Krampus

I just want to know if I'm the only one who remembers hiding under the kitchen table after hearing the story of Krampus from Grandpa? I was so scared to move or do anything bad. Krampus scared the crap out of me when I was younger and now scares Kayl just the same.

Oh Grandpa!

I have quite a few memories of fun times with Grandpa but nothing holds a memory better than a picture!

Burnt Meat and a Flood

One great memory that I have is when Grandpa Frank came down to stay with us while Mom and Dad went out of town. I don't remember where they went.
Anyway, Grandpa Frank decided to make us kids spaghetti. I remember we were all really excited to have Grandpa staying with us so we all got caught up playing with him that he forgot that the ground beef was on the stove and it burnt really bad. I think some of us tried to pick out some good pieces and add them to the spaghetti. Needless to say there was not much to go around.

I think that it was the same trip down to our house to watch us that a pipe burst in our basement and flooded it. I'm not sure if it was Sarah or Emily who, when they stood on the wet carpet for the first time, said "Did Grandpa wet the bed!"
Fun times in the Heiss home trying to clean that mess up.Wet carpet smell is so gross!
