WOW! sounds like quite the week. I am glad to hear that Grandpa is doing good... i was really worried about him... so whats going to happen with the Jensen house hold now?
Glad to hear that every one is ok. Dad told me Danes profound statement about Grandma being able to walk and jump and skip again.
this week was awesome ( all things considered) but i'll keep it real short. Zone meeting, Zone conference, meet with president, Interview with president, food at a great mexican place. FOund 2 new investigators... Exchanges. Going to the temple today.
As far as things i remember about grandma:
"Now save some for the other Kids!"
"Now dont wreck that TV"
"What do ya got over there? a pair of sevens well that won't do" - when we would play cover-your-butt, or golf or go fish or rumikub
"Now what was trump again?".....oh yes thats right"
"Do we have enough chairs?"- every family dinner .... EVERY
"You have the most beautiful voice i have ever heard"- hahah yah ok grandma. Time to get you off them pills!
Quilts... so many quilts
"Well I remember when me and uncle keith would walk to school..."- or whatever it was her and keith were doing.
"And my dad owned a house down at the Y for us kids to go to school"
the next two go together...
"Now if you go down to my room and on the blue chair there is my purse..."- oh yah you knew it was pay day!
"And inside that purse is a pack of mints. could you get me them?" -Well played grandma well played.
these are some simple memories i have
And obviously: her wheel chair
lifting her up the stairs
cruising around in the power chair
chocolate bar game
money in birthday cards
weird inappropriate grandma jokes... ya know typical Jean move
going to waterton and her being worried about every piece of wildlife that we saw... "now be careful around that deer"...
Seeing her and grandpa fall asleep together in the wierdest public places
When we went to the movie The Croods and after she asked..." Did you guys follow what was happening? cuz i sure didn't" hahah good ol' Jean
well this is all i have time for.
but on monday i will have regular email time again.
lots of love
Elder Jensen
