just part of the nightly routine..

favorite picture from yesterday..

hey der.. just saying a quick hello! we love and miss you!
breck has his 1st t-ball game tomorrow. o is he excited. and they are the cougars. it's all he's been talking about lately. he wonders what shirt to wear; and when i told him they get a shirt that is their "jersey" he can hardly stand it! that kid is something else!! he talks about his coach, and about how he is going to slide and how he'll have real t-ball/baseball friends {opposed to his imaginary ones:)} and on and on..
merrik is just his busy little self! getting more and more stubborn. also getting very independent; at least he tries to be! he copies everything we say and is starting to speak a lot clearer. he's a nut! you'll like him. he's a cool little kid.
well take care! be safe!

i've been wanting one of these for a while now..

elder brew..

hey dude! how are you? we are all good here! busy, crazy, but good!

breck wants you to know he has some new tractors. and a new baseball belt.

(timmy's parents found some matchbox cars at a yard sale then gave him a tackle box to carry them in.. he loves them.)

mason is here this morning and wants to tell you they have guinea hens! and they've gotten like 20 eggs. but he wishes they could get 12 a day, b/c that would be awesome!

we signed breck up for little t-ball, haha it should be funny! he is so excited! he says he's going to slide in his game. (he is obsessed with sliding lately)

well take care! have a wonderful week! we love you!!

last year, about this time..

merr and colter

dearest elder brew..

be prepared for a lot of pictures! i fell asleep on the couch (had a headache all evening) and woke up about 2:30. so as i was turning off lights and came into the office to turn the computer off, i realized what day it was! so yea, the time i wrote this is very early! sorry if things don't make a whole lot of sense! i just wanted to make sure you got a good letter/note!

here are a few pictures of our last week!



saije married spencer this weekend, and i didn't get any pictures of them! sorry! they are really cute though! but i did get a few of all the kids waiting outside!
this is kloe jo. ky and kodi's lil gal. they just found out they are having a boy! so kyson krew will be here in sept i think.. isn't she cute!

l-r dixie, ruthi, marni, ty is on peyton's back

breck and ty.. smashing bugs!!

peyton with the boys..

lala turned 3!!

timmy's bro. chad came for a visit, so we've had a cowboy around these parts lately..

uncle chad gave him a real "towboy rope".

he's been wearing the whole get-up lately. hat, boots, wranglers, the button up shirts. even a cowboy coat.. he's so funny!

merr loves his bed. he's pretty good about going to sleep. he is all over the place though!
the brown animal in the picture is his bear, the yellow one is a giraffe and under them is a little dog. those are his favorite things right now. especially bear and dog. he carries them around all day giving them loves..

breck loves his baseball jammies!

merr loves bubbles!

and we love you!! have a wonderful week!!

i'm loving it..

for the last year.. (or so it seems)

i have been missing my long hair, so i've been trying to grow it out (for forever..)
last week i saw these pictures and wanted my long hair even more! i decided i can't wait for it to grow, it needs a little help..
so today i'm going to see colbi; and by this afternoon, i'll be a lot closer to doing a lil of this with my hair..

i'm so excited!!
