"Ian"

A little story about Ian......

On Sunday we lost Ian for about 1 hour!

We finished our sacrament meeting and the kids took off to primary. After an hour of primary his teacher runs into Kasi in the hall and asked if Ian was still sick. She said no, he should have been in class, but his teacher said he never made it to class. We searched the building and NO IAN.... He rode his bike to church, so I checked to see if his bike was missing, but the bike was still on the bike rack, so where is Ian? Kasi is in full panic at this point and I knew if somebody had taken him they would bring him back sooner than later. As I was on my way out to see if he walked home I ran into a neighbor and he asked if I was looking for Ian. I said YES! He said he is at home playing in the front yard. I drove home and there I found Ian Miller covered from head to toe in MUD! I asked him what he was doing at home and he told me that he was sick of church and came home. He said he told mom, but she didn't listen. I told him that someone would steal him and he said "They wouldn't because he was hiding in the back yard in the sand box." Well, we cleaned up and went back to church. On the way home he said "Other people came home the same time I did." The bishop commented that he was going to be the SPY to see who came home early. Needless to say we had a good laugh. He is such a character and full of ......! We love him and he keeps us going.

Ian loves to dress up! It's his favorite thing. Granny has the best dress ups.

Oh how Sweet

I love this picture. I love how comfortable Kaitlyn looks in her Dads arms. I pray that she always feels this way. She has the best Dad in the world. We are all lucky to have Kenny in our lives....now if I could just get him to multi-task around the house he would be perfect!!!

Miller boys at the Basile Ranch

The Miller Boys thought they were at Disneyland, close but we were at the Basile Ranch. Daemon and Nikki had us out to the ranch to have the boys ride horses. Ian was born to be a cowboy and Ian calls Mason is a homme boy cowboy. Andrew Basile was really good to let Mason ride the horse by himself.

Mason made sure his Skate board was on the back.

Ian in Heaven riding his horse and being 100% cowboy!!
