Jackson's 2nd birthday

Well our little man turned 2 on August 21, I cant believe it.. he has grown up so fast. He is soo much fun. We celebrated his birthday 3 times, he is one lucky boy. We celebrated with Brad's family before we left and then we had a party with my mom and then my dad. There are few benefits to having a divorced family but having multiple birthdays and christmases is probably the only one. Jackson got TONS of stuff. He loves his bike and worm the best. He ate lots of cake and it was really neat that we got to have a party with my family as well. We miss Brad's family soo much. It has been an adjustment to say the least but I love being around my family. Jackson is talking so much. He has such a personality. One of my favorite thing he does is he goes into his room and reads to himself. He LOVES books. One of his favorite sayings is.."Here you go, buddy" I love it. He loves cars and Thomas the train. He sings twinkle , twinkle little star and the popcorn song. He is such a blessing in our lives and he is such a happy little boy!!!!

Moving to MO!!

So Brad got a phone call on Monday from Lincoln University in Missouri. We were confused because they had already said thanks but no thanks.. I guess they realized that they had made a mistake. They have a new coach now and they want Brad to play for them. He is getting a full ride scholarship and some money each month for housing.. WHAT A BLESSING! We are super excited because it is a D2 school and everything that we wanted and more!! We will be really close to where I grew up which is kinda scary. My family lives about an hour and a half away. We are looking forward to the adventure!!!!! We are leaving Portland on August 5!

Jackson loved riding the John Deere with Bradley. He loves his daddy. One of the many reasons why I married Brad is because he reminds me of my grandpa (not the old part). My grandpa was a kind, loving and genuine man. He loved my sister and I so much and would do anything in the world for us. Brad is such an amazing husband. He has soo many wonderful qualities that I hope one day will rub off on me :)

Jackson is SUCH a happy boy!!!
