one month


our baby daddy has been gone now for one month...the count down to saturday is for real. its almost like christmas. maybe even better. i am reminded how amazing single moms truly are, but mostly i am reminded how much we love and appreciate our papa. dads are pretty great. we lucked out in that department. i am also super grateful for face time. how did we ever live without it? every morning river wakes up and face times his papa and tells him all about what we did the day before (korea vs utah time zone is not easy to communicate...we are always sleeping when the other is awake). i am so grateful for this time i have had with just me and my two boys. even though some times were super hard, and i/river may have had a couple breakdowns in between, i feel like i have grown the most. i have learned so much this past month, and i have really been trying to fine tune my patience. we have been on lots of adventures, and mostly spent our days in our favorite place...nature. mostly i am grateful that all of my boys are healthy and safe. now come home husband. we miss you. and this mama needs a spa day;) and here is a bit of how our past month has gone...

Tibble fork.

Ranger rides

He'll walk anywhere if he has two sticks in hand. 

Our days are usually on the go-lunch time at cousin, Ryder's soccer game, and getting yelled at by the river-monster. Typical. 

Bike rides every day. 

Our weekly library trip. 

Zoo day. Giraffes are his favorite. 

And dinosaurs. 

Two of river's favorites, tractors and Noah. 

Park city. 

Nickelcade birthday party. His love for motorcycles is still going strong. 

Pool days with our neighborhood friends. 

The best little hiking partner. 

My love.
