This past week & a half have been so much fun for all of us, but especially for Aiden. We have been surrounded by friends & family and it has been a blast.
Friday the 29th Jeremy & some friends in the ward went off roading in the baja and some quads another guy has. Some of the wives and kids came to my house to play while the dads were out. Aiden has not stopped talking about his "new" friend, Gage, yet. Gage is about 2 and a half and German is a month younger than Aiden. The kids all went to bed here and we watched a movie until the guys got home around 11:30. We all exchanged stories of the evening and chatted for a little while. Everyone went home around midnight. It was a late night, but we had a good time. Yes, 12am is now "late" to me.
The next day we went to the lake with one of the same couples (Kimber & Brandon...gage's family). Aiden is doing better with the water. Of course, it was much warmer this time than it was in the end of May. He got in with Jeremy & I and stayed in for a while. When we got back in the boat to head into the docks, Aiden fell asleep. And so did all the other kids. It was a sight to see. They were all so cute and soooo exhausted. I don't have any pics cause I forgot my camera that day.
For the 4th of July we went to the cabin again. Jeremy got off work early on Tuesday and we made a 24 hour trip. We love to go on rides in the Kawasaki Mule that Grandpa Benson has. Aiden does too... and again, he fell asleep on our ride.
Jeremy's Aunt Rachel and her family were here this weekend from Oklahoma. Her son, Tanner, is about 18 months older than Aiden.
They played for a little while at our house and had a great time together. This is a pic of the two of them eating goldfish. And another one of them playing in the baja. Tanner loved the baja. We had to bribe him to get him to come back inside. It is fun to have cousins around. We were able to spend Saturday & Sunday afternoons with ALL the cousins. Aiden has so much fun with lots of other kids around. Jeremy & I also enjoyed the time we spent getting to know his mom's family more.

We have really had a crazy week or so. I didn't really even think so until I started looking at all the pics and putting this post together! No wonder we slept in today!

Looks like a fun week!! Your little Aiden is darling. How is your family doing? I haven't seen any of them in a long time!!
We're all doing really well. Jake is in Tacoma WA on his mission. He has about 8 months left. Emily is skinny, popular and gorgeous - she'll be a junior in the fall (How old are we!?!?!?) Josh is working and playing... I think playing a little more than working. Mom & Dad are good. Not much to report with them other than the fact that they LOVE grandparent-hood. I talked to your mom a few weeks ago. She seems to love it too.
That is so good.. and ya it's scary to think how old we are! I remember seeing Josh when he was on his mission in Canada!! Yes my mom LOVES being a grandma
Tiffani,
I love that Grandpa Benson is all about having fun on the ride. Sadie always falls asleep on 4 wheeler rides. Silly kids. Looks like a fun weekend!
