Last week we had the good fortune and fun of a visit from Airplane Grandpa! The kids had a great time. I think _everyone_ needed a nap after the visit.

This is Dad playing "hangman" on a whiteboard with the kids. They loved it! Drew stumped Dad with "why". But then after that, Drew's chosen word always rhymed with whatever Dad had picked on the previous round.

Dad came to visit so Andy and I could go to a corporate black tie dinner -- the Goddard Memorial dinner. Two thousand people were there. The meal was exquisite-- they announced a special dispensation from the diocese for all Catholics so we were able to enjoy both the scallops and the beef tenderloin they served for dinner. Oh yeah, and dessert too!

Here's a pic of Andy and me before we left...
