Boise visit to Grandpa Gary, Grandma Sally, and Uncle Phil

Joe's dad Gary had to have both hips opperated on again in December. Unfortunately when they were removing the old hardware they found infection in both hips. So he had to stay at a facility to recuperate and heal so they can go back in to replace the hardware. We waited until we were all feeling healthy so we didn't share our bugs and drove 5.5 hr drive to Boise. All in all the kiddos did pretty good. We got dvd players for Christmas for long trips like this, however Addie and especially Jojo aren't old enough to enjoy watching TV yet.

It was fun for Jojo to meet his Grandma Sally and Uncle Phil for the first time, and for Addie to see them again. It always amazes me how fast they warm up to Sally. I think her animated facial expressions are so similar to Joe's that they automatically feel that they know her.

We were able to visit Grandpa Gary a couple of times and bring him some dinner (greatly needed after being in the facility for a couple of months!!) and treats. Considering his situation, he is amazingly optimistic and only had positive things to say. He's a great example to all of us.

She's wearing all of the bows Aunt Rachel gave her....She'll wear a bow for a couple of minutes, just to take them all out. Lol, what a silly cutie pie.

I wanted to show that she does sometimes let me do her hair, SOMETIMES!
