Update










Well here we are almost another whole month gone by and i haven't done a post where does time go? We are enjoying this winter and Tevyn and the boys have logged a few miles on the four wheeler pulling a tube in the vacant lot across from our house. This is a picture of him pulling Shaun as you can see this is a blast! I guess that's a benefit for living in a small town. The little boys love to play in the snow also but are a little leery of the tube(especially when Tev is driving). They have fun just playing in the snow. We have our house for sale and we are looking to move back to civilization perhaps Firth or even back to Archer. That's puts me traveling to work again but oh well its not to bad. We miss the families and being able to participate in the lives of cousins and close friends. All we need to do is sell our house (good luck, right). For now we will just stay put and we know what happens, happens for a reason. The boys just finished up playing basketball Tevyns team won every game and he played about every minuet of the games. He is a team leader and really shines in competition. He will start playing in an Arco league next week. I coached Seth and Shaun's team and we finally won our last game. Shaun takes after Tevyn and he scored 11 of our teams 15 points and lead us to victory. Seth had fun but well....he tried real hard and was a good rebounder but sports really aren't his bag. Raegyn is about to finish up Kindergarten and is learning to read. She is very smart and incredibly girly (shocking with all those bros.) she likes doing hair and nails and all that girl stuff, its fun to watch her grow. She is very beautifull even with no teeth. I guess we will keep her. Brigham and Jayden continue to test our patience on a daily basis, I really hope they survive to go to school so Nicole can retain her sanity. We love them dearly but they are so boy its scary they are like a tropical storm brewing. Lily, well lily is something special. Much like her older sister she has Daddy wrapped around her finger and can do a lot by batting those baby blues. She earned the nickname "bug", because of her eyes and because it goes so good with Lily, "lilybug". She is the baby of the family and that's a hard place to be trust me i know i am the youngest of seven also. We appreciate our time together and Nicole and I feel so blessed to have this family and although it is a trial, there are always little moments that remind us that this is what life is all about. Well we wish you all the best and hope you read these posts. I am getting better at posting more often. Love you all and hope to see you soon!

Well just wanted to drop a line and update whats going on. I hope we have told everyone but if we haven't we are having another baby in August. We are pretty excited about it and I think I finally convinced Nicole that we are done. We have been patiently waiting for spring to come but every time it warms up a little the next day it snows. I can't wait to go camping and start enjoying the outdoors a little more. I was lucky enough to go to Phoenix this past weekend and see a Nascar race. Man that was awesome!! If you ever get a chance to go see one just do it even if you don't really like it it is really cool. Take some ear plus though. I'll try to post a video that I took with my cell phone but i don't know how well it will work. Anyway tell all your families hi and we hope to see you soon!

Updated Family Stuff

So I thought I would write a little more about what is going on for us. In October Nicole and I started a business called Mountain High Shuttle, we provide Non-Emergency Medical transportation for Medicaid clients. So far its been awesome in helping provide for our family. I love working for Tony and his two partners Bruce and DeVere. They are truely the best people I have ever worked for, in January I have been here 5 years and I have moved up the chain and am currently the regional supervisor in Mackay. We serve about 45 clients out here I have 4 case workers (professionals) and three para-proffesionals on my crew. Through hard work I have gained the respect of Tony, Bruce and DeVere and they pretty much let me take control. I love Social Work and working in the Mental Health Field and the clients I get to work with every day...well enough about that. Nicole is doing well and loves being a stay at home mom she works so hard to keep this place running and works long hard hours at it, she is a great mom and the most awesome wife. Tevyn is in 5th grade and is pretty much the all-star athelete I knew he would be, he plays Basketball and Baseball and lives for Football. He just got braces on his teeth in December and as you can see from the picture below they were much needed (jack-o-lantern) He is the cool kid and is really responsible and so much help with his younger Brothers and Sister. He is a good student and is maybe a little to social. Seth is our little Rock star he is taking Guitar lessons and loves to jam on his guitar. He also took clogging over the fall months and loves to hang out with cousins camping. He is also an excellent shot with his BB gun. He never fails to give a hug when needed and loves to call Grandma Bell daily. Shaun is a little Tevyn and seems to be following in his footsteps and is usually connected to Tevyn's hip. He (as well as Seth) is in Basketball right now and loves sports. Both Seth and Shaun are excellent students. Raegyn well what can I say she has me wrapped aound her little finger....and she knows it. I think she is so perfect and just a little version of her beautiful mother she is in pre school and will start Kindergarten in the fall. She enjoys dance and bossing all of her brothers around... She is definetly a little princess. Jayden is a miniature version of a human atomic bomb...and accident waiting to happen. But a lot like Seth he is a real sweety and loves to cheer you up with a hug and a kiss he is 3 and will be 4 in May he is such a sweet boy. Brigham is also a human atomic bomb and love to torture his mother by making messes in the house. He is 2 and will be 3 in June and is a little rip. He is also reminds me so much of Tevyn. We are so blessed and I have such a wonderful family and I hope I can share more in the future.
