Ashton Trying to be like Uncle Mike

My Brother......... No my Brother....... No Mine!!!!

Amanda and I laugh so hard because Cody and Ashton fight over who baby Cade belongs too. "My brother, No Mine" They always say! I love it I think that it is the funniest thing ever, and as you can see Cade thinks that it is funny too. We love the Henneman's they are the best1 I don't know what Ashton would do with himself if it weren't for the entertaining Cody that comes over. We enjoy it when he comes over ever morning to play, he is such a good friend. Another funny thing is Ashton will sing Cody's name to the ABC song all the time, what a character :)

I would rather be with Grandma and Grandpa

One of Ashton's favorite things to do is to watch while Grandpa make the fire all of the family! He is the best Grandpa in the world because he will let Ash-man help him put all of the kindling and wood in to get the fire started, the best part is when Grandpa lights the fire and Ashton goes crazy like fans at the U of U game!

Grandpa also informs him that when we light the fire we do not touch the fireplace because it will hurt us! Rick your the best Grandpa because I know that Ashton will always remember stuff like this, and this is why he would rather be with you guys ha ha (seriously)

Grandma is soooooo much fun, Ashton and Grandma always play together and explore new things together and she tell him everything their is to know about everything! He love to sit on Grandma's lap and just hang with her all day long. The funniest and I should say cutest thing though is when Ashton gets hurt he always calls for Grandma.... not Mama, Grandma (because lets face it....she is the best).

Also Ashton really loves to go outside on the porch and see all the potguts and chipmunks and squirrels. He loves Grandma's pet "Squirrely" because she is the only one that will let Ashton and Grandma get close to her (and for a squirrel she is really cute). He will sit on the porch for hours just hanging with Grandma looking for potguts for tater to love :) LOL!

Well Done Thy Good and Faithful Servant!

I felt like writing to kindof vent and say what I feel about my mother. I have been not myself lately, I love my mother and I miss her. A few weeks ago we had the last appointment with her Neurologist Dr Foster, but I did not realize that this was her last appointment. The Doctor was talking to Shelly and I about arrangements with her autopsy and what to expect in the next few months. I know that this was inevitable but it really hit me hard thinking that this year could be the last year. I fell selfish in the fact that I am feeling sorry for myself, but with all of the decisions that shelly and I have had to make the past few weeks and seeing her going through all that she is going through right now is really hard to bear. I can't stand to see her in the state that she is in. I do have some regrets in the fact that I wish I could have taken the opportunity of getting to know her more when I was a teenager and not being so self indulged. I hope that she will not be in pain at all, and I hope that she can feel that I love her so much right now. Sometimes I think that this is so unfair to have the happen to her at such a young age and I feel like she was robbed of alot of things, but I know that there is a reason for everything and that maybe this was Heavenly father's way of not letting her emotionally hurt anymore and letting her enjoy life (sorta) and forget the past.

Mom....I just want you to know that it is such an honor taking care of you and being there for you. You have fought a good fight, and heaven holds a special place for you. I wish that I could do more for you but I want you to know that you are such an amazing person and that I appreciate all that you did for me when I was younger and for all the hard work you did to provide for us. I love you so much and I will miss you when you are gone even though with this disease you have been gone for a while. I do know that I will see you again and you will always be with me. I LOVE YOU!

March 17th we were out enjoying the nice weather.......check it out!

My Brother came into town to see the new addition to the family! He is such an amazing little boy...his name is Wyatt Ryan Burton and he was born on the 15th. I was so excited to be in the delivery room to welcome such an amazing little person, I almost forgot how wonderful that feeling is! Shelly & Ryan I am so proud out you guys, you have such an amazing little family and I am so excited to be apart of that! I love you Shelly you are the best sister!

Mom got to hold the little guy and it made her day! She loves hanging out with all the little kids...and they lover her so much! She could not stop laughing. She is such an amazing women! I love you so much mom!

Right when Ashton saw his new cousin he wanted to hold him.....I have to contain him because he was so excited, but who wouldn't be!


Maddie and Shelby are the best older sisters, and such amazing little mothers!
