Mitchell

My little guy is getting so big! I can't believe he will be starting preschool this week. He is so excited to go to school, I am also excited for school so that I can maybe get a nap in on those two days. My friend Heidi took his pictures for me and I think they turned out amazing. Thanks Heidi!

Happy Birthday Dad!

Dad,
I just wanted to tell you how much I love you and how grateful I am that you are my dad. I know that I have not always been the easiest child to raise but no matter what the situation you always made me feel loved. You have always been supportive to whatever I have wanted to do. You are an amazing "Papa" and Mitchell loves to come and see you. Thank you for everything that you do for me and my family. I love you so much and can't imagine a better dad. I hope you have a great birthday.

Love, Bri

Relay 4 Life

Once again the family ventured out for another all nighter at Relay 4 Life. needless to say we must all be getting old,because a lot of us were losing our gusto about 2am. This kids had a good time and finally zonked out about 11pm. I had matching shirts made for all of us that were on the team. It was a fun night and all for a great cause.

Mothers Who Know — Latter-day Saint Women

In church yesterday the teacher showed this video. I thought it is such a good message. Also it made me think of those mothers around me who know. This is for all of you and i thank you for being such a great example to me. I am also thankful to be a daughter of a women who knew.

Updates to come....

I know, I am such a slacker at this blog thing. But I have a small excuse, I got a new camera for Christmas and I just barely had the software downloaded on to my computer. So I am hoping, once I find my camera, I can get this blog back up and going. More to come....

Snow, Snow, Snow

My poor little guy has been cooped up inside a lot this last week, because it has been so cold. But today wasn't to bad so we got all bundles up and went and played outside. We were in the backyard for a little while, but then I decided he needed a littl more room to make tracks so we went out into the field. He loved it!

Rigby Light Parade

Every year the town of Rigby puts on a light parade and what they call "Midnight Madness" at the first of December. I had never been before so I thought it would be fun to take Mitchell. He loved it until the fire trucks came by, he doesn't like loud sounds so the sirens did not go over very well. He wanted me to hold him and cover his ears. After the parade Santa Claus comes over to the library and hands out treats. Mitchell was really excited to see Santa Claus, so we waited in line in the freezing cold for about 15 minutes so that he could see "HO, HO, HO". After that we went shopping a little bit, all the stores in Rigby (there aren't many), stay open til around midnight and they have pretty good sales. It was really fun but I was sure glad to get home out of the cold.
