Simon #1-- Bryant

Bryant is my serious guy who also enjoys a good laugh. He loves to tell jokes. This particular Sunday morning he got dressed for church, then asked me how he should do his hair-- Spikey or a bum part? We went with a bum part. I think it is too cute.

Simon and Simon

Recently I was browsing the videos at the story and saw one for the old tv show Simon and Simon. I liked watching that show as a child. If you don't remember-- it is about two brothers who are private detectives. They also happen to have very different personalities and likes. It makes me laugh because I see so many differences in my own boys personalities and tastes. So my next few post are going to showcase some of these differences. Stay tuned.

Well we are back in school. Then out of school for the flu-- Alex got hit the worst. The kitchen cabinets are repainted and looking great. The new year is looking busier than ever as we get read to move. I am sorry I haven't posted anything for a bit. I'll be doing some back posting to catch up. Just wanted to let anyone who reads know I haven't fallen off the face of the Earth.

Happy New Year

This is how we spent the first day of our new year. Painting, cooking, measuring the boys to see how much they have grown and human pyramids. Great day!!!

new years eve

We had a fabulous time at with the Suddabys for New Year's Eve. The boys played to their hearts content. Brent and Judy spoiled us with lots wonderful food. They were also very thoughtful. Knowing we don't drink they got sparkling apple juice for everyone. They didn't even say anything about it. Jeff brought it up asking them if they usually would have some wine. Well yes they said but not a big deal this time. Couldn't ask for anything kinder.

jeff is hunting

Jeff went hunting New Year's day with our friend Doug and Rudy his dog. It was more just having fun hiking around as they didn't really see any birds. The one exception was the one that flew in front of a house. Doug thought better of trying for it.
