Emory's great-granpa Joe was in town for a couple of weeks after escaping Hurrican Ike. They had to evacuate so they came up to live with Mike and Marsha for a couple of weeks. We had several opportunities to spend some time with them. My favorite.....Gorilla time.
Granpa Joe kept Emory entertained with "Granpa Gorilla" during lunch at Jalepeno Tree and then again one night while watching the Cowboy game. He makes a great Monkey face (as seen above), then beats his chest and flails his arms like a gorilla. Emory in turn had to give him her rendition of "Monkey Face".....and then tried to make Granpa (Mike) join in on the fun. Yes, you missed out.
That evening as we were heading home, Jody turned on the Cowboy game and then quickly turned it off when he realized what was going on......sweet little Em was singing her Bible songs in a soft sweet whisper....we listened to our own concert all the way home......My favorite "Oh How I love Jesus"...makes me cry with her sweet little voice. Anyway, her concerts are much better than a game any day.....and you know I like games!

You're right! Sweet little voiced concerts do win...hands down! I love the pics of her and Grandpa "Gorilla"! This is too cute and what a cherished memory! I have always adored Jan and Joe! I am glad that y'all were able to spend sometime with them, despite the concerns of Ike!
