A Few Choice Moments In the Last Few Days--

I have SO many pictures from last weekend - with all the viewings and the funeral, and the many many family gatherings.

It was so so nice to be able to spend some time with my brother Chris and his family, who live in Oklahoma, and that we only see about 1 every year and a half.

After the funeral, we went up to the cabin to plant a tree for my Grandpa and to spend some good, quality time relaxing and enjoying ourselves.

Gerritt loves wrestling with our nephew, Alek - and...pretty much all of the little kids
My brother, Chris, and Hudson (you can see the burn he got last Tuesday from pulling the iron down on his face. It's actually pretty healed in this picture too)
My Mom bought this little pioneer wagon and quickly sewed a cover for it - SO CUTE!
Hudson could never resist giving hugs to his cousins!
Hannah was a trooper to keep pulling the kids around all day long

Family planting the trees
Cutest little Grandma Romney (or "Ronie", as Max says it)
The tree we dedicated to Grandpa Romney - an Autumn Blaze Maple that turns red in the fall and lives for a hundred years! I can't wait til it's big enough to put swings on it!
A beautiful, yet treacherous hike up a rock face of the mountain behind the cabin




Max had SO much fun with his cousins! We miss you guys!!

Whew! I'm feeling a tad bit more caught up now.... Sometimes I get so overwhelmed with how much is happening in our lives that I can't even keep it straight, let alone, write about it! I'll work on it! :)
