10 Grigg Moments in 2014

February, I went back to work at Cabela's with Benji. In doing so, Tristin became the latest fit model for their toddler clothes. 

May, Tristin started walking. We have yet to be able to keep up with him since. 

May 31st, we celebrated Tristin's first birthday. 

4th of July, we spent with week in Utah and Idaho visiting family and friends. It felt like we had never truly left. 

September, we decided we were ready for a new adventure and made the move to Texas. We are so excited to be here. 

October, Benji and Tristin took their first father/son trip and attended Benji's brother's wedding in Denver.

Halloween.

December, Tristin got his first haircut. He no longer looks like a baby. 

Santa was not a hit this year. 

But Christmas morning was. 

We are so grateful for the adventures and lessons learned this past year and are so excited to see what 2015 has in store for us!

The last 3 months...

The last 3 months of have been quite the adventure for our little family.

You could say a lot has happened. 

1. Tristin was born. Full story here. Love that day.
2. Ten days later, Benji leaves to start his new job. I cried when he left, but pretty much his dream job right out school. 
3. Tristin and Rebecca stay in Idaho. Thank goodness for my parents staying with us the whole time! I don't know what I would have done without them. 
4. Rebecca gets everything ready for the movers. Bigger headache and stress than I would have imagined. 
5. Movers come pack and take everything.
6. Benji flew back to Idaho Falls. I cried when I picked him up at the airport. After a month of being apart, its ok to cry some.
7. Benji, Rebecca and Tristin drive to Nebraska.
8. Live in furnished housing while we wait for our moving truck to arrive. 
9. Finally the moving truck arrived.
10. One week later, Tristin's baby blessing. Pictures to come. We unpacked as much as could, thank goodness for my Mom and sister, then stuffed the unpacked boxes in Tristin's room. 
11. Now to unpack the rest of the boxes and organize the chaotic mess. 

I think that concludes it. I am very ready to get settled.

We are already planning our trip back to Idaho Falls. We miss it dearly.

Our first home as a family of two. So many memories created there.

Something about the air and smell when it becomes fall.

There is crispness in the air.

I just love it. 

And can't wait for it.
