Our nickname for our dear Bryan is B-ry ("b" "ry").  I can't believe my oldest is 13 years old!  He passed me up (height-wise) like a rocket.  The kid has grown like 6 inches just this year.  One week we measured him and he was an inch shorter than me.  Two weeks later he was an inch taller.  I am really amazed at the person he is becoming.  I couldn't be more proud of him.  He works hard and loves to serve others.  He takes the fact that he holds the priesthood very seriously.  He does not want to disappoint his Heavenly Father.

He also has some amazing friends.  They are a great influence on him.  It was really fun seeing them hang out at his party.
