5 BITS: July 2011
http://brianandemilybitner.blogspot.com/2011_07_01_archive.html
Sunday, July 31, 2011. Couldn't help but post this one from the cabin. This girl is going to have a bazillion pictures before she can even walk. Monday, July 11, 2011. First can I just say, holy smokes I have a five year old! Here are a few pics from Lucas' "Cars" birthday party. We decided to go with a pinata. This year. I don't think this one was intended for 5 years olds. Brian finally stepped in and attacked it, but here are some heartfelt attempts. That sneaky bunny left his prints again. Every Vale...

Hadley Adventures: March 2014
http://hadleyadventures.blogspot.com/2014_03_01_archive.html
March 3, 2014. Well, folks, I'm here to tell you that sometimes. rarely, but sometimes.karma gives you a little hand in parenting. Last week there was a box of cookies sitting on my dresser. These weren't just any cookies. These were Cutler's brownie mint cookies. Food of the Gods. This isn't something that makes a regular appearance at our house. (Most likely because it doesn't make it that far from the drive-up window! By "public" I mean Ms. Els. Ms Els, being the sneaky little trickster that she is, t...

Hadley Adventures: At My Age
http://hadleyadventures.blogspot.com/2015/01/at-my-age.html
January 1, 2015. First off, Happy New Year readers. Thanks to all 3 of you for sticking with me :). The marching forward of time has had me reflecting on the fact that this year I will turn 37. That's getting pretty cozy with 40. which is pretty darn close to my mid-life point. The other day The Hubs said to me, "You know, I really should start thinking about what my mid-life crisis is going to involve." Ha ha. Put that on the To-Do List babe. I can't wait to see what 2015 brings. Who are these people?

Hadley Adventures: August 2014
http://hadleyadventures.blogspot.com/2014_08_01_archive.html
August 13, 2014. Well, friends, I'm old. I've known it for a while now, but it hadn't really hit home until I started my new job as a Target employee. Like I told my team lead the other night, "I sweat so much working here that if I don't lose at least 15 pounds I'm gonna be mad". Sweat Where did that come from? When I yell, "Can we fix it? I've decided it's my "Mom-ness" that is the difference. I'm used to picking up after people. To going back to a place I've already cleaned and having to clean...The y...

Hadley Adventures: November 2014
http://hadleyadventures.blogspot.com/2014_11_01_archive.html
November 20, 2014. A day or so ago I had a realization of epic proportions. If I could freeze my children in time. Right now, I would. We have reached a state of independence that is just precious to me. Ms. Els is 11 now, as of last week, and she has started babysitting for us for an hour here and there. Finally, freedom to run and grab a gallon of milk or snag a library book without taking my entire entourage with me. At an IMAX field trip with Ms. Els. JB putting away the clean silverware. And it terr...

Hadley Adventures: Sister Messages
http://hadleyadventures.blogspot.com/2014/12/sister-messages.html
December 18, 2014. One of my most favorite things about modern technology is the ability it gives us to stay in touch with loved ones in such an easy manner. When I was growing up my mom's family was all out of state. I remember timing phone calls (it cost 10 cents a minute after all) and writing a lot of letters as I became a teenager. But our interactions were definitely not on a daily basis. Take this interaction from this week via text:. Sister reply: Want I should. Me: Yep. I own it. Me: I think you...

Hadley Adventures: October 2014
http://hadleyadventures.blogspot.com/2014_10_01_archive.html
October 29, 2014. Boy, what a difference a month makes. My last post had a very different theme than this one will have. Read on. So, I gave my notice at Target last night. Some time during the week of November 10th will be my last day. This wasn't a spur of the moment decision. It has become more apparent recently that the "honeymoon" phase of me working had ended and it was more stress than it was worth to my family. There are several reasons I decided to be done. In no particular order:. Steve, as our...

5 BITS: Lucas turns 5!
http://brianandemilybitner.blogspot.com/2011/07/lucas-turns-5.html
Monday, July 11, 2011. First can I just say, holy smokes I have a five year old! Here are a few pics from Lucas' "Cars" birthday party. We decided to go with a pinata. This year. I don't think this one was intended for 5 years olds. Brian finally stepped in and attacked it, but here are some heartfelt attempts. Lucas and his "Dinoco McQueen" cake. He had a blast with a few close buddies, and as usual was spoiled by grandparents all around. V=Fr2pEtoadvk, its one of my favorites. July 13, 2011 at 7:03 PM.

5 BITS: June 2011
http://brianandemilybitner.blogspot.com/2011_06_01_archive.html
Monday, June 20, 2011. Lucas Singing in the Car. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Brian and I have been married for 7 years now and have three rambunctious little kids that keep us constantly on our toes. We shamelessly love to share every little hilarious comment out of their mouths and I love capturing all their silliness through my lens. This blog is just one more way in which we can do just that! Adam and Becky Holbrook. Adam and Tiffany Rudd. Andrew and Amy Bang. Andy and Tiffany Moosman. Wasatch GC (Lak...
