Bye Jared

We said good bye to Jared a few days ago. We tried to get him to stay longer, but he had things to get back to. So in the cold, at a very early hour I took him to the airport. We were all sad to see him go, but I think Dayton and his friends took it the hardest. Jared and Dayton were good buddies, wrestling or playing guns at some point every day. They even walked to Burger King one day for lunch. And the neighborhood kids always seemed to trap him into some game they made up. The day he left one of the little boys came over and asked, "hey, where is that big boy"?

Camrie, who was a little shy at first hardly left Jared alone. She would crawl over and pull the plug on his computer, or start pushing any button she could reach. But her favorite thing to do was try to get his food or drink. He learned real fast that anything on the ground was hers.

We tried to keep him entertained while he was here, and although there was a lot of down time he did get out some. He and Kyle played basketball, tennis, we went out to eat,(Cafe Rio our favorite place), and he and Kyle went to a Jazz game. We tried to take him sledding in the mountains, but there was no snow, so we went for a nice drive through them.

We are so glad he came to see us and hope he comes again soon. But next time Dayton wants you to bring presents for him like grandma does!
