We went Bremerton for Christmas to visit Grandma and Grandpa. there the kids got to play with cousins and open presents and be with the grandma and grandpa they don't get to see very often. Bryson got the present that he has been asking for months. Pop the pig. you roll the dice, pick a burger of the same color and find out what numper is on the bottom of the burger, feed it to the pig and pump the pig's head as many times as the burger said. eventually the pig's tummy gets so big, his belt pops open and his arms pop up. Bryson loves that game. We decided to get a dog. I wanted a dog that would want to be excersized every day. I definately picked the right one. Weimaraners are notorious for their overabundance of energy. His name is Gunner and he is a very smart dog. he's only 15 weeks old and I taught him 3 tricks in two days. He will sit, Shake hands, and lay down. He has had a few accidents on the carpet, but he is learning potty training very well. When I first met him, he ran out the door of the owner's home and stayed right by me. I totally expected him to go running out into the street and do his own thing for a while, but Weimaraners aparently love being around any human and don't like to go off on their own much. Some of you may remember the dogs on sesame street dressed up like humans doing human things with their human hands. here are some videos if you don't remember.

Fall time!

2010-10-17T11:24:00.000-07:00

for some reason the blog editor is not showing the pictures, so I will just explain them all here. we recently painted our deck, it has been needing it since we moved in. I think it turned out very well. Miles has started eating solid foods and makes a funny face every time we feed him vegitables. I finally finished my trailer. Wade and I took the M-37 off road for an afternoon and got it there by pulling it on the trailer. We had a blast. Jen and I got to borrow her aunt's boat on labor day. we took it to Jordanelle res. and went fishing with the kids. all we caught were itty bitty fish. I grew giant pumpkins in our back yard this year. they didn't get huge due to a hail storm that completely destroyed all of the pumpkin leaves. oh well, maybe next year they will be bigger. our biggest one was 82 lbs. Miles got a kick out of the pumpkins.

Getting ready for summer!

2010-06-13T20:20:00.001-07:00

Jen's mom decided to splurge this year and buy the boys a play set for Bryson's birthday.

It took me a full week to put together. I worked on it every day after work and almost two entire Saturdays. I got some help from Wade and my dad the first Saturday. Lots of pieces to keep track of!

one day while I was working on the play set, Bryson decides to disappear. I call around looking for him, I hear him respond, but I can't see him. then I see his head pop out of the upper garden. he was playing in the hole I dug for the sprinkler.

funny kid!

for Bryson's B-day we went to chuckie cheese's with the family. He and Jen's cousins had a blast.

Miles likes bath time much more than Bryson did when he was a baby. Miles hardly makes a peep through the whole experience. Miles has been relatively more easy going than Bryson was in general.

Cheese!

2010-04-04T08:55:00.000-07:00

Thursday night at around 9pm, Jen started complaining about having contractions 5 min. apart. she wasn't sure if we should go in or not, because she was induced last time and wasn't sure what labor contractions felt like. the contractions continued and according to her, they were intense and painful. I told her that I needed to get some sleep at around 11pm. Whether we were going to the hospital or not, I felt that some sleep would be nice. I fell asleep and 15 min. later she said that Christy and allen were coming over to watch Bryson and we were going to the hospital. I couldn't sleep after that. I got up and got dressed and packed. we left and got to the hospital around midnight. Jen got the epidural, and Miles came at 2:54 am. Miles was 6lbs. 13oz.

He looks a lot like Bryson did, but he is a lot more layed back. He is a lot quiter than Bryson was. He sleeps a lot more too.

Mommy and baby after birth.

close up!

Can you tell we were up all night? really? what gave it away?

Bryson came to visit his baby brother that morning and he kept saying "he's so cute!"

He wasn't really sure what this all meant. you could tell he wasn't thrilled to be replaced.

But Bryson missed us!

for how much Miles sleeps, Jen didn't get much sleep that day. Nurses kept coming in and asking questions and taking mesurements and poking and proding.

