Just a little Saturday fun at the park! I hope everyone has a great weekend and holiday season. We are nearing Christmas quickly!

2010-11-26T20:07:00.002-07:00

Here are a few photos that I have been playing with since I started having fun with photo editing! The above picture is my mom and dad, with my mom's best childhood girlfriend and her husband. The picture below is one I edited from Amber's wedding pictures, and the other two are just random ones I took this evening.

2010-11-24T19:54:00.006-07:00

No, we don't put him in the dog kennel-but he loves to play in there! We are having fun using our new Flip Cam...so enjoy!

2010-10-31T10:00:00.006-06:00

Justin really does like his Thomas costume, but he does not really like wearing it! We had to switch costumes, and luckily we had a parrot one on hand that Aaron's mom brought us! He had a great time trick o treating at the high school today!

Mommy & Me

Hello family and friends! We are finally seeing and feeling some nice cool fall weather here in Cheyenne. I am LOVING it! It has been rather warm until very recently. Aaron just finished report cards for his kiddos, work is going just fine for me, and Halloween is just right around the corner. We still don't know what Justin is going to be yet. Yeah, I really need to get on top of that! We'll post pictures of him in his costume. I can't wait!!!

I hope everyone enjoys one more evening before it is back to work!

Poker Face and Chapstick Fun!!!

Estes Park, 2010

2010-10-09T20:50:00.007-06:00

Aaron's mom and dad are here for the weekend, and we wanted to head up to one of our favorite places in the fall, Estes Park, CO. We had a wonderful time today, and got some good pictures. It was a little chilly, but I love that crisp mountain air! Gramma Jeanne brought a parrot costume for Justin, one that Justin's cousin Michael had worn a few years back. I think he looks pretty cute as a parrot!

A little of this and that!

Oregon & Justin's friend Dayton's 3rd b day!

2010-08-14T18:22:00.006-06:00

Above is a video of Justin and daddy at the Oregon coast. It started out very chilly, but ended up being a very warm and beautiful day! The pictures posted were taken while in Lake Oswego, the coast, and at Justin's friend Dayton's 3rd birthday party today.

We had a great time with gramma and grampa Weaver, great gramma and grampa Pepper, Aunt Kim and uncle Brad-and cousins Nick and Natalie (whom Justin adores). We had a great time visiting with everyone and hope to make it back in the next few years!

A little of this and that from MT!

Playing at Gramma and Grampa's farm!

2010-07-27T17:37:00.003-06:00

Justin had a great day with daddy, grampa Jim, and gramma Margie today at the farm! There was a lot of room to roam and play around, and he had his first horsey ride! What a big day for such a little man =)

I was not able to go with them, because I really wasn't able to take the time away from work. The whole family is going to Oregon to see my parents and grandparents at the beginning of August. We will be there for a week, and will spend some time at the beach with my parents for a few days. I am looking forward to it, to say the last. I need a vacation like you wouldn't believe!

I am lonely for my boys. I have never been away from either of them for 12 days. Yikes. It's good for me, and they are having a BLAST! Aaron and Justin will be going to Lake Five with the family-my favorite place in the world-without me!

I hope they have fun, but I also can't wait for them to be back!

Mommy and Me!!!

Another camping weekend!

The park with dad and some Sunday randoms!

2010-07-11T19:33:00.005-06:00

Justin and daddy went to the park today while mommy took a nap (a rather long one might I add). I went to sleep with Justin, but he woke up much sooner than I did! It's been a relaxing weekend, with some great thunderstorms thrown in there. This is what inspired my napping (: All is going well on the home front. Justin has hit his terrible 2's at 17 1/2 months, work is work, and Aaron is teaching summer school-which is over in a few short weeks. We are looking forward to our Portland trip in August, to see my family and head to the coast for a few days. I just realized, we will be at the coast on our anniversary this year. 4 years married, 6 years together. I am sure Aaron would agree that its been pure BLISS!!! Right honey?!

Water World!

2010-07-05T21:22:00.006-06:00

We had a great time at Water World in Colorado today. It was a blast, and I love the water-so it was perfect! Justin liked it too, after getting over his fear of the water (which is odd, cause he likes it...normally). He is wiped out, and so are we. It was worth the $ for sure!!!

July 2010

2010-07-04T12:11:00.003-06:00

Happy 4th of July weekend! Here are just a few pics taken of Jus around the house. We have had a busy weekend with friends, and will be spending time at the park with friends tonight-watching the fireworks!

Just another camping trip!

2010-06-13T14:43:00.003-06:00

Aaron's cousin and uncle came to visit us, and to help us finish our cement patio outside. I think it looks great! Thanks boys!! It was a rainy weekend, so I know it made things even more work! We love you both!

Quick trip to see gramma and grampa!

2010-06-06T13:25:00.002-06:00

My parents had a 3 hour layover at DIA, and we drove down there to eat lunch with them today. Justin could have been in better spirits, but hey, all was well! It was great to see you mom and dad! As you can see, Justin would not sit still in the pictures. He may have some a real good case of ADD, I am not kidding.

The last picture on here is Wrigs-who loves Justin's bed. I think he likes it more than Justin does. They can share it!

Justin's first night in his 'big boy' bed!

2010-06-05T23:39:00.000-06:00

So far, so good!!!

I can do it myself, mom!

