Bryton is 8 Years Old!!!














Wow, we can't believe this is possible...but Bryton turned 8 years old this week :) What's this boy all about these days? He's growing quickly - outgrowing his size 8 pants and in size 4 shoes; he loves sports - basketball, baseball, and football, so far; he doesn't like bed time or sleeping, for that matter; he tolerates school (does well, but doesn't love being there, except for recess); drawing continues to captivate him, as do video, computer, and Wii games; he loves to be outside, and is just starting to get into "hunting" w/ Brian - he'll be in a hunter's safety course in a few weeks!; Bryton is big into his friends, which is why we let him invite as many kids as possible to his birthday party - no restrictions!; his favorite foods are cheese quesadilla's, grilled cheese sandwiches, french toast stix, steak, eggs, and taco's; he still calls his mom "Mama" (he started this on his own, when he was very small and it has stuck - which makes me smile b/c his friends are thrown off when he does this, since also he uses the words "Dude","Awesome","Cool", and "Sweet" a lot in their presence; He still loves toys - especially lego's, semi's, trucks, army-type men, and models of planes and trains. Bryton is a very compassionate, sweet boy...Happy Birthday Buddy!

Play Date Fun!




Aspen is a fun friend to have over and play!

Happy Valentine's Day!


I have very good memories of Mom making pink, heart shaped pancakes on Valentine's Day morning, when we were kids! So the tradition continues at our house! (even though this one looks like pink Mickey Mouse ears :)

This Week's Favorites

www.19nfl.com: A co-worker of mine orders jerseys from this website, and they are really good looking quality and seem to wash well...so I think we'll be doing the same!

Swiss Miss hot chocolate w/ marshmallows: Mmmmmm, so good on these cold days! Make it with milk and add a shot of coffee and it is almost heaven!

: Definitely a song I like to sing along to!

Bath and Body Works Kitchen - Sunburst Tangerine anti-bacterial hand soap: This smells really good to me, this time of year.

Munster, Farmer's, and Apple Jack Cheeses: The kids are big fans of "white cheese" these days, and all 3 of these kinds make darned good quesadilla's!
