September 30, 2011- Jon and I went to the Emotion Bowl this year. Neither of us had been since our Senior year 12 years ago. Since we live so close and hear all of the games we decided that we would either be part of the game by hearing it from our house or actually being there to enjoy it. We didn't think to go early because we were within walking distance. By the time we got there the only seat available was in the student section. This meant a night of standing to watch the game. It was well worth it. It was fun to see all of the excitement and cheer for the obviously superior Skyline Team. They didn't let us down. We won 50 to 34. The goal posts are a beautiful blue!
Jon has quickly become one of the favorite Uncles in our family. He loves to play with the kids. If we don't get asked to babysit he is asking or planning a time to go over and play. They love him! I think its because he is part kid. He rough houses with them. We spent some time with Jorgen and Ahli at Leo's Place for Ahli's friend's birthday party. I think Jon had just as much fun as the kids. We've had Cole, Kyle, and Breanna over and played in the leaves. Their favorite thing to do is to use Jon as a Jungle Gym. If Breanna is crying Jon can get her to calm down much faster than I can. Jon and I took Haylee, Jorgen, and Ahli to the school carnival. Afterwards we came back to the house and the girls and I made crafts while Jon and Jorgen watched Cars 2. It used to be when I would walk into the house my nieces and nephews would yell "AUNT JEN" like they were excited to see me. Now they yell Jon's name, or if he isn't with me they ask, "Where's Jon?" Aunt Jen comes in second place now!
