a weekend in ellensburg

my boys!

Last weekend we were lucky enough to get to go to Ellensburg to spend the weekend with Trav's family. We got there on Friday evening and went to the fair. The weekend was great and it was nice to catch up and visit. Parker especially had fun playing with cousins Torri and Raylee. He had so much fun walking around the house and chasing Mommy everywhere. He even found and very big Swiffer and was loving it!!! I think that Aunt Rhonda loved having at least a little of the dusting done for her too! Just one less thing to do...what mom doesn't love that??? Torri and Raylee had blown up individual air mattresses to sleep on in the living room and Parker thought it was so much fun to be pulled around on them like they were sleds! It was hilarious to watch.

After we got back from the fair, Travis decided that we should go out and and pet Mark and Rhonda's horses. Parker even sat on one. He wasn't so sure about it!

On Sunday, before we all headed back home we took some family pictures. I think they turned out pretty well!

Travis and I met when he was a freshman at Eastern Washington University. Neither of us were looking to fall in love or even looking for someone to date...but fate stepped in and gave us a huge shove into a relationship that will last a lifetime. I graduated from EWU with my BA in Elementary Education with a Major in Mathematics and a Minor in Reading. I could not be happier with my decision to become a Teacher and feel it is what I was meant to do (along with being a Mommy). After I graduated, we fell in love with a little rescue puppy and just had to make him our own. We named him Deacon...and still have no idea what kind of dog he really is. We were married on September 8, 2007 at Central United Protestant Church in Richland, Washington. This is the same church where my parents and sister were married and the place where I feel the most connected to Christ. On October 18, 2008 we welcomed our son Parker James into the world (almost a week after his due date). He was totally determined to stay in my tummy. Parker is so curious and sweet. He truly keeps our lives interesting! In June of 2009 Travis graduated from EWU with his BA in Criminal Justice and Minors in Government and Sociology. We try to live everyday to the fullest and to live with no regrets. Travis joined the United States Air Force in June 2010. It was difficult to have him away from home for so long during training, but it was all for the greater good. In January of 2011 we packed up the U-Haul and moved to Oklahoma and our first duty station at Tinker Air Force Base. We were thrilled to welcome a baby girl into the world on August 29, 2011. We named her Delainey Kae and she totally completed our little family. Our children are our world and we are so blessed. There is no greater gift in life than family and we are well aware of it. We are so excited to start the next chapter of our lives as a family of 4 {living who knows where} and to see what else the Lord has in store for THE GUION FAMILY!
