TALLER???????

It is official. I had Scott measure Joseph and I, to see who was taller. I was thinking he was the same height as I am. (5'8") Much to my shock, he has me by an inch. How many 11 year olds are 5'9"? This is a frightening thought. He is going to eat more, sleep more, Grow more and did I say eat MORE? Who can afford to take care of a GIANT! I think this is all Grandpa Lou's fault!
Joseph is such a good, kind, young man. He makes me so proud. He is a friend to everyone. I just can't believe he is growing up so fast.

Never hold a Kitty!!!!

This is the newest member of the Brill family. His name is Desmond. We are hoping that Phineas and Malachi will like him. My Mom and I went for a drive and ran into ,Keri, a friend of ours. We stopped to visit, and saw this really cute kitten. She was trying to find a home for three of them. He was soooooooo cute. My Mom was going to keep him, but we got to attached, and in a moment of weakness, Scott caved. So he is ours.

Elijah's Birthday!!

Can we believe that our baby is 5 years old? He had a great day. He got to take cupcakes to his school class. We went to Red Robin for his birthday dinner. He got a transformer cake, Heely's and cars. What more could a 5 year old boy want? He is such a fun, good boy. Happy Birthday!!!

Happy Holidays!

We decided, at the spur of the moment, to go to Utah for Thanksgiving. We went the Denver, CO, way to avoid the traffic and we hit a snowstorm. It should have taken us 11 hours. It took us 15 hours instead. It was a trip to remember. We ate Thanksgiving dinner at Kym's house, and went to all the new movies. Movies are so cheap in Brigham City! We helped Grandma decorate for Christmas, rode over to Logan to walk around Utah State University. We had a really nice and relaxing time. Thanks Grandma Sherie for the great hospitality. We wish you all a very Happy Holidays!

Christmas Pictures!!

Christmas Pictures!!

I can't believe that Christmas is just around the corner. I thought that I would get ahead and take some pictures of my kiddos. I don't know what everyone elses houses are like at picture time, but ours is NOT a pleasant place to be. I can't believe that we survived. I can't believe they are smiling!! It could have been the several threats to their lives. Whatever it was, we are just really glad that it's over.
