My Baby Turns 32

Tuesday was Jamie's birthday. She's 32. Wow! That means I'm how old??? Oh my gosh. How fast the years have flown and she is now a mother of 4 cute people. I love this girl and hope that she has a wonderful life to come.

9-11-11

Today is the 10th anniversary of 9-11, a day not easily forgotten. When we got to church today, there were flags posted. It really was breathtaking to see them. The pictures do no justice, but at least I have a picture so that I can remember today, also.

I remember exactly what we were doing on 9-11. I had taken the day off on 9-11, because the next day my mother and I were flying to Germany. Spence was eating his breakfast at the counter in the kitchen while watching the news on TV. Then it happened. He called me in and we just stared at the TV. It was horrible, and it quickly continued to get worse as time passed. Needless to say, there was no trip to Germany that year.

A Little About Tyson Jacob

Tyson is a happy 9 year old with lots of talents and abilities. He knew the names of all the planets when he was just about 18 months old. He started talking at such an early age it was incredible. He seems to like basketball more than any sport and also enjoys baseball. He will start 4th grade in the fall of 2010. He has already traveled alot with me for his young years, to southern Utah, Texas, Germany and Switzerland. He is a real thinker and enjoys spending time with his grandpa Spencer, shooting, fly tying, golf and fishing.

A Little About Brecklyn Brianne

Brecklyn is the only girl in the family and so she has a special place in my heart. She is a pretty "Tiny Dancer" just like her mom always was. She is starting kindergarten in the fall of 2010 and just can't wait. She loves to go walking with grandma Sonja and never says no when I want to walk just a little farther. She makes friends easily and even makes friends at places such as the McDonald's playground. She has received several trophies at her dance performance competitions where her group seems to always get 1st place.

A Little About Logan Spencer

Logan is going to be in Pre-school in the fall of 2010. He is a very active 4 year boy. He enjoys soccer, just like his dad and basketball, just like his big brother, Ty. He and Ty are not at all alike and look and act totally different. It is hard to believe that they are brothers! Logan loves to play in the sandpile as my blog shows and doesn't think fishing is such a great sport. Afterall, why should it take so long just for one measly little fish? He learned to ride his bicycle at age 3 and loves to be grandpa's little buddy.

A Little About Grayson

He's here, born June 30-, on his great-grandmother's birthday. That makes him super special. 7 lbs. 3 oz. 18 1/2 inches. He's a little guy, blonde and sweet. He is definitely a "Momma's boy" and will only allow others to hold him for a very short time. Then he lets you know he is very unhappy. But I am sure this will change eventually and he will find out other people are fun and interesting too. We love this little guy and look forward to see what he thinks about his very first Christmas!
