I don't know how he does it but he loves hiking with the scouts. Here he is on the way to his ten mile hike in the rain. The best part about this trip was when he got home he said, "Mr. Brown said not to let you pack for me anymore." Apparently, scouts don't need umbrellas. I packed everything because my baby was going hiking in the rain. And I don't mean a sprinkle. It was raining hard! His next hike is going to be the Walls of Jericho and he is ready!
Sorry to post all of these now but I just now plugged the camera in since Christmas! Every Friday night my mom and dad go to La Hacienda to eat. They have Roman come and sing on Fridays and Dad and Roman really get along. Mom and Dad are regulars there and we have been going there for a little over 2 years. Here we are celebrating Erin and Zac's birthdays. 
I have not had too much going on this last week. Bryce has been sick. He starting running a fever on Monday morning. I just returned to work today. He has been a sick puppy. He has an ear infection and a "yucky throat"! I am just thankful that it wasn't RSV or Strep. So I have been spending the last couple of days living it up as a stay at home mom and loving it! I hate that he was sick but I loved being with him all the time. He loves to have Thomas and the Magic Railroad playing all the time! I have watched enough of this movie to last a lifetime. Bryce loves it and it is all that he wants to watch. He has watched it more in the last couple of months than Steven did in years.
I also received a call from Steven today that he is not feeling good and he is home in the bed now too! So, tonight I lysol again! We are trying spring clean this time! Even with two sick kids I LOVE BEING A MOMMY!
No other news right now. We are gearing up for the big scout ski trip on Valentine's weekend. I am pumped! I have never done this before and am very excited and so is Steven. It is also like a getaway for me and Blake because my mom will be watching Bryce. Next year he is going and I bet he loves it too!
Yesterday, Bryce was officially 21 months! I cannot believe we are this close to 2. I hate that they grow so fast! He is so smart. He loves tractors, Thomas, and going outside right now. He has all of his teeth except his four eye teeth. He is so much fun right now because he has his own feelings and thoughts. The best thing he does right now is when I go to get him in the morning, I open the door and he says Hi Mama in the sweetest voice ever! Well not too long and Bryce will be 2 and then Steven turns 12! 
Yesterday we truly became equal in our nation. I don't pretend that everyone agrees with my political beliefs and I truly respect and understand that. I do believe that we were ready for a change in our country and I believe that President Obama will be the person to do it. No matter who you voted for on November 4th, our nation witnessed history yesterday. I can honestly tell you that the only inaugural speech that I remember is JFK's. Many years from now I will be able to tell my grandchildren and hopefully great grandchildren that I watched this and I witnessed this pivotal moment in American history. I am truly honored to live in this great country where people are able to voice their opinions and be democratic about who we choose to put in office. I truly wish that all the negativity could end for a moment. May God bless him and his family as he takes on this enormous task.
