We pray for all of you out there who are having trials and such. We all get through the tough times. We all have them there just not the same. So good luck to all of you who are going through heck. We miss you all and hope to see you soon.

What the heck!

Why do we even have a blog? We never put new pictures on it, we never write entries. We are bums.

New Pictures

Here's some recent pictures of us. This first one is the Cerreta Candy Factory. We took a tour here during our Fall Break. Just ignore the dates on these, because our camera is doing some weird stuff with the dates.
Image
This next one is Brandon making some white chocolate candy in some molds. (Red shirt, Superman hat.)
Image
This one is Emma climbing the rock wall at Freestone Park recreation center.
Image
And here's Merika getting ready to climb up (or after she just fell, one of the two).
Image
Here's Brandon in his Halloween costume.
Image
Emma the disco dancer. Ooh ooh ooh ooh stayin' alive.
Image
There's a snake in my boot!
Image
Here's Princess Merri with some of her cousins at a Halloween party.
Image
Remember the Care Bears? Well here's Cara Bear! (And Grandma)
Image
You wouldn't like me when I'm...Hungry! (Merika did this fine work of art. What an awesome and talented wife I have! Shame I had to wash it off after only a few hours. I wanted to wear it for a week or so, but I would've got some strange looks at church and school I think.)
Image
The family in costume ready for some Trick O Treat! (Merika didn't dress up for Halloween night this time due to a big pain in the neck, and NO it wasn't me! She had real pain in her neck.)
Image
Here's Cara's Raggedy Ann outfit that she wore Halloween night. She earned me some good candy!
Image
Here's Brandon's Jack O'Lantern.

It's funny that all this time I've never tried to say something on our blog, I thought it might be too complicated. Well I wanted to say something really bad so I decided to just try and wow, it wasn't hard at all. You who know me really well will be very please for me. Maybe now you won't be able to get me off:] merika
I just want all of you to know that my husband Brian is a wonderful husband and father! He is doing the dishes right now. He does things like this all the time. I love you Brian.

A New Post...Finally

Well it's been QUITE a while since we've done anything on this blog. So here's some pictures to update everyone a little bit. Merika is scheduled to be induced this Sunday (22nd). So, unless she goes on her own before that, we'll have our new baby this Sunday. We're all pretty excited. Kaylie and Emma are going to be such big helpers this time around. Last time we had a baby, our oldest was 6. In other news, my Grandpa Whatcott passed away on March 2nd. We'll sure miss having him around. He was a quiet but great man. I'm glad for him to be able to be in a better place, but sad that I won't get to see him for quite a while. I also pray that Grandma will be comforted in his absence. Life throws different things at us all the time. I guess it helps us to trust in the Lord and never get bored. I hope all you friends, family members and loved ones are doing well and getting through the rough economy troubles okay. We think about y'all often, even if we don't get in touch. We also have Mashae in our prayers at this time. She had a baby boy (Brenden Reed) on Friday, but had some scary complications. We are glad she is still with us and pray for a speedy recovery. The baby is doing well and Grandma Myriel is taking good care of him in Washington. Anyway, those are the major events as of late.
