FUTURE SO BRIGHT...

I dare somebody to say that I don't have the two cutest boys in the whole world! I love it when they come to see me at work--so does the whole office. I can hear them from the front door all the way to my office saying, "see daddy, see daddy, see daddy". It's the greatest thing ever. They come in, give me hugs and kisses, tear up the office and then they're gone. It's the best part of my day!

MORMON HELPING HANDS

Kept meaning to put these pics up and never did. We got to make another hurricane relief trip this year. Gustav wan't near as bad as Katrina, but don't tell that to the folks in this neighborhood. This is by far the hardest work I've ever done--but also some of the most fun and rewarding weekends I can remember. You forge such a great bond with the guys in your work crew. And this year we really roughed it--no Dan Stansel to rent a trail with AC for us to sleep in. Just a gym floor and a fan in the corner run off a generator--not to mention ice cold showers on the sidewalk which are always a blast.

Catchin up

So it has been awhile since I have posted, but I will try to catch up a little. Halloween was great. Cole dressed up as a cowboy for school, a crocodile wrestler with Joshua, and a blue clone trooper. Parker on the other hand was barely able to keep half of an elmo costume on. But we had fun. When Joshua took Parker trick-or-treating, he finally got the hang of saying trick or treat, then didn't stop. He would say trick or treat, or thank you all night long. It was pretty funny. This picture of Parker with his backpack is when we were on our way to church. He loves to wear his backpack anywhere we go, but especially when we take Cole to school and Co

le has his on. They are getting to be good friends and it is fun to see them go off together and play. Cole was making a thankful owl at school and his teacher asked him what he was thankful for. He said Parker. He adores him and I think the feeling is mutual. How fun it is to have two boys close enough that they can be this way. What fun ages these are!
