Fact of the Week

Fact of the Week: How long do astronauts stay in quarantine? Apollo 11, 12, and 14 Astronauts from these missions were quarantined for 21 days after returning from the moon, beginning when the lunar lander's hatch closed on July 21, 1969. The quarantine was a precaution in case the astronauts had been exposed to dangerous lunar microorganisms.

Fast forward one week from Bryce's birthday. Dave and Lisa came to visit and brought him with. They found the costume drawer! Here are the pirates!
Next, Superman flew in
Before we knew it, we were honored by a visit from Buzz Lightyear!
Not to be outdone, Batman showed up for the party!
Batman and Buzz....the new dynamic duo!!!

Topher had a BLAST dressing up with Bryce. Of course the process took ALL evening. What did we play do you ask? We played the drink wine and eat cheesecake game. Everybody's a winner!!!!

Fun with Bryce Part One - Bryce's Birthday

Jungle Jim's.......the greatest place on Earth........okay, well maybe not on Earth, but definitely in Midvale! Bryce invited the Morley clan to help him celebrate his birthday. Here is Payton waiting to ride the.........what is this ride called anyway??????
Topher went straight to the playground. Go figure!!!!
Okay start the ride already!!!!!
Tim is teaching Bryce how it is done!!!!!
Boy in the plastic bubble!
There were so many people taking Bryce's picture, he wasn't sure where to look! We looked like the paparazzi!
Images of things to come when Tim gets his driver's license!!!
and Topher as well!
Just think, all of these boys will be out there on public roads in about 5-8 years. Stay off of the sidewalks!!!!
Bryce will be the donut master! It was so cute/funny, he couldn't get his car going forward. He just went around in circles.........
Here's Madison just kickin' it. I wonder what she is thinking?........
When getting on this ride, Topher asked if it was "lame". I said how can it be lame if it spins around? When he got off, he did indeed proclaim that it was lame because it didn't go fast enough!
Tim, is getting tired of my pictures at this point.
He had a pretty good time once it got going.
Here is the birthday boy with all of his presents........
and with his cake!
It was so much fun and I am glad we got invited! We ate pizza, salad, and soda! Bryce didn't want to leave! Happy Birthday, Bryce!

New Year's Eve 2010

Okay, had to take a break to post Brendon's birthday, so now I have to finish my posts for the holiday season! We spent New Year's Eve with the Turners, Dilles, and Camerons (and Bryceman too!)
We'll do the funny pics first. Love the top hat, Dave!
Melissa was beat. She had to have a little nappy poo before midnight!
I think Topher is cutting off either his head, or Lisa's...not quite sure!
This is R.J.'s theme for the night.
What's scary about all of the pics is that this was early in the evening!
Guess if they had been later in the evening, they would have been too lewd!!!!
That is ONE SEXY couple!!!!!
I think I might frame this one!
Ok, now for the cute ones! Here is Tim and Jessica.
Jessica and me.
Lisa and me.
I couldn't decide which one I liked better!
Jess and Dave.
Yay! Melissa finally woke up. Notice my peace necklace? That was a Christmas gift from Tim. Thank you, Tim!!!!
The Bryceman and Lisa.
R.J. and Jess.
He looks like I made him cut something valuable off to be in a picture with me!
Lisa has the "goods" down her shirt.
The only difference between men and boys..............................
is the size of their toys........................

Like I said!
HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Honestly.....we're not lushes!
Promise!

Good bye 2010...... not the best year for some, but not the worst either. Hello 2011, may you bring hope and joy with you!!!! Love you all!

Happy Birthday, Brendon

My goodness, you are 17! Where has the time gone? I can't believe it was only yesterday you were as tiny as Raylor that you are holding. You are one of my more sensitive kids, and I don't mean that in a bad way. You are in tune with people's feelings and are able to respond to that.
You are so quiet, but your presence is always felt. You always make sure that even the littlest guy feels welcome.
You have more inner strength than you realize. I know you have had a tough couple of years, but I think you are coming out on the bright side of the tunnel.
You keep heading in the right direction and one day you will shed all of that shyness and then no one will be able to keep up with you!
17 years ago I had a baby for my birthday, and I thank God everyday that you are healthy and (I hope) happy!
Happy Birthday, Brendon! May all of your dreams come true!
