So I'm not going to post a big huge thing on all about what we did on Jesse's R&R. In fact, really, most of it was just spending time together as a family, something we all enjoyed and very much needed. I know Jesse and I are both really wishing we had it back right now too.
As a promise, I made a full turkey dinner. After all, Jesse missed all the major holidays with us. Here are just a couple photos of the food we had and us at the table.

Yup, I made him carve it.
I bought him this awhile ago but it was one thing I wanted to surprise him with when he was home. Jesse is the one that took the picture, so yes, he was very pleased.
Jesse loves to fly a kite. So I had picked up a little one before he got home and then one afternoon we took the kids to Kelly park to fly it. They all had a lot of fun.
And yes, our kids can get easily amused by simple things like the max car wash.
We also took them over to Biggs park to play one afternoon. Jesse had us get another kite (different kind) and we were going to try again but sadly there was no wind.
Just a couple days before Jesse had to go, we had our family portraits done (and yes, I have some to give out to family and friends). Afterwards, we went to one of our favorite restaurants, Golden Corral.
Just a couple pictures of Jesse enjoying time with his boys.
Of course we had some pool play.
One last thing we did before he had to go, was to take a drive up to Transmountain. You can see some of the mountain close up, after all, we are actually in/on it and some overlooking part of the city.

Diana: What a great post. All the pictures are great of all five of
you. Looks like you had a great family time (and that's the best)

the pictures, you will each remember.
Thanks for sharing them with us.
We love each and every one of you

that mountain looks like the beginning of Indiana Jones. and for the record, I love the car wash too, as long as I am not driving thru it.
Thanks for sharing these pictures with us. It's nice to see Jesse again especially. Nice going on the turkey, Diana ... it looks like all you had a great time together. We miss all of you.
