From here to there & there to here...

Funny things are Everywhere. (a line from one of our favorite Dr. Seuss books). Funny things kids have said, interesting things I've noticed:

-- After going 3 days without my coffeemate creamer for my coffee, I finally enjoyed a reall cup of coffee with creamer? My favorite - vanilla carmel.

-- has anyone ever loaded a PEZ dispenser as an adult? Is this candy really worth it. I mean the time it takes to get them in is probably longer than it takes for them to be consumed. Things you never know your parents do for you....I'm learning alot of these lately. And I'm so thankful for all my parents did for me.

-- Today Jackson asked Travis - "Dad, were you at my birthday party?" Hello - we paid for the thing, uhh, yea! We told him, Yes, of course we were there. There wouldn't have been a blow up waterslide & hot dogs if we were'nt there. :)

-- Ok - This one is strange. I decided on recomendation of a friend that we make Mint Chocolate Chip Milkshakes (like chick-fil-a), but cheaper. So today, I asked the kids, "Hey would you like a milkshake?" Jacksons response was: "don't you rememeber I don't like those!" And Brady tried it and then "Uh, no thanks". So instead of a nice yummy, cool & refreshing milkshake in the middle of summer, my kids asked for HOT COCOA!! Go figure!

-- And one final funny kids would only say item: Jackson was asking what our dinner was called. I told him Chicken Parmigana with melted cheese over sauce & chicken. His response "Oh just like Nachos". :)

Life is Good, God is Good, and Humor Feeds the Soul.


Naps are no longer cool, but sometimes life makes ya tired and you crash on the floor.


Brady is finally comfortable on his 4-wheeler he received for his birthday.

Jackson Rockin Out


Jackson has always been musical since day one, but WOW - he was really getting down this night. Some of that may have been contributed by his new Heeley shoes with wheels in them. He's still getting use to them.

Sweet Brady

Lately Brady has been telling us he loves us all on his own. He never really did this much before now. It's so sweet. And today was the first time I heard him tell his brother out of the blue - "I love you Jackson" very sweet.

My 1st Blog

Ok, so it's seems it's time for me to catch up to the "blogging" times. I had all intentions of starting a web page for our family when Jackson was born but that went by the wayside....so, six years later here I am. Hopefully I can keep this up to date and share happenings of the Reed household - the fun, beautiful, shining moments, and the crazy, frustrating, I'm going to pull my hair out moments.

More to come...
