John went elk hunting with some friends/coworkers. It seemed like a good opportunity for Aaron to have some Grandparent time, so we went to Grand Junction while he was in the mountains! They kept Aaron and I pretty busy while we were there. We went to the Dinosaur Museum where Aaron had fun being spit on by a Dilophosaurus. He also got to go on a hike where he was excited to see horses and play on rocks. He got to play with his friends Sophia and Lily while I caught up with Courtney. He played games and rode rides when Pops took him to Chuck e Cheese. And, of course, we went to the park several times.
One of our last days there Mom and I took Aaron to the pumpkin patch. It was a really nice one! Lots of animals, a big slide, a pony ride and a bump and jump! Aaron loved the slide and seeing all the animals. The bump and jump was a hit. He loved laying down and having us bounce him. He picked out a couple of pretty nice pumpkins too! Needless to say, Aaron had a blast!
I had a good time too! I always enjoy spending time with my parents. It is also great to see the bond Aaron has with his Grandparents! My mom and I were able to go on a couple of bike rides up the Monument. The weather was perfect and the changing colors were beautiful! It was great to spend some time together doing something we both love! I was also glad to be there to cook dinner for my parent's 32 wedding anniversary.
John got an elk, so much his week was busy stocking our freezer! Then at the last minute, he was able to catch a ride to Junction to meet up with us for a couple days. Thanks again, David and Becky! I had just picked up his new mountain bike which replaced that which was stolen. He and Dad were able to get a couple rides in over the weekend and we got to drive home together.
