Update

Sorry for the long time no post, things have been crazy around here! We have been celebrating b-days, playing lots in the summer sun, traveling and drum roll please...taking boards!!!!! I am so proud of my hubby, he really studied hard and stuck to it, and I am sure that he did well! So hopefully the slides show will catch us up!
A quick update....I am one year older and wiser too, busy and happy. Brett can take that wiser away from me for boards purposes only! He took them on the 28th. and let me tell you he was Mr. calm and collected! I was a widow for a couple of weeks and I am soooo happy to have my husband back. Because Brett is so active in the kids life, it got to one point when we were dropping him off at school that Braxton said, "is this Daddy's school, this where he lives?" It was crushing for Brett, so now time is spent making that up to the little guy who idolizes his Dad! Brax is turning 3, he is so big(not literally) and such a good boy. He is successfully potty trained, although out and about is still a struggle. He totally loves Buzz and Woody still and is liking Deigo more. He is way too smart for his own good. There really isn't anything getting by him these days. He has some super funny quotes! And the other day he decided Jozalyn was hungry and started to feed her (by lifting his shirt up), and I just said you don't quite have the equipment for that son! Jozalyn is a rolling machine and is really talking and beginning to scoot. Her two bottom teeth are up and showing! She is such an angel I didn't even know she was teething! She is happy and sweet, and still the spit up queen! And just remember bald is beautiful, okay so some hair is coming in!

Happy Birthday to my wonderful wife!




Just wanted to take a moment to wish Jen another happy birthday. It was a lot of fun and I was impressed that Jen could keep up cosidering her age. At any rate we had a lot of fun, despite all of my spoiled surprises. It is always a good evening spent celebrating the life of the person you love the most and spoiling her like she deserves. She is an amazing woman who has has supported me through some rough spots, gave up a job she loved and left the comfortable familiarity of Idaho, and her natural parenting and child rearing skills would even make that British nanny chick jealous. She has also put all her dreams on hold and has selflessly adopted mine as her own. I love you sweetheart and I am grateful for the day that you blessed with world with your arrival but even more so for the day that dropped your standards just enough to settle for a life long service project. HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

PROPS TO MY SWEET HUBBY! THANK YOU BABE!

HAPPY 4th!



One of my favorite holidays where we celebrate our independence! We had a great day, with a fabulous parade, even Brett liked, then fun with friends, and a great night out at Joe's. To top it off we had a great display of fireworks! This was the first year that Brax really enjoyed himself. He loved the parade and was so thrilled and bewildered at the same time as to why all of these people where just giving him candy and great things, so much for the, "don't take candy from stangers!" We wake up and went to the best park ever with our great friends Megan and Jeremy. We went out on the lake boating and played in the, "fountain playground," and the sandy beach and of course had a pic nic, it was great! Then went home and crashed after a pizza party. Then Sunday came church and yet another BBQ, which was an all day affiar, but we had to wait til' it got dark to roast smores (thanks Stacie and Charly)! Thanks Jim (and Kim) for the greatest smoked ribs ever! Anyway, it was a busy fun, fabulous weekend!
