Sharing the chaos is what we do…
In: Family
8 Sep 2009I can’t remember the last time we had a FULL 3 1/2 day weekend, and Jason was home for all of it! (This starts his busier time of year, so usually he has to take one of those days off at some later time.)
Anyway, it was so fun to have him come home early Friday, walk with me to pick up the girls from school, and have multiple outings over the course of the weekend. Although I felt bad turning down a few get-togethers from friends, it was nice to have a full weekend of doing stuff with just our family! On Saturday, we went to Castle Rock State Park, took a short hike to a bunch of really cool (huge) rocks to climb on, in, and through. It was a perfect “little” adventure for a man with a permanently gimped foot, a pregnant woman, and 2 5-year-olds. We then came home to watch a FABULOUS BYU football game!
And on Monday, we went to IKEA, which was not nearly as crowded as I expected, so the girls were able to go in the play area, while Jason and I wandered around the store. (So, a good time was had by all- except for Kendall who wasn’t ready to leave.) After IKEA, we went miniature golfing. It took Kendall a good 6 or 7 holes to stop picking up our balls and just moving them because… well, because.
We had a great weekend, which was concluded by a trip to Dairy Queen, and root beer floats after dinner. Here’s a little video Jason edited of our weekend.
It's tough to summarize who we are and what this blog is about in only a few sentences - so I won't. Read the posts, check out the pictures... you'll catch on!
