Not to many kids can say that they got to hang out with their Great-Grandpa over Christmas break but, the Schwitzer kids can! We were so happy to have Grandpa Harvey stay with us for a week at our home. We loved having him around and it was such a fun week. Grandpa read for hours with the kids. Lucy loved him and would bring book after book for him to read to her. He told stories about his childhood and serving during World War II. He did a bunch of puzzles with the kids also. I loved listening to Mike and Grandpa talk about the scriptures together. It seemed every morning they sat down and talked about a scripture. Mike and I loved just talking with him. They were so many nights we were all up late just talking about life. He had such good advice for us and we loved hearing his opinion on things. There were lots of political talks, watching Fox News, and watching debates. We love Grandpa so much! He makes everyone around him feel so comfortable and makes you feel like the most important person to him. He loves the gospel and has such a strong testimony. Because of Grandpa Harvey the Schwitzer family are members of the church. He is a convert which makes him solid! Mike and I are so happy we got this special time with him and it will be a Christmas our family will never forget.
One night he told the kids the Rocky Fairy story. The kids absolutely loved the story and watching the frog puppet show. This was a fun night! We skyped in Greg and JoAnn so they could join in the fun.
We went to Temple Square and braved the cold. Grandpa was a trooper and made it to see the lights!
