The Heaps

* A week in the sun with the cutest family around, that's what I call a spectacular January thaw. As you can see from this picture there is never a dull moment at Jamie's house. I shouldn't boast but I think I have the best Moms and Dads of the best grand kids in the whole world! So much love bouncing off every wall at the Heaps House.

Good Morning World, call out these three brothers.
Did I mention anything about the Best Cooks too? Oh this Birthday Dinner was Devine!

Birthday Balloons, Homemade place mattes and hats, party plates and whistles, and creamy Chocolate Carmel Turtles! We all ate till we couldn't breath. Thank you Jamie.

Here is the winner of the Phoenix 13 mile marathon, not even very out of breath. Her picture was on the front page of the Anthem Times. No one could believe she has three boys. Jamie you will always make hot news. I love you and your home and your family! Thank you for being so generous with us. We are all rested and inspired, and we hold so many happy memories of being with you! Love you Always and Forever, Mom

Happy Birthday Mattao

Happy Birthday Matt. I love this picture of you, sitting in my favorite chair with two of my favorite little ones. I love that Grady is holding on to your ear, and it is just fine with you. I think you are holding on to Bret's ear at the moment. Life is an amazing shifting of places. I remember a thought we had in our bathroom off the kitchen in our Grand View Home. I think it was called Brothers. We are in this life together, no one goes his way alone. All that we give out to others, returns and is our own. The words are definitely wrong, but the thought is the same. Thank you Bret for all you do to help Matt. He loves you and I do too! If Matt could get his Birthday wish today, I bet he would go goose hunting, watch an exciting movie, eat at Carabias, and kiss someone good night. . . .next year.

So cute Kelly. You have on your red ear rings, bandanna, some kind of ribbon corsage, and you are smiling. Dad looks so happy. Where does the time go? I wish I had taken more pictures when you were little. Your kids will have a million thanks to their photographer Mom. Good Luck! Love ya!

Fathers

Kelly, I know the picture you want, but I can't find it. I think I gave everyone their own pictures when they got married. Maybe one of these will do. Think this is Dad holding Matt, but it could just as easily been you. There is some kind of communication going on there.

I remember this day like it was yesterday.

This is Dad and Kade. I think it is tender.

Good Luck Kelly, sure wish I could be there for you talk!! Call me and tell me about it.

January Birthdays!

Happy Birthday REE! OOOOOO LA...LA! I love these two! I can imagine you today in Vegas kicking up your heels. Hope you have an exciting time. (No ear aches!). Dad and I are thinking about rich you make our lives. The few weeks you stayed at our house when you moved to Provo were such a gift. It was so great to watch your family routines. How you woke up, played hard all day, and then quieted down for night. I adore your family! You are a happy Mom, and a DELUXE daughter. HAPPY BIRTHDAY!
Matthew B. I actually have a few pictures of you. So nice. I love you in the red chair just chilling with little Grady. I would love to have a snow party for your Birthday. I wonder if you could still get up on the table and do the Pee Wee Herman dance, along with "Walk Like An Egyptian" . We have a new recipe for a Pork Butt Roast, bet you would like it. You have made all of our hearts drawn to you this Christmas Season. We love you and your muscles and we can't wait to mug on you. HAPPY, HAPPY, BIG ONE!
