Love you Cole!

Happy 10th Birthday!

Are You Smarter Than a Scientist?

We were all sitting at at the dinner table last night, and dad was reading the bible to us.

We were talking about rebellion which  brought up the topic of  evolution.

Cason, the family evangelist, was telling us what he tells his friends when they talk about evolution.

Cason says to them,

"When I think of evolution I picture someone scattering a box of legos, and then putting some CO2 on them and blowng the legos all up. Then once they're blown up and all in the air, they fall back down and they make a perfect little house."

Then after he says that he says

 "Order can't be made form destruction."

I thought that was a neat way he put it.

Cason said that once he says that they stop arguing about evolution. hehee

I guess in a way they see how he's right.

We were all talking about this and Kamryn looked like she was deep in thought, and she said,

"You know what! I'm smarter than a Scientist!"

My dad asked her why, and she said

"Because scientists believe in aliens."

My dad said "You're right Kamryn."

Then Cole chimed in and said,

"Well, I'm smarter than a scientist too!"

Dad asked him why and he said, in a his very fast voice,

"Because they think that there was a speck, and then that speck turned into a tad pole, and then that tad pole turned into a frong, ok I know tadpoles do that, but then they think that frogs grow wings and then they can fly. Then the scientists believe that they turn into apes, and then they turn into cave men, and then they're people with long beards."

He knew this was funny, and so did the rest of the family.

Good Bye 2009!

Well, this is my last post for the year 2009!!

 It went by so extremely fast!

 I think almost too fast, but I like that I'm getting older and, hopefully, wiser. ;D

We ended off our amazing 2009 with an oyster roast at our friends family's church.

We first had a church service, and then we went outside for some fun and food.

I really enjoyed talking to, and meeting, new people... country people are so nice!!

It was a lot of fun, and I'm so proud, and blessed, to be a member of a big family with amazing, God fearing parents!

When we went into the sanctuary, for the service, we took up a whole row of seats, and we just, I think, really stood out... alot.

It was so funny because when the church service was over, and everyone was still patiently, and quietly, sitting in their seats, a man stood up and announced the congregation, "Uuuuumm, someone left their light on in their van... it's a big van... a 15 passenger van..."

Now who could that beeee? ;)

We knew it was us right off the bat, so, with out even asking dad if the van was ours, Cole ran out and turned them off.

Love that boy!

It sounds like a war zone outside, and so I think I'm about to go watch some neighbors shoot fireworks. :)

I hope you all have a very blessed 2010!!

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!

•Bonnie and Clyde•

I absolutely adore this picture of Cole and Kamryn. It just really speaks for itself. They are definitely a little team. Bonnie and Clyde, right here folks. I'm serious! 

Today Cole and Kamryn- Ok, I'm not proud of what they did, I'm just telling- they were on a walk with Kimmi, and there were two little boyscouts, probably about 9-years-old selling popcorn door-to-door, and pulling it around in the back of their cute little red wagons. Anyway, one of the two little boys said to Cole, "Heeey, don't you know you're riding a girls bike?" and Cole, aka Clyde, the comeback KING said, "Well , don't you know you're pulling a little girl wagon?" and Kamryn, aka Bonnie, added in, "Yeeeah, and where are the little baby dolls that you should be pulling in the back?!?" After this was all said and done Cole, the popcorn LOVER of the Brown family, asked the boys, "How much is your popcorn?" I thought that last line was pretty funny. Just so everyone knows they were corrected. My parents didn't see the same amount of humor in it that I did. They were looking at it from the perspective of evangelists, and Cole and Kamryn were terrorizing the boyscouts. This would be opposite of evangelizing here people. I have to laugh whenever I think about it though. 

Do ya'll have any funny brother/sister stories?

Vacation

This is the ONLY picture of Cole where he wasn't making a crazy face. HA!

It's always been a race in the Brown family to push the button on the elevator first. At this time it was only Max, mom and myself so he didn't have any competition. Cason and me don't do it any more. Well, sometimes we do just to antagonize the other competitive kids. = D hehehe!

Nona and Jessie

I LOVE that crazy boy!!!!

This was in the room I was staying in and I told him to make a happy face and this was the best he could do. = )
