Happy Birthday, Grandpa !!!!

Fun at Daycare

I have gotten bad at blogging, got caught up in the Facebook thing. Here are a few recent pictures of the boys at daycare (Thanks Miss Stephie). Braden can often be seen with a pacifier in his mouth and I am afraid it will be a hard habit to break. I better start now!

Tyler - Summer road trip with Rich

I flew Tyler into Dallas after I graduated from tech school for the Air Guard so we could spend some time together on my drive home. I was bummed because his flight out of Denver was delayed into Dallas. I'd planned on taking him to a Texas Rangers baseball game that night. We did stop at Texas Motor Speedway the next day to watch some qualifying for the NASCAR Truck Series - they are very, very loud. Did I say they were loud? We, also, went to the old and new Texas Stadiums (Dallas Cowboys) and Arlington Park which is home to the Rangers.
On to Colorado - we checked out the Air Force Academy which is absolutely beautiful (those are some lucky cadets) and made up for missing the Rangers game in Texas by watching a Rockies game in Denver. We checked out the Broncos stadium, too.
On to Utah - this time it was soccer. We stopped and watched a Real Salt Lake (major league soccer) game.
I have to say this was one of the best road trips I've had and I can't imagine a better opportunity to spend time with Tyler. I hope we'll be able to have more trips like this.

Little Richard

Gone fishing and others...

Butter is our new yellow lab. She is great fun and really keeps our black dog, Jack, company while we're away at work and play. Braden is growing fast - he is crawling everywhere and pulling himself up. Connor is really loving his baby brother. It is going to be so much fun when the two can really play together (and hopefully not fight). We love and miss you all.
