's other sister Diane and her husband Tom came up as well. Grandma with Diane

We celebrated Grandpa (65), Madi (3), and Sarah's (4) birthday.
The kids always have a great time playing together. They enjoyed eating apples right off the tree.

Oh my word! Weren't we just talking about this? I'm in shock! We're so happy for you Grandpa R! I dare say he looks REALLY GOOD! The bald head gives him a youthful glow. Congrats on the baptism, you will find yourself so close to the Lord through the companionship of the Spirit. Way to go!
