Father's Day Weekend

I was so lucky to have my parents up to Utah for Father's Day. I love when they are here and I love spending time with them. They came up for my cousin's sealing on my dad's side. We spent all weekend with the Hadfield's and it was really fun. On friday after the sealing, they had a bbq at my Grams and Gramps house. It was so nice to visit with everyone. We just talked and talked and talked some more. On Saturday, my mom and I went shopping all day. I love our one on one time together. She is the best person to talk to and she's absolutley hilarious. I love how close we are and how great our relationship is. I just wish I lived closer to my mom and sister's. After we shopped till we dropped, Jon, me, and my mom drove back up to Ogden and had dinner at a really good steakhouse with the Hadfield's. After dinner, we all went back to my grandparents and played games and just chatted. While playing games outside, I got stung by a bee on the knuckle of my thumb. It hurt sooo bad! Anyways, Jon and I slept over at my grandparents that night and the next morning we had a big breakfast for all the father's. After breakfast, Jon, me, my mom and dad, got ready and went to our ward. After church we met my Grandpa Bob (my mom's dad) at Olive Garden for father's day. It was so nice to visit with him, especially since I don't see him that often. Jon and Gramps talked about engineering the whole time because Jon is graduating in engineering and my grandpa is a chemical engineer. After dinner we had to say our goodbyes to my parents. I always hate to see them go. I love them so much and am so grateful for their wonderful and Christ-like examples. I hope Jon and I will be more in love on our 30th year of marriage than we are now (and sometimes that's hard to comprehend since I love him so much already, especially when he suprises me with donuts in the morning at work). That night, Jon and I went over to his uncles house for a little bbq with some Jon's side of the family. I am so lucky to have such great in-laws who treat me like their own and always make me feel so welcomed and loved. I am so grateful for the many wonderful examples of father's I have on both sides of the family. And I know that Jon will be an awesome dad and I can't wait for that day! I'm so baby hungry! And I'm so mad that I didn't take any pictures! Sorry! Welp, see ya later!
