Update

Well it has been a while since there was a new post added to the family blog. It is amazing how life gets in the way of doing things like updating a blog. In an effort to catch up the quickest possible way, I am going to add some photos to show what has been going on for the last 9 or 10 months. It will probably take a few posts to accomplish this task.


Here is Brett and I, talking about a service project Brett chose to do for last Christmas. The project was in support of Operation Christmas Child, a non-profit organization that collects shoe boxes filled with small items, that get distributed to kids that are less fortunate here in the US and in foreign countries. Brett set a goal of collecting 50 shoeboxes from friends and family and donate them to the organization. We were so proud of Brett for his efforts in helping to bless other kids. Brett's hard work paid off and he was able to blow past his goal and collect 63 boxes.

Here is a picture of Brett after he received his bobcat award from his cub scout leader.



Here is Brett in the 3rd grade chapel. So far every year Brett has been able to get one of the leading roles in the show that his grade puts on.

Loren gives it a try. She wanted to prove that her brother doesn't have anything on her.
