My Monsters

One of Max's favorite things to do is act like a monster. He and Lucy will often walk around and growl like a scary monster. I got them to do it for the camera.

Lied Children's Museum

I LOVE CLIFFORD THE BIG RED DOG!!!

We all went on Lucy's field trip with her. This museum is completely hands-on and a complete blast for the kids. (I had a lot of fun too!)

Here's Max and Lucy at the Bubble Factory.







Bubbles, bubbles every- where!









Bubble Rings!
Max had to try out everything that Lucy was trying. I think he was quite proud of himself.


Lucy rocking out with the green sceen. I think they were all playing soccer here.







Lucy got to try out wheelchair basketball.







Max working on the pulley chair.







Saying Hello to Emily Elizabeth.





We almost missed the Clifford Exhibit... good thing we didn't I think this was their favorite part.





Clifford is one of Lucy's favorite shows, I will often hear her barking with joy as she watches.

Yikes Were Riding A Bike!




Our friends the Nailors gave Max this bike. It has proven a blessing for both Lucy and Max. They take turns riding it to the mailbox and back to the apartment. Max used to stop and try to get on every motorcycle we saw on this trip, but now he's content with his own.

Christmas for the Bromleys

This is Lucy's Preschool Christmas Program with the Tater Tots. I was so proud. She knew all the words and sang very loud.

Josh and I embroidered the kids names on their new stockings this year.

Christmas Eve! My kids seem to always save a little food for later.

Why go all out for Christmas when a nice ball is all you need to be happy. Max has named his Bobbie (after his auntie).

Ashley will probably kill me, but Hazel looks too stinking cute to pass up posting this picture.

WE ARE SUPER FREAKS! WE'RE SUPER FREAKY!

Walking in a Winter Wonderland?

No, you don't need glasses it's snowing in Vegas! The kids were thrilled, but didn't get a chance to build a snowman, bear or dog.

The Bromley Family

Bromley Family Letter
Happy Valentines Day!!!

With the Holiday Season safely behind us, I thought I’d write a little family Newsletter and tell everyone hello and let you all know what we’ve been up to (Cause I know you’re all dying to know).
I think this is the first year Josh and I wimped out on costumes. For our ward Halloween party I was a dead bride and Josh wore a tuxedo shirt, but we couldn't bring ourselves to pull it together one more time.

I know every year is a year full of change; well this year has been that for us. We are now in Las Vegas and Josh is in his 3rd month of the Police Academy. He is doing really well and has an incredibly good attitude. Already 13 people have quite out of the 45 that he started with. Josh got himself a buck on the bow hunt this year. Hunting is Josh’s passion and I think he thinks about this nearly as much as he thinks of his family.

I am now pregnant with our third baby… a little girl (any name ideas would be appreciated). We actually weren’t going to find out the sex, but the doctor had other plans. I decided to start this New Year with a new hair do inspired by the pop singer PINK. I think Josh likes having a punk rocker wife. I’m still quilting and scrapbooking though I’ve had no time for it lately. Since our move to Las Vegas, I have actually started cooking. Josh now enjoys home cooked meals instead of cold cereal and take-out (Who’d a Thunk!). In April, Josh watched the kids for 3 weeks while I went to Egypt, Israel and Jordan. It was an amazing experience and I feel blessed that I was able to go.

Lucy is still obsessed with animals and you will often find her lining up her stuffed animals and teaching them or taking them on some kind of adventure. She is currently in Tater Tots… a local preschool. She gets her classmates to join her in games of “Tom & Jerry” among other animal. In September, Lucy got stitches in her chin. She didn’t cry at all at the doctor’s office (due largely to the fact that she would receive a present if she was good).

Max is a boy! Everything he does and is interested in screams boy. He loves tools, balls (his own included), cars, bikes and monsters. The only thing that would make you question this is that he wears his sister’s panties… at least he’s working on getting potty trained right!? Max has quite a vocabulary already. He loves to talk about books and games he and Lucy are playing.

This newsletter is now a blog. I needed something to start with, I guess this is as good as anything.
