20 March 7

Wow, time flies! Happy Birthday 11 year old!

When you were two we used to ask you, "When's your birthday Brad?" and you would say, "20 March 7!"

The day our lives changed FOREVER!Happy BIRTHday Baby!

Sent from Heaven!

Just a baby with my baby.

Too cool!

Brad, we are all about you!

Starting school.

The first little glasses.

We are so proud of your accomplishment of earning your Arrow of Light! Way to go Boy Scout!

The favorite place to shop.

We cranked up Metalica and cruised from store to store!

The things you're "in to" sure have changed over your eleven years. iPod speakers, black Vans......

We rented a car and went shopping so he could pick out his own clothes!

What do you want for your Birthday lunch? "A salad." Wow, you've come a long way from chicken stars.

Of course skinny jeans!

Wow where have the years gone? Eleven years ago today our lives changed as we welcomed our first son into the world. Little Bradley Ethan weighing in at 7 pounds 12 ounces and 21 1/4 inches long at 3:21 AM. No longer our little son, but a young man. Happy Birthday Son! You have been the light of our lives since the day you were born. We have loved every minute of being your parents. We are proud of the young man that you've become and we're looking forward to watching you grow up, just don't rush it okay?

Principal's List is a good thing!

If you are anything like me, when I heard my boys made the Principal's List I thought, "Oh no, what did they do?" But this list is a good thing. It means they had a 3.5-4.0 GPA! Way to go Brad and Breven for doing your best at school. It paid off! We are so proud of you.

Boogie Nights

He is really loving my hair. Can't you tell?

Watch out Charlie's Angels! The feathered look is making a come back.

Don't the white shoes and belt bring out his collar?

So Friday night was the annual Elders Quorum BBQ full of fellowshipping, fantastic food, and FUNKYTOWN?! Bryce came up with the hilarious idea to arrive at the get together dressed in our best seventies attire. Our friends Cade and Erica were such great sports to join in the fun. (What happened to the pics of Cade?) His pants were the best! (It's the pleats. He's going to have to take the pants back to the pant store-Ron Burgandy) What a blast it was! For all who attended thanks for being such good sports. Let's rock the eighties next time.

It's Official!

We're moving back home! It still doesn't seem real, but we can't take it back now. Bryce officially got his transfer date of July 01 and so on the last day of school, we're headed out. We said we'd be here for about a year, that became six! We really didn't expect to love it here so much. It has been our little gem in the desert. So many people here have welcomed us into their families and we can never thank them enough. We will leave a piece of our hearts here always, and look forward to retirement where we can call ourselves "snow-birds." Until then, we'll be out for river floats, camping trips, and of course FRIENDS!

Sunday Afternoon

The moon coming up, the fire simmering down.

Little (and Big) Pyros

A cold dinner works for us.

What a way to spend a Sunday afternoon! Brad came up with the idea of going on a picnic dinner. We packed up some sandwhiches and ate under the moon. The boys lit their fire with a flint and all. It sure is easy to please our family.
