We were able to attend their "Walk with Angels" fundraiser today and are so glad that we could. Some of our extended family members were able to come do it with us which made it even more special. Before the actual walk began the announcer said, "we call this our walk with angels because we truly believe that all these children with different disabilities are angels." I had just been begging and pleading and dragging my very stubborn Nash man to get off the bouncy house and come join the walk. I looked around and saw several parents dealing with the same thing. Kids not wanting to comply or be interrupted in their fun. Some parents were struggling to push wheelchairs through the grass. Others were trying to keep all of their other children from running off. Some of the kids had to be carried, pulled in wagons or pushed in strollers. Everyone started lining up behind the start line but not us because Nash wanted to be up by all of the cool characters. So we sat in the shade and watched the parade of "angels" and their families walk by. At first appearance they didn't look like angels, at least not the cherubic, glowing, always pleasant, well behaved kind of angels. But they are angels. They are angels because they come here in imperfect bodies (which can't be an easy thing) to teach us, their families and friends how to give and how we need to live. These kids have a way of reminding us who we really are, what is truly important and who we have the potential to become. Raising children, even if they don't have "special needs" is a challenging and life changing experience. (In my mind everyone has "special needs" or ways they could use a little extra love. Some needs are just more apparent than others.) I am amazed at what my kids have taught me about myself. Nash is an especially great teacher, he knows just how to get me outside of my comfort zone. Some days he can really push me to my limit but as I look back on struggles we've had and continue to have I can actually see the growth and feel the joy and satisfaction that come with that growth. It is true, they are angels. We really walked with a lot of angels today and it was awesome! <br />

Once there was a little girl who had two hamsters, Tootsie and Sucker. Her parents told her she could have her hamsters as long as she took care of them. She did a great job playing with them, feeding them, making sure they had water and cleaning out their cage. Sadly one day about a year later one of the hamsters passed away after eating some play dough. Shortly after that the little girl got busy with school, piano and friends. Her mom started having to feed the remaining hamster, clean out its cage and talk to it so it wouldn't be lonely. One day while cleaning out the hamster cage the kind mother remembered the deal and told the little girl that if she didn't start taking care of the hamster again it would be gone. Apparently the little girl didn't think the mom was serious. After all everyone loved the hamster even if was starving and stinky. Well one day the mom got brave and sold the hamster to a little boy who was excited to take care of it. Several days went by when suddenly the moment the mother had been dreading came. The little girl asked where her hamster was. The kind mother told her the truth, but suddenly the mother was not kind anymore. Now she was the meanest most cold hearted mother in the world. The little girl cried a lot and moped around missing her hamster for days. The mother cried too and had some sleepless nights. The mother felt really horrible especially when the girls teacher called to see why the girl had been so sad at school. Just when the mother was about to call the boy who now owned the hamster to see if she could buy it back, the handsome dad came to the rescue. He stepped into the middle of the drama promising both the mother and the girl that this was a good learning experience. He explained once again why the hamster was gone and what we could do to learn from it. He also promised the girl that if she kept up on her other responsibilities during the winter she could try again with a new pet in the spring. It still hurt for awhile but the little girl started looking forward the getting a bunny in the spring. Then one day the girl said "Mom I can't believe you gave my hamster away!" The mom said, "Neither can I!" Then they both laughed.<br />

My favorite part of the first day of school: Milk n' cookies tell me all about it time!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Bryn was so happy to report that not only is her teacher the oldest teacher in the school, but the nicest too! (Funny story: We went to the school to find out who Brynlee's teacher was, not knowing any of the 2nd grade teachers at all, not even their names. We found her name on the list under Mrs. Alldredge. As we were walking away Bryn said, "I am so lucky! I always get the teacher I want!" </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Me:"Maybe your lucky because you always want what you get."</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Bryn:"Mom, that makes no sense at all!"</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Hopefully someday it will! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
One of my favorite quotes is "Happiness isn't about getting what you want, its about wanting what you get."</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I digress, now back to Mrs. Alldredge...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
She sent Bryn home with a fun M&M game to play to help her tell me all about the first day.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Brynlee is so excited that her teacher has a lot of cats just like Nana! One of them is even going to have kittens that her teacher might bring to class....if that doesn't get you excited for school I don't know what will! =) </div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
And he wanted to wear his crown to school. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Ridge and I took him so I could see his classroom and meet his new teachers. He is going to a small group kindergarten that is not at our home school. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
When we got there all of the little kindergarteners were playing on the playground outside the classroom doors waiting for the teachers to come. The boys jumped right in the mix. At first it was sweet to watch them, but then I started to have a panic attack.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
How could I leave him at the strange school we had never been to with teachers that I had never met?! How could I leave him there without his big sister being just across the hall?! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It was really hard for me!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We met the teachers and they seemed nice but I stuck around as long as I could. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Finally after they told me twice I could leave I did. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It wasn't a happy ride for me or Ridge! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Ridge cried and cried that he wanted to go to school with Nash and I cried because I hated leaving my baby on his own! I didn't expect it to be so hard for me to let Nash go to kindergarten especially since he went to three years of preschool! It shouldn't be anything new but I hadn't realized how having Brynlee there at the same school, looking in on him every once in awhile and giving me updates all the time about what she saw him doing had been so important! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I need to make friends with some kids at his school who can tell me what he does there!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
By the time his bus brought him home I was so relieved! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
He made it through the day and came home with a smile on his face!</div>

