Halloween Party!

We had our Pumpkin Carving/Costume Party last month and had such a blast!! Here are some pictures of all the fun. We had good food, great costumes & fabuloso pumpkins.
I don't know how the Hadley's got away with not getting a family picture...they looked so good, I am bummed we don't have a group shot of them. I thought I would be creative and come up with some Halloween games we could play. Lets just say, I will be leaving the whole game creation thing up to the professionals from now on. They were a bit LAME! : ) Although...I must say it was entertaining to watch Mark & Wendy belly dance with pumpkins on their waist!

Tunk or Treat

Here we are on our way to "Trunk or Treat" at the church. Can you guess who Bryan is? Ronan was the cutest little penguin!! You should have seen him waddle around in that costume. Regan was Optimus Prime & Rhys was Bumble Bee (Transformers) and they loved it!! Any excuse to fight each other and get away with it! : )

FUZZY SHOT

Hey, we do have some pics that we upload from Bryan's iPhone from time to time that you can see, since we are so bad at updating this, you can at least see some of the things we are up to here. Go to www.fuzzyshot.com/rugbybryan There are some shots of his recent drive to North Carolina, some crafts I am working on, and our mini vaca to Helen, GA. I promise I will update this soon!!

7-7-08 Chubby's Birthday Party...

I'll admit it, I'm a slacker....as if you didn't already know. It's been a month and a half until our last post. Any way, here are pictures from Regan's Birthday party.

Regan's 1st Day of Kindergarten...

Today was Regan's 1st day of kindergarten at his new elementary school. He was very excited and has made new friends. I'll admit I was a little more anxious about him going to a new bigger school than he was used to at pre-k. He came home and did a great job. He behaved wonderfully and had fun. We're excited for him.

Bryan

PS-I'll post some pics later. I'm a slacker.

Tagged...

Here's a little about me, thanks to a tag from Sarah Hillgrove (I think). She didn't include last names, so I am assuming I'm the only Bryan with a "y" that she knows. She tagged me 2 weeks ago, I'm just been too lazy to reply.

1. What was I doing 10 years ago?
I was serving a mission for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints to the people of San Antonio, TX (English speaking). Probably sweating to death on a bike wearing slacks in 100 degree weather. (I haven't owned or ridden a bike since returning home.)

2. What was I doing 5 years ago?
We were living in Cookeville, TN and I was anxously awaiting the birth of our first son, Regan Carter Topham. I was also probably trying to rehab my right shoulder from surgery as a result of a rugby injury.

3. What was I doing 5 months ago?
I was more than likely spending every waking minute of the day waiting hand and foot on my beautiful wife. When you're done laughing, I was probably just spending time with the family, working, church callings, and refereeing rugby.

4. 5 Things on my To-Do List:
1. Finish a family blog for my parents and siblings.
2. Pack for a family trip to Texas.
3. Buy Ronan's & Regan's birthday presents.

6. 5 things I would do if I became a Billionaire:
1. QUIT MY JOB!!!!!
2. Pay off all my debt and that of my loved ones (stole that from Sarah)
3. Travel the world
4. Buy my favorite sports franchises (or start a professional rugby league in the USA/Canada)
5. Send my parents on a mission

7. 5 Bad Habits:
1. Road Rage
