Bryton enjoying an Ice Cream Cone

As you can see Bryton is really enjoying this ice cream cone. I was actually sharing this cone with him, but some how he took it away from me and went to town eating it. He loved it!

Here are some Halloween Pictures of Hunter and Bryton. Some of these pictures are of Hunter's school Halloween party. Hunter painted his face all by himself, he did a great job! Hunter was a Star Wars trooper and Bryton was a dragon. Hunter did a lot of trick or treating and Bryton had fun being his dad and Nana. Clay said that he enjoyed answering the door for the trick or treaters. Bryton would race him to the door to see them. Next year should be even better.

I just think he is so darn handsome!!

Grandpa Wood

One month ago today my wonderful Grandpa Wood passed away. It has been so very hard to lose him. He was a great man and a great grandpa to me and my boys. He was 95 years old and he has been like a dad to us for the 18 years when my dad died. He took great care of my mom and all of us kids up to the day he died. The day before he died I called my sister and told her that she should come say goodbye in case he died. She came down to see him and 30 minutes before we were going to go see him, my aunt called and said he died. We went to see him anyway and said goodbye. It was so hard to see him like that. Then that night I went to the mortuary and gave him his last hair cut. That was the hardest thing I have ever had to do but I knew that I wanted to be the one that did it. He always asked me to cut his hair and I knew that he wanted it done before he died and I feel bad that he was too sick for me to cut it. I love him and will miss him so much. I feel a little selfish in thinking that I still want him here, but I know that he is now my dad (his son) and my grandma. What a joyous reunion that must of have been. I would love to have seen the great big smile my dad had on his face when he was reunited with his dad. I love and miss all of them and I am so grateful to have had them in my life and my boys life. Till we meet again.

Yesterday I turned on Hunter's Primary songs and Bryton started to sing and dance. He was a lot louder at singing but I grabbed the camara a little late. But you get his funny dance move. He loves to sing with the music but he tends to be louder than the music. He can entertain anyone for hours.

Hunter's Payback

Bryton's favorite thing to do is sit on you. If you lay on the floor he will run up and sit on your back or head depending on his mood. Hunter's favorite thing to do is torment his brother, so Bryton finally had enough and and sat on his head. I told Hunter payback, it's coming and it will only get worse when he gets older. Hunter thinks it's funny for now. They do like to have fun. :)

Happy 5th Anniversay (Sept. 11th)

It has been a long a hectic week, in which I almost forgot to wish Clay a Happy Anniversary and late on posting our picture.
Anyway.....
Clay and I have been married 5 years and together just about 8 years. I can't believe how fast our 5 years has gone. We have had our ups and downs and crashes and whirlwinds and we are still here and going strong. We have 2 wonderful boys and love spending time as a family. I love Clay for what a great dad he is. No matter how hectic the day or week or how tired he is, he always finds time to spend with his boys. I love how he gets down and plays with them like he is a kid again. I know the boys love him. I love Clay for a great husband he is. He can see when I am at my limit and ready to break down. I love that he tells me to take is easy or take rest for a while. I love that he helps me with the house cleaning and helps me with the boys. I especially love the fact that he is so supportive of my relationship with my mom. I love that he helps her and knows that she loves him like he is her son. I love that during the most stressful time for me he has been there to fill in at home when I can't be there. I love going on our once in a while quick dinner dates or motorcycle rides. I love the fact that he puts up with me and my nagging. Even though he may not express how he feels, I can look at him and know that he loves me and is there for me. I love you so much, thanks for 5 wonderful years.
