When you Turn 8

Toward the end of the school year I walked into the counseling office with my buddies standing ready for me.  They told me they had a plan and that I had to say YES!  Their plan was to pack up our first born sons at the end of July and head to Albuquerque.  We would leave on Tuesday, come home on Thursday and on Wednesday we would surprise the boys with the Imagine Dragons concert.  I LOVE adventures with friends!  So I said Yes!  Finally the end of July came-and I got to surprise AJ.  He didn't know about the concert til about 4 hours before.  I still don't think it sunk in until we were there listening to them.  We Facetimed with Russell after the show and AJ told him that he cried a couple times because he was so happy while they were playing some of his favorite songs.  It was so beautiful.  It reminded me how important it is to get away and adventure with one kid at a time. 

We also spent time at a waterpark where AJ learned how to love waterslides!  So fun!  I hope this is stored in his memory back for awhile, because it is definitely stored in mine!

Love,
Momma
