I was reading the Ensign the other day and of course any thing I am doing braxs has to do to, so he climbed on my lap and was looking at the Ensign. It was the April one which had a lot of pictures of Jesus Christ in them so we looked at them and I was telling him who he was. It is so cute now every time he sees a pic of Jesus he says his name however it sounds more like jejus but I was excited that he recognized him. Also after looking at the Ensign he went and pulled out all the Ensigns and was looking through them it was really cute!

What mom your are interrupting me!
When we were visiting my Grandparents they took us to a really fun reasurant called the fiddling pig! It was BBQ with a live bluegrass band! The kids loved it they were dancing on the dance floor everyone in the resaruant was watching them it was so cute! We got a small clip of it although it does not show some of braxs best dance moves you get the point! THe other little boy is George my nephew! He also has some sweet dance moves! It was really fun! BE SURE TO MUTE MY MUSIC ON THE RIGHT SIDE GO TO THE MUSIC PLAYER AND HIT PAUSE!
So we got to go North Carolina to visit my Grandma and Grandpa Tippin! It was so fun we stopped in Knoxville on the way down and checked out the city then took a fun boat ride! My sister and her two kids Ashley and George also met us at my Grandparents house so that was fun! We got to do lots of fun things that the kids loved and us adults liked too! We went to a childrens musem, a zoo where the animals were very active so it was fun plus it had a petting zoo that the kids loved! We also went to the cherokee reservation and it was really neat! North Carolina is beautiful, lots of green rolling hill and everyone there lives on top a of a hill! To bad it was not a little later in the year there would have been a lot more to see! It was a great trip! Thanks Grandma and Grandpa for showing us around and playing with the kids!
When Braxs woke up this morning we brought him down and he say his Easter basket will cars in it that was his favorite part! He also got a cute little suit that he looked so cute in thanks grandma! After church we colored Easter eggs which he also thought it was really fun to throw the eggs in the coloring, then we had a Easter egg hunt which he liked although it took a lot of effort to get him away from his car! Grandma got him a little car track and he loved that he was having so much fun with it we barley could get him away! I have never seen a kid so interested in cars he pretty much plays with them all day long! It is really cute he makes the cars talk to each other now he is getting quite the imagination! For dinner we are going to our friends the DeMill house they are from our ward and we really have a lot of fun hanging out with them thanks for having us over guys!
So it was officially declared a BLIZZARD today and last night! It was a pretty good storm it is the most snow that Ohio has had from one storm for 100 yrs! We got about a foot and half of snow in a day and half, which really is not that much compared to what you guys have been getting out in Utah but in ohio everything gets shut down! If I can't make it to work the will send the ambulance to pick me up weird huh! But we went out in the snow today while kevin was shoveling and Braxs did not know what to think of all the snow! He had some lovely snow boots (plastic bags) what can I say we are poor! But we had fun!
It was fun on Friday we decided to do a dental wives club! A bunch of us wives like to hang out every now and again so we decided we would get even more of us to hang out! Candice and Sherri got it going good job guys! But it was fun we went over to Katie house and watched movies, talked ate a lot of food and talked even more! It was nice to get to know people! Here is a pic of the girls! It was fun to get out!

The video is really cute don't forget to mute the music down on the left hand side or you won't be able to hear him!

He is such a cutie!
Braxton likes to line up all his cars!

This was actually over Thanksgiving but he was so into watching cars he would not even look at us to take this pic, but george did!
So some of our friends have been talking about lost a lot and we have never really got into it so we decided to watch them from the beginning! Since all of the seasons are online and free! We are almost done with season one and I have to say this is probably the best show I have seen on TV! We love it we watch it all the time now! Since we have a lot of catching up to do! But I highly recommend it!
Well today Kevin and I thought it would be nice to go to some place different. He has been working so hard in school lately I barley see him! But he had today off for Martin Luther Kings day. We went to the conservatory it was actually really neat! They were having a orchid festival it was really pretty it felt like we were in a rain forest. Which was fun cuz it has been so cold out here lately, below freezing! We thought braxton would only like the train, which he really liked but he also liked the flowers and plants too. It was a fun family adventure!
We had a great time over the holidays! It was so fun being able to visit family again! Christmas Day was busy but fun! We woke up at Kirk and Lindy's and opened presents, then went to my parents house. Then we went to my grandparents, and both sets of Kevin's grandparents after that! It was a busy day but we had a chance to see a lot of family! Braxton was really cute opening presents! He got mostly cars he was very excited about it too! We all got really great gifts, thanks to everyone it was a great Christmas!