Food for thought taken from a <a href="http://www.lds.org/general-conference/2012/10/be-anxiously-engaged?lang=eng" target="_blank">talk by Elder M. Russell Ballard</a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="background: rgb(249, 246, 237);">
<span style="color: #2f393a; font-family: "Lucida Sans Unicode","sans-serif";"><span style="font-size: x-small;">"Honeybees are driven to pollinate, gather nectar, and condense
the nectar into honey. It is their magnificent obsession imprinted into their
genetic makeup by our Creator. It is estimated that to produce just one pound
(0.45 kg) of honey, the average hive of 20,000 to 60,000 bees must collectively
visit millions of flowers and travel the equivalent of two times around the
world. Over its short lifetime of just a few weeks to four months, a single
honeybee’s contribution of honey to its hive is a mere one-twelfth of one
teaspoon.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="background: rgb(249, 246, 237);">
<span style="color: #2f393a; font-family: "Lucida Sans Unicode","sans-serif";"><span style="font-size: x-small;">Though seemingly insignificant when compared to the total, each <span class="highlight1"><span style="background-color: #fefbbf;">bee</span></span>’s one-twelfth of a teaspoon of honey is vital to
the life of the hive. The bees depend on each other. Work that would be
overwhelming for a few bees to do becomes lighter because all of the bees
faithfully do their part...</span></span></div>

love and care for our neighbors as ourselves. Imagine what good we can do in
the world if we all join together, united as followers of Christ, anxiously and
busily responding to the needs of others and serving those around us—our
families, our friends, our neighbors, our fellow citizens...</span></span></span></div>

<div style="background: rgb(249, 246, 237);">
<span style="color: #2f393a; font-family: "Lucida Sans Unicode","sans-serif";"><span style="font-size: x-small;">These simple, daily acts of service may not seem like much in
and of themselves, but when considered collectively they become just like the
one-twelfth teaspoon of honey contributed by a single <span class="highlight1"><span style="background-color: #fefbbf;">bee</span></span>
to the hive. There is power in our love for God and for His children, and when
that love is tangibly manifest in millions of acts of Christian kindness, it
will sweeten and nourish the world How do we ingrain this love of Christ into
our hearts? There is one simple daily practice that can make a difference...</span></span></div>

<span style="color: #2f393a; font-family: "Lucida Sans Unicode","sans-serif";"><span style="font-size: x-small;">That simple practice is: In your morning prayer each new day,
ask Heavenly Father to guide you to recognize an opportunity to serve one of
His precious children. Then go throughout the day with your heart full of faith
and love, looking for someone to help. Stay focused, just like the honeybees
focus on the flowers from which to gather nectar and pollen. If you do this,
your spiritual sensitivities will be enlarged and you will discover
opportunities to serve that you never before realized were possible.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

Brady pushed the boys in the stroller and Brynlee and I ran after them.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We could smell the beginning of autumn in the nice cool morning air</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
three beautiful bucks ran across the road in front of us and made dad's heart beat a little faster!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We ran across Hog Hallow, down the hill and across Westfield road which happens to be one of my favorite streets because it is lined with horse pastures, beautiful green fields and trees. Then we started the climb back up Pfeifferhorn and around to Matterhorn again.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We were enjoying being outside and feeling those good exercise endorphins running through us so much that when we reached our driveway we decided to ditch the stroller, grab the camera and head up the hill for a little hike. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We barely made it out of the driveway and the boys were already stopping to smell the flowers! :)</div>

