My Grandpa Clark turned 89 while we were there. He isn't used to having very many people around. It is usually just him by himself and then the neighbor guy comes over everyday to help him with his meds and check up on him. My dad also flies down about every other month for a weekend to help his dad and check on the properties.
So since he isn't used to people and kids, especially, we try not to bother grandpa too much. We go in an say hello and that we love him and then we have the kids play outside.
My dad went and got him a cake and and ice cream cake and we got him to come outside to sit with all of us.
We all sang Happy Birthday and had some cake. After we were done eating before my grandpa went back inside we had each of the kids give him a hug. We reminded them to give a soft gentle hug and the kids were so sweet.
After that grandpa went back inside and the kids continued to have fun play outside in the nice cool Oregon weather. They all had so much fun playing together and on the sand rail.
