I've been spending lots of time with these two, Parker and Spence. Being home has been so nice. Seeing my family and spending time with them is just the best.
The other night my grandparents took my mom, Spence and me out to eat dinner at our favorite Mexican Restaurant. Half-way through the dinner my grandmother starts telling us she got new shoes (for new readers, my grandmother has Alzheimer) and proceeds to lift her leg up on to the table to show off her new shoes. She then starts to tell the story of how she bought the new shoes and trying them on. I should also tell you that my grandmother lost her leg to diabetes about 4 years, but she has such a great attitude about it. So she tells us the salesperson brought her the shoes from the back and then she needed a different size, so he went to go grab the other size. When he came back my grandmother had taken off her leg and had it sitting in her lap. She said it was easier to get shoes on and off of it that way... poor salesman.
She is just hilarious, and we never know what she is going to do next, but she keeps us on our toes. The best part of the whole story was that my grandmother told it to us acting like she didn't know what the big deal was about taking her leg off. Yes, cause seeing someone take their artificial leg off is soo common, haha.
Just a fun little story, hopefully it made sense and wasn't offensive.
How are you all spending your holidays? Any funny stories?
