Baby Bryson Scott Bowman

Tami's newest one. Here he is on that first day. He had trouble stablizing his blood sugar for the first 12 hours. He was so tiny, just 6 lbs even and was just 1 week early.




Emilee Holds her little brother. He looks a lot like Scott!




Here is is on the 2nd day. Just like a minature Scott!





Christmas Eve

We went to Tami's for Christmas Eve for the traditional Egg Nog. This was our families off year, so we were absent Kevin & Melanie and Steph and Jared. Grandma and Grandpa Starr were with us and Great Grandpa Starr read the Christmas story to the children. The live nativity participants were: Mary=Emilee Joseph= Blake angel=AnnaBelle. Too bad Tami's little guy was not here yet so we could have a live Jesus. The eggnog was yummy!







On the Freeway Christmas Eve

Well of course, what else do you expect to see driving down the freeway on Christamas Eve? They left from the zoo. Do you suppose they rent these out for pageants?

Stephanie & Jay on Bikes

We have some of the best downhill biking (and uphill) near us on the actual Mormon trail. This is Stephanie and Jay before they started down (If they were at the bottom they would be covered in mud splatters!) It has been only 2 1/2 weeks since Stephanie had little Ellie.