It was such a beautiful evening! I really should have taken more pictures. Strawberry is amazing! Just before the sun set the water got really calm and glassy and we could see big black storm clouds and lightening off in the distance. As we pulled the boat out we watched a group of mama deer and their babies eating the grass and drinking at a spot where there was a little inlet. The sun set as we drove down the canyon into Heber. By the time we started down Provo canyon the sky was black and an amazing lightening show began. Everything would be black and then all of the sudden the sky would light up and the rugged silhouette of the mountains would appear in the sky for just an instant before it all went dark again!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
God makes the most amazing shows ever! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The kids fell peacefully asleep in the back seat while Brady and I listened to Unchained Melody, Stand By Me, and a bunch of "our songs". By the time we got to Provo it was pouring rain.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
It was so romantic that I decided to tell Brady all about the book "Jane Eyre" that I recently read and loved! I did my best to describe it to him, but how can you explain a masterpiece in twenty minutes?!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
He mostly just rolled his eyes at me which made me laugh because it looked so funny with a big band-aid stuck between them! Eventually we made it home put the kids to bed and glued his cut closed but you can see why I needed to blog about it so quickly! It was an awesome day!</div>

Nash got his birthday off to a good start by crawling in bed next to his Mama during the wee hours of the morning for a little snuggle. </div>
<div style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I held him next to me and listened to his breathing until he was asleep again. </div>
<div style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I thought of that day six years ago when Brady and I left our little sleeping Brynlee in bed early in the morning and headed to the hospital as fast as we could. </div>
<div style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Nash was on his way!</div>
<div style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Obviously that day was a little different than we had expected. </div>
<div style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
But it turned out to be different in such a positive amazing beautiful way!</div>

How grateful we are to have this awesome boy in our lives!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
When Nash and I woke up again, it was to Garrett's sweet voice downstairs begging someone to let him wake Nash up for his birthday. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
We got up and came downstairs. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Garrett in the most excited way yelled "Happy Birthday Nash!!"</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
And gave him the biggest bear hug!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
All the little kids got so excited and rushed over to give Nash hugs!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
He was loving it! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
A little bit of heaven on earth!</div>

Ashlyn and Ridge throwing snaps to get them prepared for the fireworks!</div>
<div align="center">
We went to the West Yellowstone fireworks which were fabulous! </div>
<div align="center">
Ridge and Garrett had so much fun racing back and forth across the field, marching, and playing with their glow sticks. Brynlee was pretty tired and while we were waiting she told me, "I think I've out grown the fireworks." She was wrong! Once they finally started she lit up and had about 40 comments for each firework! Almost every one was her favorite and half way into it she said, "I changed my mind, I still LOVE fireworks!"</div>
<div align="center">
I don't think anyone could ever out grow fireworks even if they tried! </div>
<div align="center">
What a fantastic way to celebrate the land that we love!</div>
<div align="center">
Happy Birthday America!</div>
<div align="center">
Once again I left my camera at the cabin so if your sending pictures, send some of the fireworks too please!</div>

Whenever we had the Allen family reunion in Park City my cousins and I would have so much fun racing down the Alpine slide! This time my cousins weren't there but my children's cousins were. I was pretty excited for them to keep the tradition alive!</div>

Nash had a breezy ride down the slide. <br />
He is working on potty training this summer. <br />
Right when I threw the sled up on the track I heard liquid hitting the pavement behind me. <br />
I turned around quick but there was no stopping it. <br />
Nash had soaking shorts, socks and boots. <br />
Thankfully the man behind us thought it was funny and held up the line while I hurried to strip off Nash's wet things, get his boots back on and get everything situated in the sled!</div>

