A Special Gift!

I could sit and watch my boys play together all day and night long. I love seeing the love that the two of them share…melts this momma’s heart!! Mark’s dad was a great guitar player! He had a few different guitars (string guitar, electric guitar, 12-string guitar) and Mark has self taught himself how to play each of them. As I watch him play to Bryce, I often think how his dad did the same for him! The Dad/Son relationship is like nothing else, and I’m so thankful Mark was shown such a great example of that, even though it was cut short at the young age of 16. I pray the two of them will always be the best of buds and that even in Bryce’s teenage years (yes, I said the T word), he holds his dad in the highest regard!

Music by Bryce

Grandpa Drost can play almost every instrument he comes in contact with. He has what we call a musical ‘ear’.  This past Christmas he picked out Harmonicas for the boys! Bryce is starting early and really trying to get that same musical ‘ear’ that both his grandpas have/had.  Thanks for such a great gift Grandpa!! When I’m famous some day, I’ll be sure to dedicate my music to you ;).

Cousins having fun at Christmas 2010

It is such a blessing for Bryce to have a cousin so close to his age. It has been so much fun watching the two of them grow into the little toddlers that they are! This little video cracks me up! I love how they copy each other! Can’t wait for our next visit with Mr. Carson!! Ps, who needs Christmas presents when you have a great grandma that has a very good smelling candle *wink

My Cup Runneth Over - Happy New Year!!!

My Cup Runneth Over....These sweet words are used frequently in our household! In 2010, our cup really did runneth over! We watched our little man's crawls turn into steps, his bald head turn into long locks of hair a bald head with a little more hair, and his personality take on a character of its own. We watched him put on a performance as he dug into this first birthday cake and we listened as his coos turned into sweet words- momma, dadda...and most recently "IWUVYOU" (three words blurred into one). 2010 was such a blessing for our little family and the blessings continue to come (and not in the form of another kid-at least any time soon, if that was what you were secretly wishing for)- and for that we are so greatful!

Here's to hoping all your cups runneth over in 2011!
