Over the hill Birthday

Brant had his birthday on Friday it also marks 3 years working for NAU. With school starting and volleyball season celebrations sometimes get pushed to the side. I am so grateful Brant is so easy going, before practice we took Brant up a little birthday surprise.

Bennett also turned 7 months. He spends his days in the gym coaching with mom. Here he is checking out the sports section!

The next day we went over the hill actually 6 miles up a hill doing a climb for cancer. This event was really cool. Thanks Tera for putting it together and including us.  Bennett loved it, look how happy he is.

As the hike went on I’m not sure how much he loved getting his face squished but he did great.

The kids did awesome too!

The weather was perfect, scenery gorgeous and the company was great. Here's our team, where are all the kids?

Well after we got to the top the weather wasn’t so perfect. Lunch at the top we felt a few drops then it started to rain we caught the bus to the bottom of the hill and it was pouring and we had to catch one more bus to get back to our cars. We were soaked by the time we loaded the bus. Here we are in this group and the kids are looking for some protection from the elements and we see Annette gathering them under her wings.

It really cracked me up Annette is so tiny but she seemed to be the safest place.

Then Sunday we had friends over to celebrate Brant’s birthday. Brant did not want cake and told me several times not to make a cake. So I made lemon bars and he was thrilled.

But the gift he was most excited about was the matching bracelets one says best and the other says friend. Hailey and Rianne thought we were celebrating their friendship anniversary. They have BFF everything from key chains, to shirts. Jordan had to get in on that action here is the best friend fist bump

 Here is a picture of our backyard too we love living here in beautiful flagstaff.

Brant even if you feel old I don’t think you are over the hill Even though the past little while life has seemed all uphill I am glad we are making this climb together. Happy Birthday!
