Memories of Aiden; A Memory For Each Day of 2024

 This was one of the first movies that Aiden and Sadie ever went to together. We went and watched How to Train Your Dragon in 3D. I love these pictures of all of us messing around at our house (and in the car) with the 3D glasses on!, 🤣 I still remember how good Aiden and Sadie were at the movie, and laughing because they would jump at some parts because the movie looked surreal and all the 3D stuff was jumping out at them. Such a sweet memory with these 2❤️

 Fantastic Mr fox. We watched this movie for the first time in these pictures, when Aiden was like, 5 years old. And we have been watching it ever since. It stayed one of our favorites through the years and I'll never forget all the times watching this weird movie that had so many little gems of hilariousness and the hundreds of times we've all quoted it ever since❤️

  His frog project. Oh my gosh. I still can't believe he did this!🤣I remember him showing it to me and I was like oh my gosh Aiden are they like, overdosing!? Does your teacher know you're doing this!? Are they going to be ok with this!? There's no way they're going to be ok with this! And he just shrugged his shoulders like, who even knows and I totally don't care... 🤷🤣 I just knew I was going to get a phone call from the principal about it! Somehow I never did though. Although Sadie is doing the Frog project right now and she said there's a list of things that you aren't allowed to do and overdosing is on there Lol! I was like oh my gosh are you serious!? Is it because of aiden!? And she was like well, probably... 😳🤣 I really still can't believe he did this, but it seriously makes me laugh so hard now. Just the perfect example of Aiden's personality, he did what he wanted and no craps were given about what anyone else thought of it🤣 aaaand he

 These are just some random ones that I love from when Aiden was a little younger❤️ messing around at the mall, I don't even know where Aiden, Sadie, and Colton are sitting on the fence at but it's cute!😆 Family pic in the fall at the pumpkin picking patch, mesa falls Idaho when they came to support me at a race, the next one is at a restaurant somewhere I don't remember but I do know it was a big extended family gathering for something 😆, Aiden's 13th birthday, st george, 6th grade awards for reading and never missing a day all year so he could win a bike - he was so determined to make that happen 🥲, and just a random mountain drive❤️ When I look at these, I just see so much happiness 🥲 Nothing crazy, no big trips, just everyday life. But we loved our everyday life 🥲❤️ We loved our sweet kids so much, and they loved each other. They worked hard and learned that that's important. We did everything together, it was just our little family living in our own, happy

 Today's memory is for Grandma Vauna because it's her birthday today... Happy Birthday Grandma Vauna! I love these pictures of her riding horses with Aiden so much, we have the best memories of going to Grandma Vauna and Grandpa Randy's house for horse camp and all the fun farm things😊❤️ I also love these of Aiden and Grandma Vauna's dog Loretta so much, they're some of my all-time favorites🥲❤️ Aiden loved Loretta so much, I hope he found her in heaven and got to give her so many pets, and and really good hugs so her eyeballs bugged out like he did when he was three😉 We love you Gr. Vauna! Happy Birthday ❤️❤️❤️

 Little Wild Horse slot canyon. This was a fun slot canyon near Goblin Valley in Utah. There were some wild spots with downed trees and boulders that we had to to traverse and I was glad trav was carrying Colton in the backpack and not me... Trav's a mountain goat! It got so small in places that we couldn't pass people and there were people spider walking above us to get around, it was so funny! It started to rain so we had to get the heck out of there, but we were able to make it quite a ways in and got to see a lot of it. It was a really fun hike that the kids all loved a lot!
