Tyler and I were able to get a ride to Spokane to visit my side of the family. Tyler hadn't met my step dad or step sister, and hadn't gotten to really talk much with my family-just quick talk at the reception. So we were super excited to get to take this trip.
We were able to spend a whole day with just my mom. That has NEVER EVER happened. It was quite special. Tyler was so patient as we went to the mall, he just waited. It meant a lot to me to get to spend this time with my mom. We went to Riverfront Park so I could show Tyler the giant wagon slide I loved as a kid with the monkey bars underneath. :) We also went to one of our favorite restaurants, Olive Garden! It was a great day. However, I was SUPER excited to show Tyler the arcade that is in the basement of the mall with bumper cars, and the guy wouldn't let me go on the bumper cars because of my belly. I was so ticked cause 1. I knew how excited Tyler was to get to do something more fun than sitting and watching my mom and I shop. and 2. I haven't been there and done bumper cars in FOREVER! But it was still cool to show Tyler the arcade. 
We also set a side a day to spend with my brother Keric. He took us to a different mall where we picked out some pottery and painted them. They fire them and then you come pick them up when they are done. I'm still waiting to get them back, but I will post pictures when I get them! Tyler painted a plane and I did a car for Paxton's room. Keric said they turned out great. 
Then we spent a few days in the Tri-Cities. We stayed with my Grandma and Grandpa Horne. We hung out with my sister and her kids and visited. We had dinner one night all together with my grandparents and my sister and her family. As we were getting ready to leave for my Sister-in-Law's house, my sister's 5 year old got into some trouble. The pictures should explain it.-Baby powder-ALL OVER! We went to visit my Sister-in-Law and the kids (my brother is in another state working). That was really fun. Tyler hadn't met any of them yet either. Just so you know, my Sister-in-Law, Angela, is AWESOME. :) 
Then we we went back to my mom's and my Grandma and Grandpa T came and visited! It was a pretty fun visit. Tyler got to see the house I lived in when I was in Kindergarten, meet some more of my family and we were able to make some fun memories. It was great to see my family again. :)
