Meditation

Bryson has taken to "meditating." As he says, "It can complete your senses." You never know when he is going to drop into a cross-legged sit, close his eyes, touch his fingers together and try to find his way to another reality. The funniest place he's been caught meditating is on the elevator on the way up to my work. It wasn't even worth trying to explain to the people who got on the elevator with us. Alana is never shy to be right there with him.

Karina & Alana

Our two little 'blondies" are pretty good friends. They are roommates. Alana is willing to live with Karina's "John Deer Room Design" and Karina is very patient with Alana's "Messy Look."

Jade & Luke

Jade and the family have a good friend named Luke. Luke likes to hunt. Jade used Gma Redman's quilt frames to make Luke a camo-print quilt for his birthday. Okay, Karina is telling me that it was for Valentine's Day. Lucky Luke, no matter how you look at it.

Bryson's Baptism

This year started with Bryson's baptism. He was (and still is) super excited to be 8. He's a great Cub Scout and goes camping with Dad and the "Big Scouts" whenever he can.

As with many things in life, we can credit the creation of this blog to our parents. They are "cool" enough that they are using the Web. So in order to share more of our family with them, we are going to try to do the Blog thing. Our hope is that this will also serve as a family journal of some sort. Here's to blogging. -brandon