We can tell when Miles is hungry, he smacks his lips and sticks his tounge out.

2010-04-04T08:22:00.000-07:00

I've been busy making things (as you will see in this post and the next). this is a trinket that I made for the Young men/young women's fundraiser auction. Flowers growing out of a horse shoe.

Bryson grew out of his crib a while ago, so we decided it was time for a big boy bed. I borrowed measurments and tools from my friend Wade, and this is what I came up with.

I just made the same bed twice and used dowels to connect the two. now Bryson and Miles will have a bed to sleep in.

Bryson absolutely loves it!

I grew a big beard over the last few months and this is what I had for a few days before I shaved the whole thing off. a lot of people at work and church did a double take. they weren't sure who they were looking at. I enjoyed seeing people's reactions.

Christmas

2010-01-01T13:51:00.000-08:00

Merry Christmas and happy New Year everyone! It's been a long time since I've blogged, but I've been really busy. December was a busy month! Here's our latest family picture. included in Jen's Belly is our soon to be latest addition, a baby boy 6 months in the making. Yippee!

Bryson can't stand loud noises like the vacuum, egg beater, and Dad's power tools. when we are using one of said Items, he hides in the closet and covers his ears. He has always had really sensitive hearing. Bryson found the newest easiest way to shed your skin in seconds flat. it's called the treadmill. He got his hand stuck in there and Jen had to shut it off quickly and rescue him.

He wore a bandage for about 3 weeks. He didn't like to do anything with his hand when we took the bandage off.

Bryson started potty training this week. He's so excited to wear his big boy undies!

Grandma Honey gave him these Thomas P.J's for Christmas. they are really nice!

The boys and I got to go out Christmas eve morning to play in the snow. We had a lot of fun slipping and sliding everywhere. Wade was the only one who had problems. he broke his axle. don't worry, we already fixed it and he's ready for more.

This was the white elephant gift that I gave at the Robson family Christmas party. I spent a few hours on it the night before and just used nuts and bolts and spare parts I found lying around. I think It turned out pretty good.

Autumn leaves

2009-10-18T19:52:00.001-07:00

Some of you may remember last year's fall post. Bryson did not enjoy playing in the leaves much last year.

This year, we couldn't keep him out of the leaves. he wanted to jump in them, walk through them,

lay on them,

and be buried in them. anything to do with leaves, he was all over it. needless to say, he was very sad when I scooped up the pile and put it in the mulch.

I bought a boat trailer! no, I don't have a boat. I'm converting it to a flatbed. I'll post more pictures when I'm done with it. I'm going to use it for hauling anything and everything including the Power Wagon when I'm done with it.

I was outside watching Bryson and two kids we were tending for a friend. I turn to help one of the other kids with his tricycle and bryson hops on his power wheels dump truck and climbs the wood pile. He's already turning out to be an off-road junkie like his dad.

2009-09-27T13:58:00.000-07:00

Back in June (I think) we went up American fork canyon with our friends, the Stinsons and we enjoyed nature for 2 or three days. We didn't bring a ladder, so I was the next best thing for stringing up a tarp for shade/rain cover.

Hailey and Bryson trying to keep warm before breakfast.

In July we went up to Washington to go to my highschool 10 year reunion and also a Hall family reunion. We had fun at both. I was given an award at the high school reunion for being the best dancer. this is a picture of the cousins after sunday dinner at Grandma's house.

In August We got to go to Missouri with My Parents and two of my siblings and their families. We started in St. Louis at a Reliv convention for Mom's Justin's, and Thelesa's businesses. after that was done, we rented cars and went to Jackson county were we saw the liberty Jail, Adam-Ondi-Ahman, the Community of Christ's temple and the Liberty visitor's center. I was very moved spiritually when we walked into the room where the Jail is. It felt like God had touched the ground there and there was definitely something special about that room. The Guides kept saying how important the revelations were that were received there. they were some of the most poignant revelations given in the history of the earth.

this was the sign by the road. this is really in the middle of nowhere and you have to know where you're going or have a GPS that accepts coordinates. luckily we had a GPS.

