A Weekend With Dad

I was at meetings all day Friday and Saturday at a Wilton Cake Decorating Instructor Meeting. The meetings were held in Salt Lake both days. Jon had taken Thursday and Friday off of work to make grape juice. So, we made grape juice all day Thursday so he and the kids could come to Salt Lake with me on Friday and have fun together. It worked out perfect that the kids were out of school for Fall Break too. Jon started by taking the kids to the zoo.
They loved getting to see the new BABY elephant!
Next they went to Liberty Park to play on the swings.
We all enjoy the last good weather days of the fall.
Then to visit Aunt Robin and Aunt Denise.
They are so loving and always spoil us with treats!


Jon and the kids didn't come with me to Salt Lake on saturday. Alex's friend was getting baptized and he wanted to go to that. So, Jon took them on a bike ride to the lake and did some fishing with them. It was a tiring ride (that Jon swears he'll never do it again without me there to help). He is so great with the kids. I'm so glad he's such a great dad. My kids are so lucky...and so am I!

Jon's Been Busy

Jon LOVES homemade grape juice. He LOVES it so much that he took a few days off work to can his own! Our wonderful neighbor offered her grapes to us and Jon worked at steaming it into juice all day and most of the night. He's so great! He ended up with 47 quarts of grape juice. That's almost 12 gallons!
