Grandpa's Funeral

Last weekend was my grandpas funeral. Such mixed feelings. It was great seeing everyone, but definitely a cruddy situation. But I am glad we were all able to be there, and I'm glad we got to spend some time with my Grandma. We had a bit of a scare with her, and she ended up in the Emergency Room the day before the funeral. She missed the viewing, which was hard, but they released her in time for the funeral that morning. She is such an amazing lady!
Horribly, I forgot my camera so most of these pictures are stolen from my cousins. Such a busy day, but a good day, mostly.

*REVISED* 2015 in Review

This last year has been the fastest year in history! I cannot believe how fast things go when you have 2 kids! It has been full of adventures, blessings, and joy. Here is a bit of a recap:

January
In January we were basically just enjoying the newborn phase of life. Colton was SO TINY! Rob did his first paid gun job, and Weston was dominating his potty training :) 











February
February started off with Kisses, homework, and we blessed the baby :) 















March
March was met with crazy cabin fever, resulting in MANY adventures outside :) Ending with Weston's very first Zoo class.















April
April consisted of naps, the Chubba Bubba emerging from within my baby, Easter eggs, Grandma Dickson coming to visit, and fishing :) 
















May
May was outdoor adventures of Bear World, Fishing, Weston's new bike, and camping. I am so blessed.


























June

As work got busier for Rob, we kept ourselves busy with more zoo classes, and Weston's first Fun Run which he placed 4th in! And the Chubs kept getting Chubbier :)




















July
July was celebrated all outside! 4th of July, more hiking, Swan Valley, camping, and the Drive In :)


































August 
August was highlighted by our trip to Washington for Addison and Shaney's wedding. It ended up being twice as long as we planned due to our car breaking down, but we enjoyed it :) Also got a date night to the rodeo with my hubs :) and one last zoo trip as a family for the season.

















September 
September was focused on Weston's birthday! We also did the demo derby as a fam :)



















October
October was a busy month with Hunting, Halloween, and Pumpkins. Just a few of our favorite things :)






















November 

In November my baby turned 1!! Between that and the Snowfamily, it was an amazing month :)

















December
We finished the year off with a trip to SLC, Christmas Festivities, some Christmas day Football, and a new Kitty :) Rob finally got his reloading stuff, we saw Star Wars opening night, and we randomly took up wood burning :) New Years Eve we did Seafood night with my fam, keeping with tradition.






































I honestly have no idea how we managed to fit SO many blessings inside just one year, but I am so thankful!!! Here is to making 2016 even better, with even more memories, laughter, and joy :)