This is Grandma sitting in front of the field with the grand kids where it is all supposed to happen.

Jen and I in front of Adam-Ondi-Ahman

Bryson and Lauren (Justin's Daughter) on the covered wagon at the Liberty visitor's center.

We grew pumpkins this year in our back yard on the upper level. one of the pumpkins decided it liked hanging three feet off the ground on the neighbor's side of the fence. hopefully our neighbors won't mind us coming over to get it when it's ready.

We had our friends from collage come over and visit because Dan and Valerie were home for a visit from school in Prague. I showed off my truck and the kids all wanted to go for a ride. so we went around the block. Dan and Val's oldest son Vincent was concerned and kept saying "Daddy, there's no roof." I thought that was cute.

It was my birthday on thursday and I just wanted to mow the lawn and finish my present to me so Jen let me work in the shop for a few hours and this is what I came up with. I got a welder with the $ from the stimulus check we got last year. I love welding things and creating new things out of metal. I find all sorts of stuff left behind by the previous owner in the shop and the shed. I have used a lot of the stuff already and have yet to find uses for other things, but I always have fun using them. I actually found a complete chevy 350 engine in the shed all torn apart. I'm currently trying to sell it, but if I can't find a buyer, I'm probably going to use it on a future car/truck project.

Towers and Trains

2009-06-25T21:37:00.000-07:00

Bryson and I like to make towers. Well, I like to make towers, Bryson likes to knock them down

This was the tallest one we could make. We used every block we had. My goal was to make it to the ceiling. We got pretty close. Time to get more blocks!

Bryson likes to make big messes!

Bryson used to line all his trucks up like a train. He would do this with most anything. Now that he got a train set for his Birthday, he plays with that instead.

Thomas the Train

Bryson is obessed with trains, especially Thomas the train. We got to go to Heber with some friends and see him. He took us for a ride.

Bryson know the names of pretty much all of the engines. It amazes me because there are quite a few of them. I have finally learned most them too. It became a neccessity. Bryson would want to watch a certain engine do a certain thing on his dvd, and I wouldn't know what in the world he was talking about. I am sure you can imgine how mad he got.

Well, that was fun. I think I am finally getting the hang of this posting thing. Now I just have figure out how to post under my own name.

2009-06-25T21:27:00.000-07:00

So, I am having trouble getting things to upload in the right order. I am trying to figure this out on my own, but I quess will have to have Joel help me later. Here is a few more: Bryson loves to watch himself on the video camera. We are going to wear it out.

Bryson found a pen and drew all over himself. It is hard to disipline him when he is being so darn cute.

One of Bryson's favorite pasttimes is playing outside and helping daddy in his shop. This day he found a nice dirty puddle to jump in.

I just though this was cute. I have a really hard time picking what pictures to post.

This is how Bryson helps me cook.

Finally

2009-06-25T20:52:00.000-07:00

This is Jen posting for the first time. I decided that I better learn how to so this so that we can post more than once every six months. I decided to add some more pictures to catch up on the last six months. Here we go!

I was cooking dinner one night. Bryson grapped some celery of the counter. I just let him take it and to my great delight he spent about 20 min shredding that celery. I got to make dinner in peace.

Bryson's Birthday

2009-06-21T09:14:00.000-07:00

Bryson got a Thomas train set for his 2nd birthday. he was so excited when he got it, he completely ignored everyone for several hours and played quietly. Here was his reaction when he recieved it.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ODNe1OhAKz0

Jen and I made a Thomas the train birthday cake for Bryson. I think it turned out pretty good.

Daddy helped him get a little messy while eating his cake.

