daffodils..

one of my favorite parts of spring!

{don't they just make you smile?!}

o mr. ty, we sure miss you..

can you come up to visit sometime soon? go ahead and bring your family. we like to see them again too!!

just because..

this kid is too cool.


hey der- hope your big day was a good one! we were thinking about you!

this merrik kid is quite the funny guy. he gives these crazy cheesy grins all day now. he's a good kid, but a busy little one! the weather was beautiful today so we were outside and he just started off down the road! or sat right in the middle of our little driveway! he is quite the character. he is talking so much more and copies everything we do!

breck is still his crazy little self. right now he is totally into wrestling, but he's also a basketball player and a cowboy! depends on his mood i guess! he's doing so good with his letters and the sounds they make. he'll ask what does potato start with? so we say p-p-p-potato. what letter says that? and he'll tell you which one. he doesn't have them all down, but he's doing awesome!
did you notice the pictures on your b-day post a couple back? yea those are the most recent ones, so maybe it's time for some new ones!!
well goodbye for now! have a wonderful week. we love you!

p.s. you have any questions about anything, just let us know!

{if anyone else is reading this, don't be alarmed with my baby in the road. we live on a dirt road (at the end of it), i was 2 feet away from him and you can hear the cars coming down it from far away!}

little boy nestling..

they have a little wrestling club going now. you have to be 4 to compete. breck is only 3, so he's just there to hang out and practice, but he's loving it. he asks everyday if it is little boy wrestling yet.

he and holdie go after it. it is so cute to watch.

k, maybe this is the one..

hey der..

hey bud, so we'd like some new pictures of you! seriously it's been a while. breck wants to see what you've been up to!

he told us today you are his favorite uncle. we asked why and he said it was because you are on a mission. he said he doesn't want to talk to you while you're gone(like at Christmas) just when you come home. and he was planning on hiding and scaring you when you came! {he's a nut! all kinds of crazy ideas lately} so we explained that we'd be going to the airport to meet you, like we did when Jordan came home and he got so excited. so he's all for that now. he's a cool little guy, too dang smart!

timmy's just started a little wrestling club of sorts. for kindergarten age and up. they've only had 1 practice so far, but they're doing it 2 nights a week. o boy breck is in heaven. he's too young to actually compete in the little tournaments they have{you have to be 4} so next year. but he thinks he's pretty big getting to go practice. the little guys are so cute. they are so tiny and just rolling around with huge smiles on their faces! i forgot my camera yesterday, but i'll take some pictures on thurs. it's so funny!

merrik is one busy dude. he is all over the place, into everything. he's talking and signing a lot more and is feeling way better {he had ear infections and is getting some molars} so he's pretty much back to his happy crazy little self! you'll like him. he's awesome. he just got his first real hair cut/buzz. it looks really good.
you'll have to wait until next week for pictures though because they aren't on my computer yet and i'm trying to hurry because it's late here!!
we love you! be careful!!

p.s. happy birthday! you old man:)

we're working on our time periods..

(such as.. days of the week, years, hours, a while, etc..)

B: bye mom. i'm going to the church for my mission. i'll be home in two whiles..
