Hello everyone! This is Wes blogging this post. Ashurity says that I should try doing a post once in a while, so I thought what a perfect opportunity it would be to share about out wedding anniversary.
We decided to return to Salt Lake this year and continue with our tradition of spending the weekend out-of -town. Ashurity had to work a half day on friday, and I had the day off, so we got the family and headed down to Salt Lake. We usually stay with Garrin & Stephanie (Ashurity's aunt and uncle), but I had found a good deal on a hotel in Taylorsville, so we decided to stay there and enjoy the pool and hot-tub. Plus it was a centralized location to everything.
After getting into town and checking in, we decided to go to the Gateway Mall and continue our family tradition of building a new member of our family. We visited Build a Bear, and with Piper and Kendell's help, we created Avery Panda Jones. In case anyone is wondering, we have 3 other created children; Taylor, London, and Lilly. After Build a Bear, we walked around the mall and checked out the other stores and say the Wayne Jones Family brick at the Winter Olympics Fountain. I had heard of a fondue restaurant downtown, and wanted to take Ashurity there on Saturday for lunch. But we discovered they are only open during the evening, so we took the whole family and tried it out. Couple of things for anyone that wants to goto the Melting Pot. 1. Make sure you have a reservation! We ended up waiting for over an hour for a table because we missed this step. We got in, but it was late, and the kids were tired. Not exactly a romantic evening, but it was fun! 2. The cheese fondue appetizer and chocolate fondue dessert were delicious. The main course was so-so. I would recommend skipping the main course.
After dinner, it was back to the hotel for some well deserved sleep!!
I will continue the story in the next posting! ;0)
