Appetite for Destruction

Finally.............Dave is the new breakfast chef at the Brian Head Lodge. He starts on Monday. I am so proud, and happy that he will be doing what he loves. Thanks to God that some one was willing to give him a chance to dazzle them with his culinary skills. Before, those amazing talents were only sampled by a lucky, select few. He is on cloud nine. i am breathing a sigh of relief. the only problem is that now he won't be home to make my breakfast. I will get over it.

Out of Touch

Has it really been 2 weeks since my last post? Have you all missed me? Not much new to report.

Heather is working (babysitting) most days and volunteering, too. Theresa is looking for a job and enjoying the summer before her senior year. Drew is just being a 16 year old boy, whatever that entails (I am not sure I will ever understand....). Dave and I are reading a lot and making plans for the next couple of years. Pretty much the same old stuff.

Theresa Caitlyn is 17!

She loves to draw and is known to spend all day on one picture, making it perfect. She likes school and plans on studying Physical Therapy as she prepares to go to college next year. She is smart with her money and takes pride in saving it for something. She is mature and responsible, has her daddy's intelligent sense of humor. She loves to hang out with her boyfriend Mitchell, listen to his band and wander around town with their friends. She loves music and is always humming a tune. She still loves to watch Sponge Bob and giggles at Wipeout. She is a chameleon who can change her hair style and color on a monthly basis and manage to always make it work. We are happy to have her as a part of our lives and we know we can trust her to do what is right. But, we will always call her Stinky.

Drew at 16

I just remembered that I went to the theater to see The Lion King the night before Drew was born. Just like Simba, Drew has grown into a smart, resilient young man who is full of spunk and courage. He spends most of his days playing Halo 3 on the X box and hanging out with his best friend, Jamon. He is still a Star Wars fan (smart boy) and loves to watch movies and go hiking on the trails around our neighborhood. Dave and Drew like to bond over nerdy comic book characters and discuss video games. Drew will still come cuddle with me on the couch, when it is his idea. He loves his green Converse shoes, Metallica t-shirt and hates his curly dark brown hair. He is shaving now, at least 3 times a week! He will be getting his Learner's permit soon and will be driving before we know it. I could not be happier with the person he is becoming. I guess it is time to stop calling him my Drewper. Then again, maybe not.
