We had a fun weekend in Mountain Home with the Jenks Family! We left Thursday afternoon and picked up Grandma Packer. About 20 miles away from our destination, we had a huge adventure - the van broke down! We had to wait about an hour for the tow truck to come and you and Triston were bouncing all over the place. When the tow truck finally came at 9:30, you and Connor were so excited to ride in it and enjoyed it for about 5 minutes before you both fell asleep. But, you were excited to be at Quinton and Clara's!
Heather and Barry left Friday morning for a little get-a-way, so we had tons of fun with Grandma and Quinton and Clara. You all played outside for a long time and ran around the house and wrestled and played. Grandma and I made you "glow" jars and you ran around the house pretending that you had caught monsters in them. Saturday was spent playing more and Grandma and I made you a pajama eater - an animal to keep your pajamas in during the day. You got a doggy, Triston got a doggy, Quinton got a dinosaur and Clara got a caterpillar. You all loved them and ran around the house with them!
You had a great accomplishment on Saturday! You got on Clara's two-wheel bike, with training wheels, and you pedalled! I was in complete shock! It was your first time ever trying to pedal and you did it! I remember trying to teach Triston how to pedal and it was so hard and took several times and tries! I was dreading trying to teach you, but now I am excited for Spring to come so we can go on bike rides!
On Sunday, we went to Stake Conference and ended up sitting in the Relief Society room, which was kind of nice because it gave us a little bit more freedom. You 4 kids were really good for the whole two hours.
Because the van was a goner and needed a new engine, Grandpa Packer drove over and rescued us and we all drove home on Sunday afternoon. You were exhausted from all that playing and took a good, long nap!
