Trip with Grandpa!

Jeff had to head out of town for work all last week and my mom was on a business trip too, so my dad and I decided to take a trip to St. George and visit family. The kids were really excited to take a trip with Grandpa and see their cousins. My sister was brave and had me help her bottle some apricot jam... it was seriously my first time ever even attempting to bottle anything.. it was actually really fun!


It's always tons of fun for the kids at Aunt Jen's house. She got an inflatable waterslide/ swimming pool at Costco and we got it out for the kids to play on... they LOVED it!


Thanks for letting us hang out Jen!! So glad that Grandpa wanted to take a trip!! We had lots of fun, but were more than ready for Jeff to be home! The kids definitely missed their Daddy!!
( I know! I'm a dork, but we had lots of fun making this card for him!)

That is clever. Jason is gone all this week so maybe we will do one of those for his welcome home. Way to go on the bottling jam. You are officially a domestic goddess!!

I LOVE apricot jam! Way to go! I haven't bottled anything ever... I wish I knew how though. I love the water slide pics, and what a cute candybar card! I am sure he loved it.

Wow Jen is such a homemaker, I have never bottled jam. Maybe I will have her teach me. I had heard about that waterslide, it looks way fun!
