Gotcha Day!
We celebrated our "Gotcha Day" with Bradyn on October 28th. Hard to believe that it has been 1 year since we have been blessed with his presence. We decided we would go out to dinner for our celebration especially since Bradyn does so well in restaurants. Well, that didn't work so well, he showed his true 2 year old colors and made for a very fast dining experience. We had cake when we got home and he opened a gift that we got for him in Russia. We also put together a package to send to the baby home.
Our 5 Year Wedding Anniversary!
We spent the weekend in Park City with great plans to play in the snow with Bradyn. Well, it didn't snow and the ground was completely bare! Plan B...we enjoyed ourselves in the swimming pool and did some window shopping.

Thanksgiving!
Oompa and Oomba Lee joined us for Thanksgiving this year! Bradyn got his usual "A Present A Day" gifts from them. We had lots of fun with them and even took Bradyn to his first Hockey game. He LOVED the hockey but didn't care for the large inflatable Bear that the hockey players skated through at the beginning of the game. We also went to the zoo and Bradyn showed Oomba and Oompa around.
My Dad's 75th Birthday Celebration!
Our whole family surprised my Dad with a birthday party for his 3/4 of a century celebration! Everyone in the family wrote letters to him on their memories with him, then compiled it into a book. We succeeded in surprising him and spent the time reminiscing about good times.
Now here we are in the midst of the holiday season and counting down the days until Santa comes. Bradyn has become obsessed with the characters from Toy Story and says that Santa is bringing him a Buzz Lightyear. He has enjoyed getting ready for Santa with our daily advent calendar countdown. We've also made cookies and gingerbread houses. And Bradyn has even helped wrap the presents...well, he has added about 5 or 6 gift tags to every gift. We are so excited for Santa to get here...he comes to Bradyn's daycare on the 18th and he says he's going to sit on his lap...we'll see.

Love your pictures (well minus the Packer stuff...poor child) :P
Ryan has decided a dump truck is what he wants. We tried Santa this year as well...he wouldn't sit, but gave him a high five!
Thanks for the updates! Loving hearing how you all are :) Think about you often!
So happy to see a new update, not that I'm not up to date.

Looking forward to you coming for Christmas. Let me know how Brady does with the Santa at school.....
Love you all.

Happy Belated Birthday Bud!!
Happy Anniverary Mike & Heidi!
Happy Anniversary Brady!
Mike Heidi and Brady,
We so enjoyed every minute we could spend with all of you. The time went way too fast. Brady has grown so much and he is so bright. I can't beleive everything he knows and remembers. Guess we need to be mindful of "promisses" we make to him, because he certainly isn't going to forget them at this point. Give Brady a big hug and kiss from us.
Love you all,
Oompa and Oomba Lee
It looks like things are going great for you guys! I'm so happy for you! Have a Merry Christmas:)

Bummer there was no snow to play around in Park City. I'm sure there's plenty now.