Bryson and his friend Kirsta got to go to Wheeler Farm and see all the animals. Bryson always talks about how he fed the "ducks". These geese were happy to get fed too.

They got dirty. Not sure how.

We got to go up to Plain City on Memorial day to visit Jen's Grandparent's grave site and their old family farm. Here, Bryson's Grandpa Robson is showing him the old tractor.

My Brother-in-law backed into the van with his Prizm. Bryson helped me fix the rear bumper.

He found holes to put the clips in so I had trouble finding them when I was putting the bumper back together. the trunk was caved in a bit, so I had Jen work the winch on the Power Wagon while I set the hook and we pulled the trunk back out and the lid actually opens and closes how it should.

2009-01-17T13:29:00.000-08:00

We went to the auto expo this weekend to check out all of the new cars. Bryson got a chance to check out the ladies. "Hey Beautiful, you like my ride?"

lookout! coming through.

let me in!

I had the day off so we built a snowman. we put candy in for the eyes, mouth and buttons. Bryson wasn't having much fun waiting around in the cold while we were making it.

it snowed quite a bit. as you can see by this picture, we got about 8-10" that day.

uncle Allen got a new chair for christmas and Bryson knew exactly what to do with it. he was totally vegged out watching T.V.

Mom and Bryson playing in the snow.

Bryson loves to eat snow. that's about all he likes about it. everything else is just no fun.

Thanksgiving

2008-12-14T13:19:00.000-08:00

It's Thanksgiving. and you know what that means. Yup! it's time again for the annual off roading extravaganza! we had three trucks show up this time. Timmy Joined Wade and I this year. Spencer tagged along in Timmy's Burban.

It turns out that Timmy's burban has a limited slip rear end. he showed it off by climbing this rock.

after climbing some hills and some rocks, we went and found a little mud puddle to play in.

we had to use Wade's truck to pull Timmy out.

Bryson has a new friend to play in his cardboard house. Kirsta came over to play when her mommy came to work on the ward Christmas party dinner. I asked Bryson to give Kirsta a hug and Kirsta gave Bryson a big bear hug.
Bryson got to try on his Thomas the train slippers before Christmas. he liked them a lot.

It snowed about 4 inches over the weekend and we're expecting at least 4 more on Monday. I decided to take bryson out to play in the snow for his first time. like everything new outside, he doesn't like it at first. He's still not used to it. He doesn't like to walk in it at all.

Halloween Time!

2008-11-08T10:44:00.000-08:00

we woke up one morning and decided to listen to some Snow Patrol on our ipod. bryson let me hold him and bounce to the music. after a while he became entranced and just hugged me for several minutes. needless to say, mommy was very jealous. If you know bryson at all, you'd know that he's not very cuddly.

we had some friends over to carve pumpkins before halloween.

Bryson had some friends to play with in his new carboard box house. Hunter and Hailey.

It's Halloween time and someone decided to dress up as his favorite animal.

He loved barking and panting all night long.

he was very courteous. every time he got to pick his candy at the door he said thank you. he knows how to say trick or treat now, but he rarely said it at the doors.

I caught Bryson playing with his boots. he would walk around with one on each hand and just babble like he was having the greatest time. I couldn't get him to put both on for the picture.

Bryson just loves balloons. he'll spend an hour just playing with them if you let him. you can hear him saying "Biiiiuuuuuns" for Balloons and "up up aaay" for up, up, and away!

2008-10-19T14:47:00.000-07:00

well, the winch doesn't work because the lever that engages it is rusted stuck, so I ripped it out the other night.
I'm just glad that I have a ceiling hoist. this sucker is beefy.
this winch is driven by the engine instead of electricity like contemporary winches. this gives it an amazing amount of torque and strength.
I got a little help lubing it up from my buddy Bryson.

Bryson and I got to spend a lot of time together this weekend because Mom was working. so we decided to go out and work on the yard. I blew all the leaves into a pile and put Bryson into it. He wasn't so sure about the leaves at first.
but he eventually liked being in the pile.
cheese!
cheese!

