My Hero

I just need to give a shout out to my baby brother, Clint. He is my hero. He is strong, he is faithful, he's an amazing uncle to my kiddos. He's a world traveler, and not just to see the sights. He's done internships in Belgium, he's golfed St. Andrews, he's basically amazing. And he's only 25. He's been to 243 cities in 18 countries. He just started law school at Fordham University in NYC. He makes me laugh. He makes me cry. I love going to the temple with him because you can tell he's so glad to be there. He loves baseball. He learns something from everything he does. He graduated from high school early so he could start college before his mission. He served an honorable mission in Argentina. He's an Eagle Scout. I think he baptized one of my nephews. He's been to all my kids' baby blessings. He's ridiculously humble. He likes the Disney Princesses. He loves golf. He reads like nobody's business. He'll try most anything at least once. Did I mention he's my hero? And that my kids love him?

If you want to read more about him (in his own humble words) and his crazy adventures in NY, visit him at www.clinternational.blogspot.com.

I'm going to miss him while he's in NY, but I know he'll exceed everyone's expectations, especially his own. I love you, Keister.

How nice that is to be so proud of your brother. What a fun thing to read about. Thanks again for helping with Belle.

Hey - do this brother of yours need a girlfriend? I've got one hot sister who has about as many amazing qualities as your brother does. And hey, she's 25 too! :)

I would never put myself in a situation like that, but yes, he does. Is she in the East?

Sadly, no. Here in Denver. But hey - that's what Facebook is for :).

Father's Day

So I'm a day late (and probably a dollar short, I'm not sure I haven't looked at our checking account lately) but I was busy over the weekend.  The girls came home (2 days early) and I was in Utah running the Wasatch Back.  And I pretty much missed Father's Day. I got home at 7:30 last night and Colby had made the girls dinner, cleaned up, and started the dishwasher.  They were watching Extreme Makeover Home Edition.  Had it been Mother's Day, he never would have lived it down, but he hasn't said a word (maybe that's not a good thing).  He's a great dad.  As I get teary just sitting down writing this, knowing he will never see/read it, he's amazing.  He's a hard worker and does it all for the girls and me.  He doesn't (usually) complain about anything and does what needs to be done.  He loves the kids and probably missed them as much as I did while they were gone.  I don't give him enough credit for having emotions about anything, but ...

In A One Horse Open Sled

Today we unloaded a couple tons of hay and Colby saddled up Lightening and pulled the girls around our 3.5 acres.  They had a ball and especially enjoyed singing "Jingle Bells...in a one horse open sled."  They make me laugh sometimes.  Ok, fine, a lot of times.

Holy Sm

I started typing in my title and when I finally looked up and saw (at that very point) that I've already used this one. So to reiterate, Holy Smokes! I can't believe how much I have to catch up on! Maybe tomorrow when I don't have visiting teachers coming, cleaning for my mother-in-law to make an appearance, Madie's piano lesson, 6 violin lessons, rehearsal and somehow I found time to pinch poor Meriden's finger in the front door, I'll download some photos from 1. Christmas (What?!? I still haven't done that?) 2. New Years Eve/Day 3. Madison and Mackenzie's first gymnastics meet videos and photos all before we go to another meet this weekend in Salt Lake, making sure I look like a good mom since my mother-in-law is in town (aka having food on the table at a decent hour), teach a few gymnastics classes, getting ready for Madison's big 9th birthday, taking treats into her class and actually getting packed and to Salt Lake all by Friday at 3 pm. ...
