Today is Jon's 33rd birthday. Some years it falls right on Labor Day, so he gets a day off. This year, however, it does not, so he still has to go to work. Bummer.
He did take Friday off, though, so he could have an extra long weekend. It will be nice. We will be spending time with his sister and hopefully his brother. (Which is inevitably include playing Settlers of Catan with the Seafarers, Cities and Knights, and Traders and Barbarians expansions. Yay!)
Just a little note about this picture. For Maryanne's night, Jon started reading to her. Yes, it's a chapter book. Yes, she's playing with a car instead. But, she's sitting by him and he's reading. Two of the most important things they could be doing together. I love it!
Here are a few things to know about Jon this year:
1: Thing he misses most about Minnesota:
