Bryson Surgery

Bryson will be having a followup surgery from his Cranio surgery in September. Please pray for him, us, our family, and the medical staff.

Snicker Brownie Trifle

Here is the recipe of the Snicker Brownie Trifle I made for my mom on Mother's Day.

SNICKER BROWNIE TRIFLE

1 Large container Cool Whip, thawed

1 box fudge brownie mix (I used ghirardelli) (Nothing but the best for my mom)

12-14 Snickers bar, cut long ways 4 times and the each one cut about 1/2 inch or you can chop them up.

1 large box of chocolate instant pudding

Bake brownies according to package instructions.
Let cool and cut into squares.
Make instant pudding according to package instructions.

Assembly: Layer trifle accordingly in a deep glass bowl or trifle bowl. 1/2 Brownies, 1/2 Pudding, 1/2 Snickers, 1/2 Cool Whip. After first layers repeat again, ending with Cool Whip.

You can also sprinkle some of the snickers on top of the cool whip on the final layer for decoration. I actually used my mom's other favorite candy M & M's and spelled out MOM.

I hope you all enjoy this!!!!!!!!

Snow Day January 2010

Bryson and I enjoyed playing in the snow for just a little bit. It was 24 degrees outside, just too cold. We both love the snow. Sean is at work but will be here tomorrow when we will take Bryson sledding for the first time.

Sean at Work - Snow Day

Sean is working hard at the fire station today. What other job can you play snow baseball, and sit in a snow chair and get paid for it. All joking aside, he is at work today for his 24 hour shift at the fire station. There is really not much you can do when it is snowing outside except wait for a call, clean the station, check the trucks, oh yeah and eat!

Big Boy Bed

Bryson is now in a big boy bed. We told him if he did not get out of his bed all week we would take him somewhere special on Friday night. Well he did pretty good so we took him to the mall and he went Bungee Jumping.

My mom and dad went with us and then we all went out to dinner and got back home just in time for the SNOW!

Fun was had by all especially Bryson!

Bryson the Artist (Bob Ross look a like)

This morning Bryson was watching PBS cartoons after the cartoons a show called "Painting With Bob Ross" came on and Bryson watched almost the entire show. Later that day after his nap Bryson wanted to draw so I got out his art kit he recieved for Christmas from Santa. Sean, Bryson and I were all drawing. Bryson said to us, "I want to paint". I got a little cup of water, and his brushes and said, "here you go Bryson." Bryson said, "I need my hat". Sean said, "What hat?" Bryson said, "The hat like that man on t.v." We both fell out laughing. The man on T.V. has an "afro (a hairstyle in which the hair extends out from the head like a halo, cloud or ball) not a hat. See pictures below of our little Artist Bryson and then Bob Ross for a comparison and also Bryson's art work.

Washing Dishes

Bryson loves to wash dishes with his Mema all the time.