2010-05-31T21:04:00.004-06:00

He want's to do everything on his own these days, more specifically...feeding. He actually does a pretty good job of eating with a fork/spoon on his own. A little messy, but no biggie!

I can't believe he will be 16 mo. old tomorrow. We love our little man so much!

Memorial Weekend

2010-05-29T12:19:00.003-06:00

Cory, Aaron's cousin, is here visiting us this Memorial Day Weekend. He returned to the states from Afghanistan just a few weeks ago, and we are so thrilled to have him here from Utah!

Above is a random video of Justin typing away. He loves the computer, primarily just the keyboard part!

Hard to see, but a cute dancing video =)

Wyoming Twister!

2010-05-18T19:48:00.000-06:00

It was a pretty good day, except that I spent a little time huddled in the middle of my office building because of the 'tornado warning'. Here is a picture taken this afternoon, south of town. Since then we have had major cloud formations and rain/hail. I think the warning is no longer in effect. Good! I am not a fan of these kinds of storms!

Reading my favorite book with daddy...

Hello Everyone!

2010-05-15T13:51:00.002-06:00

It's almost the start of summer, and I realized that I have not posted anything except pictures for a very long time. I guess that is the result of being busy, and simply not taking the time to sit down and write a message to all my family and friends.

Justin is 15 months, full of spunk, and completely independent. He reminds me of such a little man, and he is far from the baby we once knew. He sits with us at the table, in his 'big boy' (regular chair), runs around the house, and climbs up and down the stairs. He is now throwing minor tantrums, but luckily they are very short lived, as I don't think he can concentrate on something long enough to be upset! He is a daddy's boy, through and through, and I remind him constantly that he loves momma and that he wants to spend time with me. Of course, I know he loves me, but him and dad are the best of buddies. I'm thankful for that, and thankful that Justin is lucky enough to have such a wonderful father.

Aaron is now done with his Masters. Finally! I am proud of him, and he worked very hard to get through it quickly. He is still teaching 3rd grade at Cole Elementary, and he loves his job. He enjoys the kiddos, and he has great co-workers. My job, it continues to 'go'. We have had a lot of changes in management, which has made things difficult and stressful at times. We will be having more changes coming up with a new 'Area Manager', and I am hopeful it will bring us good leadership and consistency. I guess we will see!

We are planning a trip to the coast with my parents this summer. We will meet them in Portland, spend some time with my grandparents and family in Lake Oswego, and then head to the beach for a few days. It should be very fun, and I know Justin will love to run on the beach and play in the sand. I can't wait to spend a week with my family!

Mom started a new chemotherapy, and she seems to be doing pretty well despite all the horrible side effects that can come with this particular regimen. She is a strong and very spiritual woman, who has a wonderful outlook on life-and the 'afterlife'. I know she gets sick and tired of feeling sick and tired, and I can't blame her after dealing with her cancer for the last 9 years. We hope for the best, and count our blessings. Despite all of the ups and downs, she is still here with us.

That's about all the news that I have for now! We are enjoying a relaxing day at the house, listening to the rain on the roof and against the windows. Perfect day for an afternoon nap....

Where has the time gone? Justin is 13 months old, but acts like he is already 2. Aaron continues to work on his M.S degree, and will be done in May. Thank goodness! He is also working on finishing our bathroom in the basement-and then our home will be completely finished! When are we going to move again you ask? We're not sure. We have thought about building, but things are still up in the air. Call us crazy, but the decisions we have made in the past have always worked in our favor so we must be doing something right.

Aaron continues to like teaching 3rd grade, and he has definitely found his calling. If my job doesn't kill me off first, I should still be there for a while. It's pretty stressful right now, and I have been putting in a lot of long hours. I may be starting my M.S degree this fall...it's pretty likely. I'll try to hang in there for now!

Justin is talking like crazy, although he only says 'hello' and 'dad'. He doesn't say 'mommy' or 'mom', but that will come in time. He talks a lot of jibberish, and sometimes it sounds like he says things that make sense-but who knows?! He is wild, to put it lightly. He is into everything, and runs back and forth from one end of the house to the other, spreading toys (and lot's of joy too). We just laugh at him. He's a little boy and he has a lot of energy. If he is diagnosed with ADHD, as I expect he may be, we will love him just the same and he will keep us on our toes, even more, for several years to come! The only time he will cuddle is when he is sleeping, and on the rare occasion when he will give quick 'loves' to mom, dad, and Wrigley. He is happy, healthy, smart, and handsome. What more could we ask for?

Here are a few pics of the wild man himself. We look forward to coming home in the summertime and at Christmas. I wish we could make it sooner, but there is only so much time I can take off of work. Hugs to everyone and have a wonderful weekend!!!

Justin's 1st birthday was a success! We had a lot of fun, and Justin loved each and every one of his presents! It was a great day, and thank you to everyone that could make it!!

2010-01-18T20:18:00.002-07:00

As you can see, Justin was not really thrilled about the prospects of a new do. He liked his old shaggy look!
He thought, this isn't so bad!
Actually, this is fun-something new to chew on!!

Christmas time is nearing us, and Justin will be 11 months before we know it! This year has literally breezed by us! I can barely imagine Justin being a newborn baby, and it was not even a year ago! I have to say, the older he gets, the more fun he is! He has such a fun little personality, and I get excited to come home to him each and every night! This will be Justin's first Christmas and I just can't wait!!
