I am a lone parent for the next 8 days. My sweet hubby left yesterday morning to go with his brother Tyson his wife Stacey their 19 month old twins (Micah and Hallie), Tyson and Aaron's littlest brother Ira (12) one Budget Moving Van, and one car, to drive them back to Washington D.C. they were here for 10 days and are now headed back with all their stuff. (long story) Anyway, so my hubby offered to be an extra driver and help on this adventure. I am super jealous though not only did he get to go away, of course not completely kid free but he's without HIS kids, but yesterday they drove to S.L.C. and they got to see all sorts of great people...Lis and Bobby, his sister Laurie, her mom Pat (Aaron's Dad's wife) Aunt Peggy etc...so when he called last night and told me I started crying. Oh how I love his family. Lis is a gem and melts my heart...but then tonight he called me and they are in Cheyenne Wyoming, not so exciting right? Well I say what time are you leaving tomorrow? Um, well we are hanging out here for awhile cause someone is coming to see us...silence....Guess who that someone is? Aunt Mary! This is Lis' Mom who is Fabulous...they live in Gillette Wyoming which is 3 hours from where they are but she is leaving at 6:00 in the morning to drive there to see them for a few hours...is she great or what? I love this woman. He didn't want to tell me because he knew I would be even more upset because here I missed seeing everyone in Utah and now this.
The more important thing is though...I'm without Aaron. Its amazing, I can go all day with out seeing him sometimes not even talking, but at night when I know he should be home and he's not..that changes everything for me. I miss him like crazy when he's gone. Oh how I pray this week will go by fast!

How fun that they got to see everyone and Aunt Mary is just icing on the cake! Sad that you're stuck home "alone" though!
I LOVE YOU! I am sorry that you couldn't come!! I miss your freaking guts it makes me cry too! I am at work crying right now actually. Anyway LOVE LOVE LOVE YOU!
I know what you mean, good luck without the hubby--KEEP BUSY (that won't be too hard :)
You're right, my sister is the greatest!!! My apology to everyone who knew I was planning on seeing Aaron, Ty, Stacey and kids. I came home from Peru sick and needed to stick close to a ladies room. I feel so bad that I couldn't see them all.
I can only say that the 3 1/2 hour (one way) drive was totally WORTH IT! Seeing those two darling babies, my unbelievably wonderful nephews Aaron and Tyson, Stacey the most amazing Mom of twins I know and then to top it off I got to talk to you Kristen! Oh wait and Ira too! (What a cutie! He'll hate it that I called him that I'm sure. Jodi and Robert I sent hugs via Ira to you both!) What a day! You are a trooper supporting Aaron and his cross country moving trip! I know that Tyson and Stacey are so grateful to you and Aaron for the help! Hang in there he'll be home before you know it! I LOVE YOU and Miss you all!
thank you thank you thank you!!! you are so wonderful to let us borrow him I don't know how we would have done it without him! I secretly wish you were here though too! we would be having some seriously good times!