I thought it would be good to do a little recap of 2013. Unfortunately I lost my phone that had most of my pictures on it so I only have a few pictures from the first few months of the year. January started off as not my favorite month even though we were had lots of fun with activities at the kids school and Bryn's basketball games. Brady was having to travel to Utah every week that month after having to do it every other week the previous few months. It had already gotten old and we were all tired of it! Brady loved the job he had and the people he worked with but we knew we needed something to change. Brynlee and Nash were having an especially had a hard time with Dad travelling so much. We weren't sure what we could change, but at the beginning of February Brady heard about a job opening up in Salt Lake that sounded like his dream job. At first we were a little hesitant but as we began discussing the possibilities, praying about it and finding out more about the opportunity we became very excited. It felt like a long shot but Brady contacted the company and they agreed to fly him back to their head quarters in Massachusetts for an interview on February 14th. He felt like the interview went well but they had other candidates that they were still interviewing so we didn't hear anything for a week or two. After what felt like forever Mass invited Brady to make a business plan and come back to their office on the last day of February to present it. Now if you know Brady you know he is passionate about planning! Lucky for us Brady had been working on his business plan for years! He has always wanted to be a general agent since entering the management side of financial planning and had been creating and using all kinds of ideas and strategies for building a better business for his entire career in the financial industry. I knew this would be a moment for him to shine and get to share his passion for the work he does. Once again he felt like the presentation went well but they had several other plans that needed to be presented before they could get back to him. On the 13th of March Mass contacted Brady to let him know they wanted to extend him an offer. They wanted to have one last conference call the next day. Fifteen minutes before that call that we had been anticipating for so long was going to happen Brady's dad Read called to let us know he was being taken to a hospital in SLC with life threatening blood clots in his lungs. Excited emotions to devastating emotions. We quickly packed our bags and I ran to get the kids from school while Brady had his phone call. Despite the shock from his dad's phone call, the call with Mass went well and they told him they would send him a formal offer/contract by the next week. I'm getting way to long winded for a blog, but after a couple of months everything finally worked out. Brady got the job as GA for MassMutual in Salt Lake and after a couple of scary weeks in the hospital Read was able to recover enough to return home!<br />

On April 2nd Brady was introduced to the SLC office of Mass Mutual as their new GA. He moved into an apartment close by the office that they provided for him until we could sell our house and move down there. At first we thought we would take our time looking for a place, selling the house and letting the kids finish school in Meridian but those plans quickly changed!</div>

We had a hard time leaving and driving back home to Idaho without Brady after such a wonderful weekend. At least we could see the light at the end of the tunnel!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Brady found a house for us in Alpine UT and we decided to close on it and move as soon as we could and once we decided that things happened quickly!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
We tried to be prepared for the move but with all the craziness of moving it felt like we didn't get to do all of the things in Meridian that we would have loved to do one last time before moving. Before we knew it movers where packing up our house and it was time to go! What a whirlwind!</div>

We love Meridian and all of our sweet friends there. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
It was such a blessing for us to have those great 5 years that we did in Meridian!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
It will always have a special place in our hearts!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

For my weak attempt at keeping up on my blog here are a few highlights from the last month or two. After 3 years, Nash graduated from Miss Molly's preschool at Mary MacPherson! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The teachers there are phenomenal! They went out of their way to help our boys while they were there and they were so extremely kind and supportive of our family. We love them and will always be thankful for their positive influence in our lives! I just love how these ladies treat every kid in their class like they are the most important and smartest kid there! They were even so kind to have an early graduation before we moved so Nash could be there. </div>

I also have to mention the boys bus drivers, Bonnie and Lorna. They are amazing and always so patient and happy even while they waited for us to find backpacks, get shoes on and coax Nash onto the bus. When I told them we were moving Lorna said, "Well you can't take Nash! We've practically raised him, he's been riding our bus since he learned to walk!" I had a darling picture of the boys with these special ladies but sadly it was on my phone that I lost on the Alpine slide last week. Wish I had backed up all the pictures and contacts from my phone cuz now they are all gone! =(</div>

Brynlee also said good-bye to her 1st grade class. That is her with her jacket over her head being "it" as they played corners one last time before the bell rang on her last day at Mary Mac.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It was really hard to say good-bye to all of our friends in Meridian! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Brynlee's friends had a surprise going away party for her. They "kidnapped" her and had a breakfast party where they made her the center or attention and promised they would all write to her. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
She of course loved it! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
My sweet friend Amy offered to have a good-bye party for all of us which I declined because I knew it would make me sad and I would cry and I try to avoid that. She still threw a surprise party for me which did make me cry but I loved it and was glad she did.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We absolutely loved the 5 years we had in Meridian.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It was home for us.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Ridge was born there and it was the only home Brynlee and Nash could remember.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The friends and neighbors we have/had there are amazing!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Good thing facebook, phones and blogs make it easier to stay in touch.</div>

On the 10th of May we packed up our sleeping bags, the children, Cassie and the hamsters. Quickly cleaned the house one last time, drove to Salt Lake quickly cleaned out Brady's apartment and came to our new home in Alpine.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Driving away from our home and neighborhood and so many people we love made it an emotional day for me...that and the fact that I hadn't been sleeping well had me more on the sad side of the fence than excited side. When we left Brady's apartment it started pouring rain. As we drove around the point of the mountain and headed into Alpine the sky cleared up, the sun came out and a beautiful double rainbow arched across the mountains right in front of us. It felt like it was just for me.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
It was breathtaking and all of the sudden I was so excited and felt so grateful and blessed to be in Alpine all under the same roof again!</div>

