Well, over Memorial Weekend, Jessica and Colby had the opportunity to come down and visit the rest of the gang! Jeff was as excited as ever to get to go to Lake Mead on not just Saturday, but on Monday too. As vacation time drew nearer, however, weather reports got worse and worse. Everyone became disappointed, especially Jeff, as he announced that it would be too cold to go on Saturday, but if the weather held true, we could maybe sneak a trip on Monday. But, low and behold, the weather was not nice to us, and we didn't get to go to the lake. Instead we enjoyed a weekend of painting Jillian's new bedroom(she got to pick the colors, so compliment her on her excellent choice), hosting birthday parties for Jordanne, Amilya Fae, and Jocee(all at one time), and going hiking on one of grandpa McArthur's(oh it's not that hard) type of hike. Of course Jeff led it, but I don't think he realizes how much he is like his father-in-law!! During the hike, we all tried to get Kato to go down this 12 foot drop, like we all were doing. He followed after Jordanne and completely fell down the whole way, almost taking Jordanne with him! His trust in her was destroyed right in that single moment in time. He wouldn't go down any of the other smaller drops, so, we ended up dragging him down, or Jeff would pick him up and hand him off to Colby. Needless to say, after our "little" hike, Kato needed a bath, so Jillian ended out the day trying to bathe him!!! Unfortunately we could only get some after shots of that little experience!

That was too bad about the weather. It always seems to come at the worst time. . . but I guess I can't complain because we need it so desperatly. You guys made the best of the weekend though and did some fun things. I'll have to come and check out the newly painted room. I'm sure it looks fabulous!
It's about time!!! Not that I haven't thoroughly enjoyed the exact same blog for the past who knows how long. : ) Jilly . . . when are you coming to stay with us?? We can come and get you any time. School is OUT!! YEA!!
Great job Jill, I can't believe you gave Kato a bath, he is such an out of control hyper dog! (Just the right kind to fit into our family)