2008-10-01T13:17:00.000-07:00

I finally decided to get the beast looking presentable. I found two canvas tops in the shed after we moved in. one looks like it might be the original. It's torn to shreds. the other one looks like it's in good condition. I had fun trying to figure out how to put it on. as you can see, I also got a Jerry can (gas can). I got it at a military truck junkyard in Idaho that I saw on the way to Washington.
as you can see, it's in decent shape. the only problem is that the rear plastic window has faded and cracked. I plan on just having the plastic replaced and calling it good.
I found the canopy bows in the shop and decided to see how they looked. They are not all straight because the boards on the back rests are warped. this makes it so I can't put the metal posts into their holes all the way.

2008-09-21T16:54:00.000-07:00

Bryson just loves the kitchen. when he can find something new, he opens it up and loves to find out what's in it.
this time he found powdered sugar.
like I said, Bryson loves the kitchen. he found a quiet place in the pantry.
can you say cheese?

Bryson loves to dance to the music we listen to when we clean the house.

Bryson dances on the bed

trip to Washington

2008-09-21T16:38:00.000-07:00

We went up to Washington to go to my grandmother's funeral. We also got to spend time with Grandma Honey and Grandpa on the boat.

We sailed to Blake Island and spent the night. Mom and bryson swang over a big puddle.
Silly grandma saw that it was raining hard outside and decided it was the perfect time to go scrub down the deck. needless to say, she got soaked.

This is what the rain turned into. major Hail storm.

bryce canyon

2008-07-13T14:29:00.001-07:00

Bryson got in a fight with the cement and the cement won. We went up Mill creek canyon with friends and Bryson tripped and landed on his face on the cement. He split his lip open and scraped up the side of his face.

at our campsite in Bryce canyon, Bryson had fun chasing chipmunks, getting into trouble and eating dirt.

Our family on a hike to see a waterfall and a mossy cave.

I found a couple of lizards basking in the sun and I caught one for bryson to see. they're quick little buggers. bryson liked holding it too. it squirmed away quick when bryson was holding it.

Mommy and Brson waiting for the shuttle to take us to the different stops in Bryce canyon. He doesn't normally let us put a hat on him. He apparently doesn't mind it when we are outside.

Dad and Bryson on a hike in Bryce canyon.
Scenic view at Bryce
another great view. Those rock formations are called hoodoos. they are formed from millions of years of water soaking into the rocks, freezing in the winter and breaking off pieces. the reason they form these spires is because they are covered by a harder more durable layer that does not let water penetrate the lower more brittle layers. Bryce canyon has the highest concentration of hoodoos of any part of the world. pretty cool, Huh Joel?

on our hike, Bryson got tired and fell asleep in the backpack. I carried him about two miles while he was sleeping.

2008-04-27T13:35:00.000-07:00

Before

After. what do you think?

2008-04-20T15:31:00.000-07:00

Uh Oh! I've been caught.
yummy! bark in the park!
three geese in the park with nothing better to do than to pretend to be flamingos.
Yes, I'm sitting in the water.

Derek Zoolander eat your heart out.
I leave for a minute and bryson thinks he should be helping with dishes.

Bryson discovered that leaves and dirt are fun to eat, so we went for a ride.
Bryson loves the horse that he got from his step great grandmother.

Moving the wagon

2008-04-20T14:25:00.000-07:00

I'm so excited. I finally got to move the M-37 into the shop. Giddy as a school boy.
Wade may have a bigger grin than me. We used his Dodge to move my Dodge
windows, windshields, top, all there.
the tires still hold air and the benches and back rests are still there.

Here is the straight six that powers the beast.
look at how small the air cleaner is.
three sticks on the transfer case. what more could a boy want? I believe one of them engages the Winch.
I'm going to have to re-upholster the seats.
she's finally where I can work on her.

