Cinderella and Prince

Here is our little prince charming - Benson is 2 months old and getting so big. He is such a good baby and definitely a momma's boy!
Kali had the ground she walks on kissed and she was asked to Prom. She is really excited. So we went Prom dress shopping. The night before we internet surfed and found several options we liked. This was her very favorite but very unaffordable. But guess what??? We found it on sale for an incredible price. She is our very own Cinderella
Alayna loved it that Kali looked like Cinderella so she had to get on her Cinderella outfit too. May all their dreams come true!! Don't they look so cute!!

The Critters in my home

Here is my little Snickerdoodle. We have had Snickers for probably 11 years. She is a little old and crotchety but I love my little dog. When I am home from work she never leaves my side.
Here is our newest pet!! NOT!!! However, we did have him as a guest in our home for an evening which was more than enough.
I really don't know who is scared of who?? Is the spider more afraid of Perry or Perry afraid of the spider??
She was a gorgeous female tarantula. She came to visit and ask Courtney to Prom. Too bad that no one felt the love towards her and she was invited to leave after a couple of hours.
Of course, I can't forget my birds. Who would like to own them?? If anyone wants them just let me know. Perry calls Kiwi "Satan bird". He really is a good bird he just loves only me. Wiz, on the other hand only loves Perry. So I think that is fair.

A Tender Mercy


This is just something that I dream about. Well, the other day at work I was working a very full, busy flight. It had 8 wheelchair passengers and several requests. I helped these 2 guy change seats. They were diamond platinum fliers, which means they fly non stop. When I boarded them he told me he had something for me. He slipped this into my hand. I about died!!! I told him there was no way I could accept it. He told me I was the nicest agent he has ever seen...(I really am not bragging I just try to be nice) and that I deserved to have a nice day. He was out the door before it all sunk in....I was blessed with a tender mercy.....I am so thankful!

Grandma's dancin' partner

Here is my purple-eyed pork chop. When I tell her she has pretty big blue eyes, she quickly tells me they are purple. When I ask Alayna what her name is it is now "pork chop". So funny. Here is my favorite thing ever. When she has a sleep over with Grandma she knows the routine. After everyone is gone to work and school she turns and asks me if it is now time to do "Richard". Who's Richard?? Richard Simmons of course, "Sweatin' to the Oldies." When she comes over I can't hit the gym so we dance to Richard. She is hilarious and loves it. She is my dancin' partner.
This is one of my favorite pictures of little Benson - Grandma's mutton calf. He is getting sooo big. I can't believe how he is changing so quickly. It's really fun having a little baby boy in the family again. It's been a long time since Preston was this size.

Benson Thomas Brown - December 31, 2009

Isn't she going to be the best big sister ever??!! She loves her baby Benson sooo much! Grandma loves these babies sooo much!
Here is the favorite aunt....or at least that is what she tells them daily. (She hears her mother say that all the time to her nieces and nephews) They are lucky to have an aunt that thinks her life revolves them because it truly does.
2nd day in the hospital....Less bruising...looking much better. What a precious gift from Heavenly Father! Grandma sure does love this little grandson!
Here is the proud grandpa!! He has a grandson finally. We think Benson looks alot like Perry. Except he has lots of black hair, long legs and toes like his daddy.
Here is the little chunkster. Doesn'the look so good. We are so glad that he is here safe and sound and that mama and baby are doing well. We have truly been blessed!!


Alayna had a sleepover a few weeks ago with us. After a nightly ritual of the "Mizard of Loz" - I found her in Juli's bedroom studying. She has decided to become a scientist. Hence the goggles and the Anatomy book. She is following in the footsteps of Aunt Juli. She thought it was pretty fun to be a mad scientist.
