Brandonisms

February 2, 2008

Brandon informed me recently that he had changed his name. He is no longer just “Brandon.” He is now to be known as “Super Boy Brandon.” He told me that his name starts with an S now instead of a B. I think he was seriously wanting me to make the name change legal. Oh, […]

Snow galore

January 21, 2008

We have a whole bunch of snow here! This storm is a doozy! It took Jaden one hour to get to work this morning, and we only live about 5 minutes away on normal days. One hour! Holy cow. So he came home for lunch to dig out our driveway–at least a foot of snow […]

January 13, 2008

This weekend I made some job charts for Brandon and Annie. I’ve been meaning to do this for awhile and finally just did it. I sat with them and they helped me make a list of the main chores they need to do everyday, I thought that way they would have a say in what […]

January 9, 2008

I wanted to post the pictures I took of Brandon and Annie in their Christmas outfits before it’s NEXT Christmas, so here we go. The toughest was getting one of them together!!

Today was Brandon’s Holiday Program for preschool. He LOVES music time at school and has been so excited for the program! He kept posing and smiling for me and Jaden with the video camera and would wave every once in a while. They sang a ton of Christmas songs, threw in a few Hanukkah tunes […]

Some highlights from last week

December 9, 2007

Last week we went and saw the lights at Temple Square. The kids were really excited to ride on the “bullet train” (aka TRAX) all the way downtown. Brandon took this picture of us, with my big ol’ heavy camera! They each got their own map and Brandon helped keep track of the different stops […]

It’s beginning to look like a lot like Christmas….

December 4, 2007

I haven’t really been around these parts lately! Although last week I was in the mood to do some decorating, so the blog has been festive for awhile now. Jaden was out of town for the entire week last week, so now I’m trying to play catch up with everything. We’re so glad he’s home!! […]

And the verdict is in…..

November 19, 2007

Yep, we are having another GIRL!! We are SO excited. To all of you who predicted correctly, nice job! I actually thought we’d be having another boy. There goes my maternal instinct. Brandon said from the very beginning that it would be another sister, and he was right all along! Everything looks great, she is […]
