Happy Birthday Burtany :)

So I have to explain my post title, Burtany is what Brit's friends called her when she was younger, and it is now what Luke calls her. He told her Happy Birthday Burtany!!!

Brittany is now celebrating her 2nd anniversary of her 29th birthday as she puts it.

Brittany was a very active little girl, I remember her gruff little voice when she was around the age of 2 to 4 she had what they call screaming nodules, if that gives you any clue to how vocal she was when she was younger. She loved being around as many people as she could be around. She was a talker, she would be talking even when no one was listening to what she was saying.
She loved candy and could sniff it out no matter where I would hide it. No matter how discrete I was trying to be out opening some candy without her knowledge, she could smell it. She LOVED to tease her sisters and brother, and she still enjoys teasing her nieces and nephews.

She now is a wonderful wife, and mother of 3 1/2 very active children, well 3 active children the other one is not quite there yet.
Brittany lives very close so we are able to spend a lot of time together. We have fun getting together for shopping, lunch, going to the park or hiking.
We hop you have a very happy birthday. We love you!!!

Happy Birthday Netters

I can't believe that our little Netter Betters was 16 months old when we packed up everything and moved South. Living in SLC and needing a change in our lives we moved to Leeds, I know that we were/are suppose to be here for some reason. Now she is a beautiful young lady, a wife, a mother of 2 1/2 cuties and a farmer :). For the most part Danette enjoyed living in the country (until she became a teenager like all the others) she loved all the little critters that she would find in the field, all the insects, she loved running around with no shoes. so it was good we moved where it was warmer. We ran a little grocery store in Leeds when we first moved here and Danette was known as the little spring lamb, because she would bounce around the store like a new born lamb. She was bound and determined that she was going to marry Crocodile Dundee (Paul Hogan) she loved watching that movie when she was little. She loved being in her room by herself and would entertain herself for hours. She was always my calm child and a peacemaker in the family.
She now loves where she lives (Texas) she has traded in insects and critters for a donkey, 8 cows, 3 goats a dog some cats and soon to have some pigs. We miss her cute little family so much. We love the few times a year that we can get together.
Love ya Danette, Happy Birthday!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