Bryson's Cool Hair

2008-04-16T12:25:00.000-07:00

Bryson and I were down in Orem today where my cool friend Emily snapped a couple shots of him with a "faux-hawk"...she did it not me!

Oldies but Goodies

2008-04-16T12:20:00.000-07:00

These were from last June when Bryson was about a month old.

2008-02-03T14:05:00.000-08:00

Wade and I spent most of this saturday reinforcing the top floor of the shed. I think we did a spectacular job.
it was fun.

Bryson got ITP. it is a childhood auto-immune disorder that only happens once. We rushed him to Primary Childrens hospital after a doctor friend told us to. he spent one night in the hospital and was given prednazone (a steroid) to suppress his immune system. his immune system needed to be suppressed because it was attacking his blood platelets. platelets aid in clotting blood. Bryson's body wasn't clotting when he had injuries, hence the bruising.
If we didn't get him to the hospital, he could have bled internally and that would have been bad.
his platelet count was down to 2,000. normal is 145,000 to 400,000.
our old college friends came to see us and they all brought their kids.
Mom and Brysie on a nice, snowy Superbowl sunday. We got 5" in the morning and I shoveled for about an hour and a half.
It's been snowing so much lately that we don't have room for snow anymore. you see that pile on the right? yeah, that's our fence. all of the snow now gets shoveled into the neighbor's yard.

This is our new home. we will be moving in around the 17th of December. two car garage in front.
My shop in the back.
it's a split level with three bedrooms.
nice back yard complete with orchard, garden, and shed.
very nice deck with a shade tree.
We're very excited to move in and make some changes to make it our own.

2007-12-02T08:31:00.000-08:00

This is what Wade and I did thanksgiving morning instead of playing "fooseball" with all the neighborhood boys. This is his new toy. a '97 Dodge Ram.
Bryson has recently learned to roll over. first from front to back, then with in the last couple days, from back to front. he really has to have something he really wants just out of reach to do that though. Jen told me that he has done it a few times while I was away at work. I hadn't seen him until I was playing with my new impact wrench on the floor next to him. he just had to see the new toys, I mean tools.
happy family!
this is Bryson's first tool. a 1/4 inch socket wrench.
I wonder what this tastes like.

These are just pictures of when I dressed Bryson up all schnazzy for church.

I even combed his hair.
Within the last month or two, Bryson discovered his feet. he enjoys them as much as any of his toys.

My new project

2007-12-02T07:43:00.000-08:00

There is a 1963 Military Dodge Power Wagon in the back yard of the house we are buying.

Jen Gave me permission to buy it. It's got a lot of the original equipment on it including a PTO winch on the front, benches in the bed to carry personel, and blackout lights on the front for convoys.
I'm excited to work on it. It's going to look great when it's finished.

These are pictures of what it's supposed to look like.

2007-10-20T13:13:00.000-07:00

I couldn't get Bryson to stop crying, so I wrapped him up in a blanket,set him on the couch and he went right to sleep.

Dad couldn't put up with bryson's fussyness, so he was forced to sit on his hands. he calmed down pretty quick.

Bryson in his cute little turtle hat ready to go to yellowstone.

We went to South Dakota to se Jen's Grandparents and other relatives. We got to go see some fun sites like this one.

Sorry, This has been a long time coming but since Jen wakes up in the middle of the night and feeds the baby so I won't be tired at work, and is taking an online class, I'm the one in charge of the blog.

I guess we'll start at the beginning. when we got married. some of you probably haven't got any good pictures of that yet. I know. It's been almost two years since we've been married and we haven't even gotten our pictures for our wedding book developed. so here we go.

This is Jen and I in front of the Salt Lake temple with her family gathered around.

What a happy couple!

Mom blew this one up for us and we have it framed in our living room.

This is the quilt that my mom made for Jen. We like it alot!

That's it for now. I gotta go prepare a lesson for primary.
