We had plans to fly out on SUNDAY (6.18.17), but our flight was overbooked so we were not able to get on (luckily we knew before we left for the airport) so we spent the day hanging out with my mom & dad at their place. It was nice to have a chill day, I […]

a friendship i never thought i’d get back
In my last semester of high school (in 2012), I met this girl named Bri in one of my classes. We instantly connected and became best friends very quickly. She was my person (any Grey’s Anatomy fans out there!? 😛 ). I even met Aaron through her, and I thought it was fitting that she […]
des moines marina photo session
SATURDAY (6.17.17) we packed up from staying at the Mark’s house and headed down to the Des Moines Marina to do a little family photo shoot. It was so much fun! Lizzie provided me with a little bit of a “challenge” since you can’t tell a toddler to stand still and smile but I feel like I got some […]
i’ve known you for 5 years
On FRIDAY (6.16.17), Aaron & I celebrated 5 years of knowing each other. EVERY PIZZA ME LOVES EVERY PIZZA YOU 😍🍕 || I THOUGHT HE WAS CUTE & FUNNY WHEN I MET HIM, & 5 YEARS LATER, I THINK HE’S SUPER HOT AND REALLY FUNNY 😂 In 2012, I met Aaron through our mutual friend, Bri. At the […]
the mark family
On MONDAY (6.12.17), we pulled into Tyler & Daniella’s driveway to stay with them for a few days. It was a part of our trip we were anxiously looking forward to 🙂 The last time we saw Lizzy was on our last Seattle trip and she was 7 months old (ironically the same age as Rylie 😛 […]

Aaron flew in late on SATURDAY (6.10.17). Unfortunately, he missed the wedding (😦) but we had a full day planned on SUNDAY (6.11.17) visiting my side of the family.

LIKES :: playing with her toys talking (cooing, sighing, gasping, sticking her tongue out, saying “mama,” “dada,” and “nananana” and making a noise, etc.) making faces bouncing her legs walking outside being on her tummy eating Mommy + Daddy’s food sitting up by herself holding Mommy’s &/or Dadddy’s finger reaching for stuff putting her binky in […]
meeting great-grandparents
Rylie got the chance to meet her great-grandparents on this trip. First, Rylie got to meet her great-grandparents (my dad’s parents). Both my grandparents were so excited to meet their 5th great-grandchild. 4 generations We got to see them a couple more times during out visit to Seattle, and we were sure to take […]
park day
While I was preparing for Seattle, I knew I wouldn’t have time to see everyone who knew me, but I knew a lot of people would want to meet Rylie. So, to make it easy for others (and myself… just being honest!) I made plans to be at a park that was centrally located for a […]
