I have some pictures of some things I found, however I’m unsure what I found, it seems oddly symmetrical to be nothing so I wanted a second opinion!

I see some interesting-shaped rocks with some colorful mineral staining, but no fossils.

There may be slightly more than staining there, but I agree that this is not a recognizable fossil.

I think that there was a tiny fracture in this rock and the minerals seeped in causing the staining. 

When the rock was broken open, it naturally split along this weakness line revealing the mineral stain.

I think the mineral sours is shown in the bottom two photos.

Do you mean source? 

If so, I don't get it. What is the source?

Yes. I guess spell check just gave up on me and said go for it. :) 

Here is what looks like a mineral inclusion to me.

Maybe. 

But I just think that's staining along a bedding plane or two.
