meyer family updates....: While Mom's away.....

I went to KC last weekend with my mom, sis, and Iz. We had a blast shopping at Legends, eating, and hanging in the hotel.

While I was gone, Jared went above and beyond to make sure and CW had fun, and it was plain adorable :). He moved the TV out to the patio on Saturday so he and Caden could be outside and watch the football game. Mind you our TV is mounted to the wall, so it wasn't a quick task by any means. Then, he made a little fire pit and built a fire for he and Caden. How cute is that?!?!

Saturday morning while Jared worked Caden hung with Grandma and Grandad. They are SUCH wonderful grandparents to him. They took him to breakfast, to see Great-Grandma James, and to Pioneers park. Here's his recap:

Caden, did you have fun with Grandma and Grandad?

"Ya, I did. We went to McDonalds and got bacon. Grandad didn't let me have eggs. We went to Great-Grandma's at she house. We went to park where daddy ran. Me and Grandma ran. I beat she."

I got clarification from Sherry a bit :). They didn't go to McD's for breakfast, but he did have bacon. And the meal he ordered didn't have eggs, but grandma and grandad's did. And, they went to Pioneers park and Sherry told him that his Daddy used to run cross-country there. He doesn't forget anything.

Sunday morning they were up early, Jared said they actually could have went to first service at 9:00. But time got away from them I guess and suddenly it was 10:40 and they were just leaving for 10:30 service :). So, they went and got donuts and played at the park instead. Caden's recap??

(As he is on the letter 2 steps below Jared while Jared paints the house.....told you he was patient :)).....

"Ya, we not go to church today cuz daddy messed up." (Haha, Jared told him he'd messed up on time so they wouldn't make it.)

"We just got donguts (donuts). It's okay. We can go to church another day, because it's God." I'm sure Jared talked to him about it being okay missing, but of course his interpretation is cuter :). Love it.

Did you watch the football game?
"Ya, we did. I like games. Go Big Red Huskers. And we build a big fir-er. I love fir-ers. Do you wike fir-ers mom?"

That night he and I went and got s'mores stuff so he and daddy could show me their fire and make s'mores together. He insisted we buy "marsh-a-woa's". He's so delicous :). So that night we had a family campfire.
