BAGELS AND GRANDPAS

Today we decided to eat lunch out. The kids wanted bagels so we headed to Einstein Bros. On the way home somebody sneezed, which launched us into a conversation about sneezing. This soon turned into observations about how different each person's sneeze can be, which inevitably led right up to the grandpas. Brit said, "Isn't it weird how different the two grandpas are from each other? I mean one grandpa is completely hairless, while the other one has been mistaken for Bigfoot. One grandpa is tall but not muscular, the other one is short and pretty ripped. And one grandpa sneezes really quiet and small, while the other one sneezes so loud you think your eardrums might burst." It's true too! When Grandpa Ellis sneezes, you are almost afraid to look over at him afterwards, because it seems quite possible his head has exploded! Brit is sure that if he stuck bullets up his nose, he could shoot better than with a rifle. Then Kaylee reminded us of Grandpa Kent's hiccups. When he lived with us he used to get these horrible hiccups that sounded just like he was trying to vomit! By this time we were having a pretty good laugh, and such conversations eventually will lead to flatulence, so I'll stop here. Grandpas are great, and it's fun to have a diverse group of grandads in our family to keep us entertained and spoiled rotten!
