dear der..

hey so i'm just doing a picture post for ya again today! hope you enjoy!



in all his cowboy glory..



told me--mom, you tan(can) just tall(call) me number 5..



watched the superbowl at the burdens.. what a let down! pretty solemn group.

merr has learned to fold his arms!

& is trying to close his eyes!

megs & marc came up for the weekend.. here's lil donna joon..

merr thinks he's big stuff.. has to sit like the big kids on the bleachers..

so just the same old same old here! not too much is happening.. we've had good weather lately, we even took the kids to the park the other day! crazy for jan/feb... i'm ready for the spring. for the sun to shine.. and not have to bundle up to go outside. but if it's going to storm and snow and such, i wish it would. b/c we need it very much!

merr is such a copier these days. he follows us around and tries to do the same things we are..
he's quite the kid, and we just love him!

breck likes to dress up. he goes from wrestling man, to baseball man to cowboy, etc.. through out the day. some times he sticks to one a day.. but everyday lately he's something.

i'm sorry this isn't any thing big or a long letter.. but i hope everything is going good! you'll have to write a longer letter this week, last weeks was so short!

here's a good quote for you!

Elder Richard G. Scott:

you cannot today remotely imagine what that decision to be unwaveringly obedient to the Lord will allow you to accomplish in life. your quiet, uncompromising determination to live a righteous life will couple you to inspiration and power beyond your capacity now to understand..

well that 's all for today! take care! we love you!!
