Grandparents Day

Filed under: Home — bsloterbeek @ 6:22 pm

So I went to my children’s grandparents day program at church today to film the festivities for my parents now in Gulfport, MS.  Also in attendance was Lauren, Grandma and Grandpa Heuker, and Aunt Kim (Nana’s Sister and honorary Nana stand-in for the morning).  It was a pretty good program complete with the really loud Over zealous Pre-schooler, and the mischievous boys.  The girls did a great job with the songs and the motions.

The only unusual experience was driving there.  One of the grandparents apparently really couldn’t wait to get there.  We were arriving early (we even beat my mother-in-law which means very early) and as we rounded the corner, another car swerved back and forth behind me as if to pass me.  Then when we got on the straight away he zipped around me and floored it the next .1 of a mile to the drive way and shot into the parking lot.  I was like 2 secs behind him.  Did he really need to zip around me.  I actually made it to my seat before he did.  I was a good dooby though and kept my mouth shut.  What a jerk!  Get a grip cause it’s only Grandparent’s day.  He ended up standing during the whole program and probably zipped right out before even seeing his grandkid, but I am being too judgmental.  But he did put me in an irritated mood for the whole program.

Here are some pictures:

  2. I really have to start reading what I typed before I post it. Someone should put spell check on these things.
    Smiles!

  4. I always think about that on my way to church. I am usually in a rush when I drive somewhere, but I don’t want to cut off or tail gate someone, only to turn into the church parking lot together. As I get closer to church I watch my driving a little more. :)
