Grandpa having fun dancing with his grandchildren

These photos are out of order but I forgot to put them with the photos of our visit to Mike's home.



Grandpa was really getting into the music and the dance moves!

Grandpa and Grandma arrived in Littleton to spend a few days with Rob, Missy, Anne, Leah and Sarah.

We felt blessed to have driven over the Rockies on dry instead of snowy roads. Right after we arrived, we went to Anne's school to attend her Christmas music concert. It was wonderful to hear her sing a solo. She did a great job.









Anne loves to play the piano.

Spam, the Corn Snake

Anne's teacher needed a student to take care of his Corn snake during the Christmas holidays. Anne's name was picked out of a hat and she got to take "Spam" home for a few weeks. Spam has had a lot of attention and Anne, Leah and Sarah loved to hold him.

Fritz is wondering what creature has come into his home.













No one is afraid of "Spam."

Rob took us to the headquarters of Mapquest in Denver.

The chairs were so comfy I almost fell asleep.
