Introducing...Brody Lee McNeall

I wanted to share two precious pictures with everyone. The first one is of our sweet new nephew, Brody. The other is of Brody being admired by his three older brothers. So sweet! I can't imagine FOUR BOYS!!! But what fun! Hopefully we can venture to Kansas City soon to see him in person. I am just dying to hold and kiss that little guy!

Me, Marah, and Mint Ice Cream!

I just wanted to share one picture of me and my niece, Marah. We took this picture my last trip home. We were actually waiting at the airport for my flight back to Phoenix. Marah was enjoying a Mint Chocolate Chip ice cream cone, and I just couldn't resist so I had to sneak a bite. After that, we just took a silly shot for the camera. Marah is alot of fun. She is an adorable 9 year old with a very bubbly personality (can't you tell?).

I apologize

Okay so first off I want to say "I'm sorry"...I am sorry that I created a blog and then haven't done anything on it for almost 2 months! I haven't forgot about it, I have simply been unable to post on it. I think our home computer is crashing and it has been refusing for me to update this blog. I vow to get this issue fixed soon. I am having to write this post on my work laptop, but I would love to be able to post some pictures for you guys, but where are those?????? On my ever-crashing home computer!!! Bummer!

Anyway, just to give a quick update:

• Kevin and I have finished landscaping our backyard!


• My nephew, Wade (A.K.A. Jerry), spent 3 weeks with us and we had an absolute BLAST!


• I went home to Alabama for a family reunion and saw people that I have not seen in 3 or more years! I also got to see rain for the first time in 4 months.
• And last but not least...we have a BEAUTIFUL new nephew:

***Congratulations Rod, Amy, Ryan, Connor, and Caleb on the new addition to your beautiful family. We are so happy for you guys and love you very much! Give Brody LOTS of kisses for us!***

Okay, so that's about it for now. Again, I am sorry for the huge gap in posts...I will be back soon. Hopefully, I will be able to share some pics of the yard, my nephew's visit, and of our new little nephew. Hope everyone is doing well.

Love, Brenda

Welcome to Our Blog!

Hi Everyone! Kevin and I thought it would be fun to create this blog for all of our friends and family. This way everyone can keep up with what's happening in our life...not that it is all that interesting:) My good friend April from Memphis has a blog and has been trying to get me to create one for a while now. As you can see, she finally convinced me to, mainly because I know how hard it is to keep in touch with others when you live so far away. I enjoyed viewing April's blog over the last few months and being able to see what is going on with her and her beautiful family. I also have to mention that she and her mom helped me create this page and get setup. Isn't our logo neat? Thank you both so much!
Okay, so what is going on with Kevin and I you ask? A bunch of nothing. We are both just busy with work. Kevin is having to travel back and forth to Denver and I am LOVING my new job! We are in the middle of re-landscaping our backyard so Kevin has been proving that he can do some "manly things"...he even rented some big-boy yard equipment!
Our kids (the dogs) are doing well. I will post some pictures of them soon.
I hope everyone is doing well and I hope ya'll will enjoy our new blog!!!! Be sure to check back soon for updates!