I grew up in Utah so for me it has felt like coming home. I love mountains and the ones here in Alpine do not disappoint! Every time I walk outside my eyes wonder up those beautiful rugged peaks. Brady and I kept commenting about the incredible mountains, apparently a little too much because after about a week Brynlee begged us to please stop talking about the mountains!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The top picture is the view of the mountains to the North of us. </div>

Looking down the street to the South you can see Utah Lake and in the distance (too far for my camera) you can see the Mt. Timpanogos temple.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I love the scenery here, the cool mountain breeze, the dark nights (no street lights = lots of stars), the crickets, the nice people, that there were lots of kids wearing cowboy boots with their shorts at the kids schools, and being closer to family. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Most of all I <strong>love</strong> having Brady home every night.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
As long as I have that I think I could live anywhere!</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Happy Fathers Day to all those wonderful hardworking dads everywhere!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I've had part of a song running through my head all week it goes like this: <br />
"Father's are so special with a very special love. <br />
They watch us and protect us. They guide us and direct us" How true that is! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I am amazed how much influence dad's have on their children especially as I watch Brady with our children. My dad has always been and still is a hero in my eyes, and I love seeing that it is the same for my children. They look up to their dad in every way! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
They miss him while he's away, even if its just for 8 hours of the day. I've noticed that they are always more calm and confident, more obedient and usually more happy and cheerful (as long as they've had their sleep!) when their dad is near. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Ridge tells me daily, "I want to be big like my dad!" And he's willing to pay the price too...he'll eat all his dinner, pick up his toys, and play nice with his brother when he knows he's being like dad. <br />
It works out well for me! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I am so glad that Brady is such a great example to our children! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And I am thankful for all of the fathers who are examples to me!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I love you all, thank you for doing what you do! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<strong>Happy Father's Day!</strong> </div>

I found the boys in the kitchen this afternoon helping themselves to spoonfuls of Nesquik. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The fun didn't end even when I took the can away.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It doesn't take much for these two to entertain each other!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
After being silly with the spoons they got serious about cleaning up their mess,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and licked all the spilled chocolate off the table.</div>

Nash has a thing for smashing eggs on the patio! We had a lovely Easter weekend. We had planned to go to a couple of Easter functions but that went by the wayside once Brady and the children started playing baseball out in the yard. Before the afternoon was over he had them all hitting home runs! </div>

Spring is so beautiful, I love weekends like this!</div>

Bryn's School Christmas Music Program - Bryn holding the neighbors puppy<br />
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">Bryn is doing great and loves
school! She is super responsible at taking care of her hamsters and her
brothers! She joined a basketball team and has been having fun learning how to play ball. She was a little nervous for her first game but she had a blast and even made two baskets! She takes
a morning Spanish class once a week that isn't her favorite because she
has to go to school early and doesn't get to ride the bus with her friends, but
she is learning Spanish so its worth the sacrifice! =) She is also in the last
semester of the Let's Play Music program and is having tons of fun with that,
she is working on composing her own piece so when she gets it done I'll have to post a video. She has been learning about Martin Luther King over the last couple weeks
in school and was shocked and so disappointed to learn that white people were
mean to people who had dark skin! She didn't particularly enjoy hearing stories about how people were treated
during the civil rights movement but Martin Luther King is now one of her hero's! She comes home so excited to tell me everything she learns about him and I love her passion for the work Martin Luther King did! One day she was telling me about Martin Luther King's dream and she said "I have a dream too, that more orphans will get adopted!" (The apple doesn't fall far from the tree!) On Martin Luther King Day she made a banner that said "We're Free!" to hang on the garage, sadly it got trampled on and ripped by the boys before we got it hung! One of my favorite things to do with Brynlee is read books before bed. We have been reading books by Laura Ingalls Wilder about her life growing up in the late 1800. It's so fun reading and imagining what life was like back then, so different from the lives we live! It takes us a long time to get through one of her books because we have so much to say after every chapter! We've tried to convince Brady that we should move somewhere where he can just hunt everyday and we can live off of the land but he thinks we'd die! We probably would but its always fun to dream! </span><br />

