Terry's birthday was somewhat uneventful, I did somewhat (I say somewhat because my wonderful brothers kinda blew the surprise) mange to surprise him with a dinner at Claim Jumper with most of our families. It was fun though.

Shoulder Devil
I have the most imaginative child on the planet. On the way to Grandie's yesterday Samantha began to tell me about shoulder devils and shoulder angels. We were talking about how satan traps you by saying a little bit won't hurt (deep conversation for a tuesday afternoon) Here is how our conversation went;
Mom: Satan tells us a little bit won't hurt, that is how he gets us to do bad things.
Sam: Like shoulder devils?
Mom: HUH?!?
Sam: You know, like shoulder devils and shoulder angels, I have them don't you?
Mom: (again) HUH?!?
Sam: Like when your friends need help and there all "Help me, help me" and the shoulder devil says "Don't help them, laugh at them" and the shoulder angel says "Help your friends" That is what my shoulder devil and angel say. they are real, in my imagination anyway!!
This is a typical conversation with my sweet little girl. She definately keeps thing interesting!
This is an old picture but one of my favorites!!

Life through the eyes of a 3 year old
We bought Colby a camera for Christmas, well when it came time to wrap the gifts we couldn't find the camera. As I was cleaning out my closet yesterday VIOLA, there was his camera. I am really impressed with his picture taking skills. He has a great sense of composition. Here is a slideshow of just a few of his pics!

A Decade Already!?!
I can't believe that I've been the mom of this amazing kid for 10 years. It seems like only yesterday we were driving around, Brett in his car seat, telling me which pieces of heavy equipment were excavators and which were graders or scrapers. (he was 2 by the way)
The really scary thought is that in 18 short months he will be going to middle school. Grammy says that if you press with your thumb on their forheard it will keep them from growing up, Brett just says it hurts!! (It must work a little bit though because the size 6 underwear i just bought is a bit loose on him! Don't tell him I said that.)
Well Brett might not be getting much BIGger, but he certianly is getting older. His interests have matured from trains and blocks to science and arcitecture (legos) He changed from wanting to be a train engineer to an arcitectual engineer.
We were supposed to have a small party for Brett on Saturday for his birthday, but because of his recent bout of strep throat we had to settle for lunch at Olive Garden (Brett's Pick)
Brett had a great day and thanks to all who brought gifts by, he's been building, transforming, & gaming nonstop for 2 days now!!

San Francisco
We Just got back from San Francisco, & we had a great time inspite of the cold wet dreary weather. We did Alcatraz, shopped, went to aquarium and checked out a submarine and Liberty ship. We had a Fabulous time! Here are just a few of the highlights of our trip!!
