Opa and Oma Visit

Opa and Oma came for a visit, and we were so happy to see them! Sabrina had been talking about them coming for weeks. They were there for graduation, and I felt very flattered they would make the trip to see me graduate. Of course they are always looking for an excuse to play with their grandkids, too. 
This at Bodo's Bagels. We tried to go to our favorite breakfast place in town, but they didn't open until an hour later on Saturdays, so we went to Bodo's instead. It's a Charlottesville classic, so it seemed appropriate since our time here is winding up fast. Everybody seemed to think it was alright. 
A visit by Opa and Oma brought out the best in our ballet moves. 
Having somebody to entertain the kids during graduation was a lifesaver. They took a little break and then were back in it in time to see me receive my diploma. 
The kids were sad to see their Oma and Opa go, but we reassured them that they will see them again very soon.

Here is a video of Opa the Great's feats of magic. I didn't get the beginning of the first trick, and I have tried to edit the video so as not to give away any secrets, just in case other grandchildren might be watching. I apologize if the editing is a little choppy.
