I love the fact that it is an easy way to share stories and pictures with friends and family that we don't get to see often.  I also love that I can write about the special moments that happen around our house every day.  So, here we go. . .&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Willy and I will celebrate our eight year anniversary at the end of December.  Eight years have flown by and I wouldn't want to be on this ride with anyone else.   It is amazing to see Willy as a father.  He is the fun parent-the one who throws them in the air and lets them eat potato chips for supper.  He is definately Jerry and Callie's hero.  They are lucky to have a Daddy like him.   Willly loves working in the natural gas field and never stops.  He is on call 24/7.  When he is not fixing a compressor, he is usually at the fire station.  He serves our small community as the fire chief and enoys doing so.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I taught third grade for several years and quit to have Callie last August.  Although, I miss my kids at school, I love staying at home with the kids and am trying to enjoy every moment.  I know this precious time will fly by way too fast.  I am so thankful for the chance to be with my children every day.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Jerry Bradford is a fun four year old, who loves to play outside and ask tons (and I do mean tons) of questions.  He is smart and his insights often amaze me.  I often think, "Out of the mouths of babes . . ."  He loves to follow his Daddy around-kind of like a puppy.  He is a great big brother and loves teaching Callie new things.  Jerry is currently learning to ride his bike without training wheels. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Callie Anne will turn 15 months old on the 15th.  She is a sweetheart and is a complete "mommy's girl."  Her temper can match her red hair, but she is easy going most of the time.  She loves to climb on anything and everything-her favorite  is the dining room table and Jerry's ladder up to the top bunk.  She has been such a sweet addition to our family. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now that you are caught up with us-stay tuned for more updates&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Linn&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4452414071254019696-3541077953257154007?l=linnrichards.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://linnrichards.blogspot.com/feeds/3541077953257154007/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4452414071254019696&amp;postID=3541077953257154007' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4452414071254019696/posts/default/3541077953257154007'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4452414071254019696/posts/default/3541077953257154007'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://linnrichards.blogspot.com/2008/11/starting-our-blog.html' title='Starting our Blog'/><author><name>Linn Richards</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10275590311453750605</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry></feed>
