While I was searching through the old photos today (getting sidetracked from packing), I discovered a hilarious picture of my grandpa and I when I was a baby. I then remembered that there was yet another Genea-Bloggers Carnival on funny images – and I knew I just had to share it.

Now, this picture was taken in 1989, when I was only a few months old. My mom took me to visit my grandpa in the hospital. He was sick and suffering from Alzhiemers, but seeing me seemed to brighten up his days since my grandma had passed away the year before. The family often gathered around his bedside, bringing him trinkets and asking him to tell stories from his childhood.

In the picture, you’ll see my aunt holding me as she sat on my grandpa’s bed. Look closely at what my grandpa is reading – it is pretty funny!

Did you see it?! When I first discovered this picture a few years back (I was about 11), I was all giggles. When she told me that she was the one who bought it for her, my expression turned to shock and suprise. (If you can’t tell what it is – he is reading a Playboy Magazine…Blogger seemed to make the picture blurry)

“Well, what else do you get an old man who is dying?!” she replied.

Alright – so there you have it. My submission for a funny picture.
