Summer Vacation 2013

We were all over the place for this trip. We were gone for over two weeks, stayed in five different places, and I packed TEN, yes ten, different times because we were hopping between houses. A few highlights:
Hiking in Palm Springs

Pool time

Beach trips

He loved playing in the sand.

Watching Austin skydive

Paddleboarding

Austin's mission farewell

And time at the cabin

During this trip, we were thrilled to get a job offer on, you guessed it, June 28th. We'll be moving in about two weeks and we're so excited that Josh will have the opportunity to practice criminal law. He's doing exactly what he wanted to do when he started law school, which is pretty cool.

Mom

Thank you for all of the sacrifices you made to stay home with us. I didn't realize at the time how lucky I was to have a mom waiting at home for me, eager to hear about my day.

Thank you for giving me a childhood full of swimming, soccer games, trips to the park, vacations, amusement parks...fun.

Thank you for fighting so hard to have our move pushed backed two months so that I could compete at nationals.
Thank you for being such a fantastic grandma to Noah. The cards, the gifts, the frequent visits...we can tell you dig him.

Thank you for running around like a maniac, cooking, cleaning, and shopping when I was on bedrest to make sure that I would be taken care of when you left.
Thank you for being fun...and maybe a little crazy.

Thank you for being so involved and interested in my life, but never overstepping boundaries. Thank you for caring about all of the little details.

Thank you for dropping everything to celebrate with me. Making cheer, getting into college, graduations, birthdays, getting engaged, the wedding, Noah's birth, his blessing...you've been with me through it all.

Thank you for your love and your sacrifice. I love you mom!