<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">Nash keeps busy! He is up every
morning way before the crack of dawn rearranging the house. He is our most
independent child even though he's the only one still in diapers! =) If he
wanted to use the toilet he would but he's usually too busy trying to shove toys
etc down there that he doesn't want to use it for lesser purposes. That would
ruin the fun and he wouldn't get to see his dad struggle to become a plumber in
all his free time! He knows how to get anything he wants in the kitchen and can
even run the microwave which sounds awesome except that melting toys stink and
start fires. We try to keep all of the appliances hidden or locked. I did wash
on Thursday and forgot to lock the washing machine and dryer...Friday morning I
found Nash in the laundry room with a load of stuffed animals going in the
washer and two plastic dinosaurs tumbling around in the dryer! He loves to play
computer games, but can't quite run the mouse yet, so he ropes Ridge or Brynlee
into running the mouse and he just tells them which game to play and what to
do. He can do the i-pad and touch screen computer at school all by himself and
likes that, they just don't have his favorite Curious George games. He
cracks us up with his hilarious laugh and keeps us smiling with all of his mischief
and crazy ideas. He definitely keeps things lively! I think he must get some of
his ideas from watching too much Curious George. If he wasn't so adorable and innocent he would be spending a lot of time in time-out!</span><br />

is doing well, he is one hard working kid! He follows Nash out of bed every morning and does his best to keep up with everything going on all day. He started preschool when he turned 3 back in October and has been absolutely loving it! He loves getting to be so grown up, riding the bus and playing with his pal Henry at school. He has been working really hard in speech therapy. It's slow
coming, but he tries so hard everyday and he's making progress. Ridge is such a good helper, he loves to help load and unload the dishwasher...if he keeps it up he'll have a really happy wife one day! He also loves to help Brady "fix" things around the house. As much as he loves school he still loves being home too. No matter where we go or how long we've been gone when we pull into the driveway he says, "We home!" and gives a huge sigh of relief! Ridge still thinks he's Buzz Lightyear. At his last doctors appointment Dr. Roy asked him if he was a boy or a girl. He said "No! I Uzz Ite-year!" Dr. Roy was laughing and said "Oh you're a super hero huh?" Ridge said yes and started shooting him with his imaginary laser that comes out of his arm. The look on his face when he does this is the best! He has all kinds of fun shooting that laser and flying around the house as Buzz Lightyear! He loves books and always makes sure that he and Nash both get their bedtime stories before Brynlee gets hers. We all love our little snuggle pup Ridgie-Roo!</span></div>

We had a wonderful Christmas day! It came and went too fast! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The children were <strong>so</strong> excited about all of the holiday festivities this year. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Brynlee loved going caroling, picking a gift for her teacher, and looking at lights. Nash loved all of the holiday treats (every time the doorbell rang he would start yelling "Nash's turn, Nash's turn" while running to open the door, then he would try and hug whoever was there) and he loved to admire the Christmas tree. Ridge loved "hoho" and finding the elf every morning.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We all loved the Christmas vacation from school and being able to be home together.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And of course we were all excited to open gifts and find what Santa brought on Christmas morning. </div>

Brynlee has grown so much this year! We are amazed at all of the things she is learning and all of the things she teaches us! She has a heart of gold and she is the only one who can get Nash to brush his teeth! We are so proud of all of the good decisions she is making and of the way she treats other people. In the past two weeks, she had a teacher bring her a plate of cookies and thank her for volunteering to go without a cookie when they were one short in class, another teacher sent her a letter in the mail thanking her for being so patient and kind to a boy in her class who has some behavior issues, and her school teacher let Brady and I know how Brynlee always puts her best effort into her school work. We are so blessed to have such a great girl in our family! We sure do love her! Happy Birthday Brynlee Kay!</div>

The kids have been so excited about their costumes this year! And to be honest, I've been pretty excited too! The kids<b> love </b>Toy Story! Nash's favorite toy is his Woody doll, if anyone asks Ridge what his name is he says Uz It-ear (Buzz Lightyear), and Brynlee has really been missing her Jessie doll that we lost at a campground so needless to say, the costumes have been a huge hit! I'm sure we won't be putting them away anytime soon!</div>

Brynlee also had a fun Halloween party! I only got a couple pictures of her because I had to stay at my station. She had a fun bobbing for a doughnut, making popcorn witch hands, reading a Halloween story, having cupcakes, and playing games! Celebrating holidays at school is so much fun!</div>

The pictures for this post really start at the bottom and go up. I got them on here backwards and can't get them to switch them around, but you get the idea.

Ridge is such a daddy's boy! He loves to imitate everything his dad does. Brady is so happy that Ridge is "taking hunting so seriously" at such a young age.<br />
