Mid Week of Jack Update

It is the WEEK of JACK. Tomorrow is his birthday and one day of celebration isn't adequate, so, we have created the WEEK of JACK.

This weeks happenings:

Monday: Jack got a fish


Jack has been NEEDING a puppy for quite a while now, but between our schedules and our landlord's lack of approval, the time is just not right. So, this is our "make Jack forget he wants a puppy by appeasing him with a fish" gift.

Tuesday: Jack got to eat out


After attending a session at the Salt Lake temple, Jack and I ate at the Garden. For those of you who aren't familiar with this restaurant, it is in the Joseph Smith Memorial building with a beautiful view of the Salt Lake temple. Jack loves eating out, but between time constraints and a very frugal wife, he doesn't get to do so very often.

Wednesday: Jack is leaving on a jet plane...

Off to California! I decided that the best way to celebrate Jack's birthday was with his best friend DONALD DUCK! That is right, we are going to Disneyland. Last night as we were falling asleep Jack keep asking me question after question about our trip...it was like talking to a 5 year old about Disneyland
"Are we going to see Captain Jack Sparrow?"
"Are you going to go on Splash Mtn with me?"
"Are we going to see Mickey?"
Granted, he was trying to act like a 5 year old, and I was definitely contributing to the childishness of the conversation, but I thought it should be shared.

Still to come: Jennie Fife goes into labor Wednesday afternoon. Will she be able to hold off for Jack's best birthday present ever? (As Jack just texted to Morgan, "Tell her to hold on for 8 more hours!")

Sausha,
You spoil Jack too much... maybe if Will and I both worked full time last semester instead of not working at all, we could afford to go to Disneyland. I hope The Garden was good. I want to try it out. We're excited to join in the festivities on Sunday! Happy early birthday, Jack. (I bet you don't get that much.)
