Halloween 2012

Josh made a "WILSON" shirt for Aidan and this was his Halloween costume!
We went to daddy's work (our corporate office since Josh and I work at the same company, just different place) for trick-or-treating in the afternoon. We had just walked in (we have a doctor's clinic on site at corporate) and Aidan immediately started crying because he thought we were there to go to the doctor, it was funny! He slowly started to get the concept of "getting candy from strangers" (the safe way of course) and he started to enjoy it a little.
Then right after getting Josh from work, we went to our church for ward trunk or treat. I actually had a lot of fun and I think it's a great idea (my very first one ever). We got another stash of candy. One of the ladies' in my ward was SO in love with Aidan's costume! She kept commenting on how great she thought it was. (I'm sure this made Josh feel good since he made it). Then we traveled to Aidan's great-grandma's house, Nana Bowe's house and then Grandma Rigby's house. 
Needless to say we were tired, but I really enjoyed Aidan's first real Halloween experience!

Happy 2nd Birthday kid!

I can't believe this sweet boy just turned 2!

We had a party with family and here are some pictures, but only of him eating brownies and ice cream (thank you to my sister, Michelle, who took the pictures). I'm a bad mommy and didn't take any pictures.



He was better this year (he cried, again, while we sang to him) but other than that he was a good boy!
We also (finally) did a blessing for Aidan this night too. Josh and I have only been back to church since December of 2011 so we never got this done. It's done now and I'm proud of my husband for doing it.

Blake/Jeanne's Wedding

      




(This is my favorite photo from their engagements...well that showed Blake's face LOL)
      Today's Josh best friend got married! It is kind of crazy to me that he got married. A lot of people thought this day would never come (everyone kept saying it, it was pretty funny) Even Blake himself didn't think this would happen.....most especially in the temple. Good for him though!
Jeanne is a great girl and they go well together.
      This brings me to a goal between my husband and I.
Josh and I decided that by our anniversary next year (August 17th, 2013) that we will be sealed in the temple. Which temple we don't know, but that's not the important part :)

Free Zoo Day

July 4th at the Hogle Zoo, they let veterans and active military and their families come into the zoo for free :) Thanks Granddad! ( I didn't get a bunch of pics but here are 4)
He didn't want to leave these little meerkats :)

Had to get out of the stroller to get a closer look at the monkey.

I love his face!

The end of the bird show. Aidan was afraid of the birds, especially when they swooped over the crowd.

Bear Lake Reunion June 19-27




 We stayed at an awesome "castle" on the Idaho side of Bear Lake. This was our own private dock.

Nana Bowe bought Aidan this chair while we were there.....

.....because he wanted to sit on Michael's chair, but Michael wanted to sit on his own chair. :)


Aidan was walking down the dock with Uncle Ron and started going too fast and fell down.....got this on his nose.
Aidan sitting with great-grandma Woolfenden watching Sesame Street on the iPad.
We went through Paris and stopped and did the tour of the tabernacle there.


I found this some place in Idaho and just thought it was funny. "Children left unattended will be rounded up, corralled, and GIVEN A FREE PUPPY OR KITTEN"



Josh took Aidan out in the tube behind the boat. Aidan was a champ and lasted at least 5 minutes with only slight whimpering :)


 Waiting to get in the boat and playing in the water with a flag.


 
Aidan LOVES lemons and eats them--peel and all.

This was at a Chinese restaurant  and this was RIGHT before he spilled the cup all over the table! :(

I found out that today is National Licorice Day! I'm so glad I have a tub of Red Vines to help me celebrate!
