St. George 2015

 These are from one of our favorite places in the whole world... St. George ❤️ We only stayed another year after Aiden was born, but I think we all left a little piece of our heart there when we left. We still go back pretty much yearly, and even more if we can. Our dream is to have a little piece of land there (or near there) someday . . maybe someday it'll happen;)

Anyway, these are from a couple of our favorite hiking spots... Snow canyon, and our favorite petroglyph hike that we tried to go on again a couple months ago and it was closed for renovations... Dang it! I absolutely ADORE this first pic of Aiden and Colton, they're just the sweetest boys in the whole world ❤️ we have so many awesome memories of this little town that we still love so much ❤️ I especially love these pics because they really show Aiden's sweet, fun personality. Carrying Colton in his backpack and both of them smiling, his arm around Lynlee on the bench and again in the one with him and Lynlee close up and Trav, Colton, and Sadie further back, Lynlee standing on the bench laughing because I'm pretty sure he was teasing her and making her giggle, Trav's arms around him giving him a manly "Dad hug" Lol😉

I'll be forever grateful for the love we've always shown to one another. It's always been important to us, but now I'm especially glad...We've always tried to make sure we take every opportunity we can for a hug, an "I love you", or any other way to show our love for one another. I wish we never would have had to go through this... I want him back more than I could ever say. We all loved our Aiders so much 😢💔 but if we had to lose him, at least I have no doubts that he knew he was loved😢💔 I still tell him every day how much we love him and how much we all miss him....we still love you forever buddy ❤️ Til we meet again

Peter Iredale Shipwreck

Image
 These were from Astoria and the Peter Iredale shipwreck on the Oregon coast. We went and saw the Goonies House, Astoria Column, and the cool ships in the harbor. The kids really liked the shipwreck and it was really fun to go visit, they loved playing in the sand and on the beach, and Aiden was such a good sport and let everyone bury him. He was always the ringleader when it came to finding all the fun things to do🥲❤️

Sleep Shenanigans

Image
 Aiden and his sleeping shenanigans was the funniest thing ever. He was always sleep walking, sleep talking, and when he got tired, it didn't matter where he was, he would just tip over. I can't even count how many times he fell asleep at the dinner table 😆 He rarely made it through movies. One time at a hotel he almost sleep walked out the door in the middle of the night, luckily it had one of those locks at the top so every time he pulled the door it slammed into that and woke me up! Another time he came walking out to the living room and we had a set of stairs between it and his room. He sat down on the stairs and I was like, "hey buddy, whatcha doin?" he looked at me and said, "what does it look like I'm doing?" and laid down on a stair and went back to sleep. The first 2 pics of this set is one of my favorite memories, we rode a ferry from Seattle to Victoria B. C. and while we were waiting for dinner, he totally just tipped over and fell asleep at...

Don't Go Out and Break Your Stupid Arm

Image
Oh Mr. Aiden... This whole incident was just CRAZY 🤦 One day Aiden wanted to go and climb the tree in our yard. I was cooking dinner and didn't want him to, and as he was walking out the door I said, "you better be careful! Don't go out there and break your stupid arm!" 5 minutes later, he came back in all pale, nauseous, and covered in dirt and was like, "mom, I think I broke my arm" and I was like YOU HAVE GOT TO BE KIDDING ME!!! I told you NOT to go out and do that!!!  I took one look at it and was like, yep...arms are definitely not supposed to look like that...that's broken. And indeed it was...displaced and everything, and of course ended up needing surgery🤦 So surgery day came, and I told him multiple times.... Nothing to eat or drink after midnight. We had to be there really early in the morning so as I'm getting ready I hear some rustling out in the kitchen and yelled, what are you doing!? You better not be eating! Silence. So I go running...
