Aiden's Field Day

By -
Aiden has been having a hard time in school lately so I needed to go keep an eye on him when Field Day came up.  I worry about this kid. A lot.  But anyways, he had a good time at Field Day and did very well. 

He's so excited to start the obstacle course!
 

Silly boys proving how strong they are by picking each other up.
 

This was a water relay race where you had to fill up a bucket of water by passing the water off to person to person using cups.  Aiden got tired of waiting and started to chew his cup. 


When Aiden gets overstimulated he tends to either act out or separate himself somehow.
 
 
 

Aiden's newest friend just so happens to live in our neighborhood, and I'm even friends with his mom!  I am just so grateful that he has a buddy to play with.


 
Aiden looked so cute all curled up in this tire eating a popsicle. :)

 
After some face painting (that's a blue snake if you couldn't tell) and playing on the playground, we ended this fun Field Day.

Some Time Away in Paradise

Rex and I went to Maui, Hawaii together, just the two of us!  It's times like this when we get to see the value of him traveling so much - the plane trip and hotel were completely paid for with points.  Cha-ching!  Rex totally spoiled me too.  The Mariott we stayed in was fit for a king and queen - a humongous tub, fully stocked kitchen, big comfy bed, an amazing breakfast buffet every morning, a tropical paradise of pools and hot tubs and beautiful flowers every where... a girl could get used to this.   We spent the first night and morning cramming in some homework for our scuba-diving certification class.  The next 2 days were spent at the scuba shop and in the ocean, passing off drills and skills needed to not-die.  And good news.  We did not die and completely lost ourselves underwater looking at the beautiful fish and eels and turtles around us.  Okay, just one turtle.  But it was pretty memorable!  I didn...

Mist of Darkness

So now that I have finally caught up with my blogging, I feel that I need to explain where I've been. This blog is mainly for journal purposes, so just ignore this post if it makes you uncomfortable. I've known that I've struggled with depression for five years now. I've been in some dark places in my life with horrible thoughts and temptations, but it's been under control for the most part. I've been "missing" for the past 2 months because I was slowly spiraling downwards without realizing it. True, I never had any suicidal thoughts this last time (maxing out your Zoloft should have SOME kind of effect) but I started losing interest in the things that usually make me happy. Blogging. Creativity. Photography. My family. Sunshine. With the winter, it seemed that everything had turned gray and dead, and not just the plants. My husband kept urging me to do something just for me, but I always felt that I didn't have time, and if I did, that i...

Surrounded by Handsomeness

      We christened the new van by going on TWO road trips this month. The first was to Oklahoma (and I guess, technically, Branson, MO as well) and the next weekend was to Utah to celebrate Rex's sister's wedding! So so so happy for her and her new hubby.  We got our first picture as a family with EVERYONE wearing a suit, well, except me of course. What handsome men surround me!
