More Brynn

Sorry I haven't posted more of my other children lately, but we just got these photos of Brynn in. They were taken by our good friend Chris Young.

I think you might be able to see why we love this girl so much...

Brynn

Not that I want her to grow, but I love this photo, and Brynn looks so much older than she really is. She doesn't look like a baby in this--she looks more like a young girl.

Great Friends

Last night Lindsay and I were taken to P712 for my birthday. Our wonderful friends Jon and Tanya Keller treated us (big bill--thanks, guys!) and we had a great time! It's so good to have devoted friends that you can talk to about anything (leaving babies in cars, wanting to smack disrespectful kids, "Viva la Little Bear!"). We have known Jon and Tanya for many years. And even though months might go by without seeing each other (stupid raising of children and having a life) we love the time we are together to catch up!

Last Halloween. I wish we had a better picture with the four of us together!

Favorite Night of the Year

I love the first Monday of October! Our Halloween decorations are up, the air is turning chilly, and Fall is on! For family night we always go get a pumpkin from "The Pumpkin Man" on 1600 North and then to Kneaders to choose a Halloween treat. This year I got a pumpkin, chocolate chip, cream cheese cake. Holy Crap! Wow! Then we come back to the house, pop some popcorn, spread out some blankets and watch "It's the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown." I love this night! I hope we do this until my boys leave on a mission--and that they love it each time.

Attacked By Rodents (of smaller size)

Last week we discovered a pack of baby racoons that live in our irrigation tunnel. We have seen 6 at a time coming out and eating the grapes between our property and Old Man Walker's. Cute little buggers--but, yes, I'm sure they carry rabies.

Final Day of Sequels

These last two are greats! There are many more, but I reserved this list for some of my favorites.

I LOVE HARRY POTTER! The books and the movies are so fantastic! Film one and two are decent, but it isn't until the third that the film series starts to become its own. Everyone talks about the third film being the best and its not hard to see why. Go back and watch it. The performances are much better and the directing and storyline are more focused. I loved these last two, but this third film is just great!

Most say The Bourne Ultimatum is the best film, but I disagree. Supremacy has more emotion--he's avenging the death of Marie. Great performances and great all-around film making.
