Just Like George

Remember when George H.W. Bush went skydiving on his 80th birthday--and then again on his 85th?  My dad did something similar two days ago, on his 71st.  No, he didn't jump out of an airplane, but he did jump...
 ...on our trampoline!  :)
That was a first for him.
 "First AND last," he said when he stood on solid ground again with shaky legs.
With this kind of adventurous behavior when he turned 71, who knows what craziness Dad will be getting himself into by his 80th?  I'd better go reserve his spot on that skydiving trip in 2020!  ;-)

    How wonderful that he wanted to get in and try it.

    What a great Grandpa! You can just see how thrilled your boys are to have him in there with them.
