Well let me just start off saying that Jim is not into wrestling. He does not enjoy sitting at a meet all day long to watch the boys wrestle for maybe a few minutes (coming from a family of wrestling I on the other love it). When I first told him I was going to sign the boys up for wrestling he said you are not, so since then he has come a long way and is a more supportive of them. With the meets being on Saturdays it keeps our weekends tied up all season. We had a break in wrestling last weekend and the kids and I decided it would be fun to surprise dad and plan a fun day for him. We told him we were going stay home and clean the house. I secretly got lunches, camo-packs, and everything we needed loaded in the car then Trey and Easton ran a (cheesy) note in to Dad. It said:
We don't want to work. We are ready to play,
So grab a jacket. Today is family day.
Moms got everything packed & we're ready to go.
We're hoping for good weather. We don't want it to snow.
Wear some good shoes we may do some walking.
And its hard to hear a dead man talking.
So climb aboard and have on good socks.
Cuz' everyone knows the JENSE FAMILY ROCKS!
We started our day at Virgin. It was fun for the kids to feed the animals carrots and get some good photos.

After lunch and some hiking around Zions were headed to Grafton, Utah. Trey has been learning about ghost towns at schools and has been wanting to visit one for sometime. The kids had a lot of fun reading and exploring the little town of Grafton.

All in all it was a fun day as a family and we just want to say thanks Dad for putting up with the long wrestling season and being a good sport. We love you and appreciate all you do for us!!!!!!
