We drove up to Kansas City for a night, ate at a few of our favorite places, CPK and Noodles & Company, and spent the following morning doing sealings in the KC temple and reminisced about our own wedding day and the promises we made to each other and to Heavenly Father. I'm so thankful for forever families. 
I love this man and I love our life together. He still surprises me with how caring and generous he is. We decided that for our anniversary it was time to get our act together and have family portraits done (since it had been 6 years since our last professional family pics... yikes!) so I scheduled an appointment when we were in Ca. I'll post more about it later, but photo creds for the above pic goes to my friend, Annette Dickson, she's amazing!
True to tradition, our drive to KC was interrupted by severe weather. We got stuck on the highway behind an accident and spent over an hour at a dead standstill. We watched the storm rage over us and prayed for safety and were grateful our children were safe at home with Grandma Lynda. During our standstill, my Mom and sisters called to tell me my grandma was in hospice. Aaron let me cry and held the phone for me while my sisters held the phone on speaker to my grandma at the other end of the line while I said my goodbye to her. It was a sad but powerful moment and having Aaron with me made it a better experience. We made it home later and much less relaxed than planned, but we were safe and happy and enjoyed the time together. Aaron is a fun guy and the conversation alone is worth taking a road trip for.
Happy 13th Anniversary, Aaron! There is no one I'd rather be stuck in a storm with than you. You make my life rich with the wealth of your endless supply of love.
