Who we are

My photo
We are a strange little band of characters trudging through life sharing diseases and toothpaste, coveting one another's desserts, hiding shampoo, borrowing money, locking each other out of our rooms, inflicting pain and kissing to heal it in the same instant, loving, laughing, defending, and trying to figure out the common thread that bound us all together. My family is the reason I get up in the morning, go to work and come home to see their beautiful faces!

Our Doggie Rocky!

We love our dog Rocky!  He is the best dog ever!!!  He has so much personality and is a spoiled brat.  Brayden and I love to take pictures of him.  Here are some pics we took of him today.

He's sticking his tongue out at me while I am taking his picture


The picture after hes like "what I didn't do anything look how innocent I look".


This dog loves his life, and we love him!! He brings so much joy and happiness to us!!  What a good boy!

Brayden playing at the Childrens Museum

We go to the Museum about 2x's a week for classes.  Today our cooking class was cancelled, apparently not enough kids were interested in yummy hot bananas.  Its ok because next week is pizza cooking class and no kid can resist PIZZA!!!  So we stayed and played at the museum.  we ran into our next door neighbors so Brayden played with them!!  They had so much fun!

Hmm what costumes should they choose?

Brayden and the neighbor girl in their costumes so cute!!

Pumpkin Boy!


The neighbor girl was so cute in her dress, hat, and high heels!


The neighbor boy and clifford, he calls Brayden his best friend they are very nice kids!

At The River Walk

Since Brayden is now Homeschooled it is very important that we excercise daily.  He doesn't have a typical recess to run around with other kids to stay fit.  So lately we have been riding bikes along the river walk its a total of 6 miles to the end and back to our house.  Today we took pictures along the way!







In addition to riding our bikes we go to the athletic club were they have P.E. classes for the kids they play basketball, dodgeball, tag, etc.  The club also has open swim that we attend.  Every Tuesday our homeschool group gets together and we play sports we are currently playing Baseball!  We also find time to go to taekwondo 2x's a week!! Mom has also signed Brayden up for the Presidental Challenge where he can go online and log his daily fitness activities and monitor his progress.  He can win awards, medals, and t-shirts along the way!

Pics of our cute little town!

These are just random pics of the town we currently live in.  Some of the houses here are really amazing.  There is also alot of history in this town from underground tunnels that you can tour, the unique houses, The fallout shelter in the downtown area, and recently we were watching the history channel a show about unique weapons throughout the wars and our town had a military base that was very important during world war 2.  So enjoy!
