So much has happened, we went on vacation, Aiden turned 3, we went camping... Natalie is 4 months old...and so I will try to pick up the pieces. Let's start with Vacation... We went to Eagle Crest Resort with Tyler, Brooke, Colton and Ayla (and baby peanut) and shared a condo. Richard and Colleen were nice enough to get for us all. We had a great time together as always and the kids had a blast swimming, hanging out, going for night time hikes, seeing deer and baby fawns up close, and general merry-ment. The best was to be there when Brooke and Tyler told everyone about being pregnant again. Peoples faces are so much fun to watch!
