Wow, how is it that a month can go by and I barely remember to write on this thing, life goes by to fast.

Lets learn to slow it down and make memories.

Well family and friends, Last time I wrote we were talking about how Dallas is going for us and what will be coming up. Brandi is doing amazing in school and loves the education from some of the best teachers. She comes home telling us all about the new spin movement abilities she learns and why it’s important. So it’s a nice massage on my back as she feels around the spin and figure out how its shaped. Brevan will even sit very still and enjoys the attention. Her tests are going great and she says on some she even does better then a majority of those in her class.

Matt has found a job working as a sales man for Toyota here in Lewisville. After finding out that not very many agencies like the idea that he had been fired from Best Buy. So he is waiting a year until it has passed and will look again. While working at Toyota he is networking and finding people that have good information about how to look for good federal jobs. But things even look good to receive chances in management at Toyota. So for now he is willing to go either way that blesses our home more and allows greater chances for the kids and Brandi. 

This last Tuesday was Brevans birthday and we all celebrated it on Wednesday. There is a mall here that had an aqua life museum and he loved looking at all the fish. For his birthday of three years he got new clothes and a BBQ grill likes dads and has already made lots of food for us all to eat, he got it from his Papa and Mema Heinitz. From Mema and Papa Hurst he got a Buzz lightyear and from his parents he got other clothes and an ice cream cake and a wiggle racer like grate grandma Clonts has in her basement. He loved every minute of it and enjoys birthdays now. 

Chloe is beginning to crawl and gets into more than Brevan does. She loves real food and can’t get enough.

Well one other event happened lately that was a scary one for us. On this day Matt had brought home a large SUV to test out and learn the product while taking a lunch. Matt all had thought Brevan was out in the garage playing with Brandi’s car and went inside to say good bye to Brandi before he went off to work. While Matt left through the front door Brandi thought Brevan had went into the living room after coming inside to play with his toys he has in there. Well Brevan decided to go out the front door and try to get in the car with Matt. Brevan had stepped onto the running board and grabbed the door handle as Matt started to drive off. Luckily Matt had to drive slow through the street being that its cramped and the SUV was large. After passing almost 7 houses Matt heard a little knock on the side of the car and he looked in the side mirror and saw Brevan on the ground. Of course he hurried as fast as possible to him and a neighbor called 911. Through blessings and grace from our loving Father he got away with small road rash on his back in three places, arm and a nice goose egg on his head. He was monitored for the rest of the day and didn’t show any signs of problems. Today he has all but a small red area on one side of his back and we all now know the importance of extreme case safety procedures. I wanted to share this to help those that we love who may find themselves in this area with their kids too. 

Here is just a taste of what happened at his party as well, there is more on FB of course. 

Well for now that’s all that has happened, and we will all see you soon at Denise’s Wedding to Mugs.

Have a great time and don’t burn the cabin down.

A Heap Full

Hello after so long,

I can’t believe that I never took the chance to write a little here and there to let my family know what’s going on with my family. Well a lot of exciting and fun stuff has happened and is about to happen with all of us.

Let’s see the last time I wrote was 2010 Fourth of July. Wow. Since then My family and I have moved to Provo for about a year where Brandi finished her prerequisites for Parker Chiropractic school she wants to go to. While living in Provo I ended up going to school at Utah Valley University studying Criminal Justice from some of the best teachers who were formally FBI agents, DEA agents, Defense attorney and also a Detective for the Orem PD.

While living in our apartment in Provo Brandi and I had another wonderful addition to our family, on September 14, 2011 where Chloe was born at about 9:50 am in the American Fork Hospital.

Brevan was a great boy at our neighbors and loved the new baby and still loves making her laugh.

In February of 2011 I started working at Peak Alarm where I was a guard for a huge business park called Canyon Park Technology Center. I mostly worked night and swing shifts, which were a little hard on all of us, but got us the money we needed and gave me the time to attend all of my classes easily.

I feel bad skimming all of this stuff but hopefully I will be better about posting and will keep more detailed writing.

In November of 2011 Ginger, Brandi’s sister who had recently gotten married to Steven Hobson, asked us if we wanted to live in their new house, in the basement, that they had bought in Eagle Mountain Utah for a great deal so we could save some money. We agreed and moved to Eagle Mountain after our thanksgiving break where we had visited Brandi’s parents for the holiday.

Last December I was able to graduate from UVU with a bachelor’s degree in Criminal Justice and an emphasis in accounting.

Between the months of January of this year to March I worked days full time and we all spent time together at Gingers and Stevens house. Brevan started learning very fast and now knows all of his basic colors, he has been able to count to ten on his own, and sings a variety of songs from nursery. His two favorites are Twinkle Twinkle Little Star and I Am a Child of God. 

On April 5^th we found a house in Lewisville Texas which is a suburb of Dallas, about 30 min north of Dallas. Here we have started a new milestone for both Brandi and I. Brandi is starting her Doctorates Program at Parker on Monday the 7^th. She is very excited and cant wait to get back to school and really dive into her life desire of being a great Chiropractor. I have applied to be a Texas State Trooper and am in the process of getting ready to start the academy in June. I have passed the physical testing and written test all I have left is a polygraph test, an oral board review and then a psychological test before I enter. The one thing that is good about becoming a Trooper is that the training is the most rigorous and demanding then any department I have ever seen. I have also been told that many federal agencies look to the Texas Troopers for hiring because of it; it’s basically like boot camp.

Well that is the last year and a half or so all wrapped up in highlights.  

Now don't burn the cabin y'all.
