Unexpected Arizona Trip.

My Aunt Armeda
At the end of January, my aunt Armeda passed away and we made an unexpected trip down to Arizona to go to her funeral. While the occassion was sad, it was really good to see my cousins, some who I hadn't seen in 30 years! I wasn't as close to my Aunt Armeda as I should have been, but what I remember most is her smile.
 
We also got a chance to have some fun on the trip. Ethan got to ride his first Harley, and we made a few fun stops on the way  (including Vegas and Glen Canyon Dam).

Snow Fun!


Shoveling Snow!
We got quite a bit of snow this year, and Ethan absolutely loved it! If he had his way, he probably would have been out playing in it a lot more than we let him this winter! It never seemed too cold or wet for him! He always wanted to be out in it and one of his favorite things to do was to grab a handful of snow just to eat!
 





 
Ethan even wanted to try his hand at shoveling snow...check out the video!
