This child cracks me up with his costumes. His current favorite outfit is this police costume. He has practically worn it everyday since Halloween. He even has a pair of "police glasses" that make him look so cool, according to him. The other day he put these on and it hit me - he looked just like Brad's dad, Boyd! From pictures I have seen, he use to wear those black-rimmed glasses that were in style back in the day. I've always thought that Riley looks like Brad and Brad looks like his dad but I never realized the resemblance between Riley and his grandpa. Boyd died when Brad was 13 years old so I really hate that he never got to see his kids grow up and never got to meet his grand kids. I thank God that he was a Christian and Brad will see him again someday and we will finally get to meet him!

Riley is so cute...I love the glasses....it is amazing how our loved ones can come back to us through our children.
I'm so glad you have a blog! It will be fun to keep up with your family this way! Hope you have a great weekend.
I remember Boyd when I was little staying at Pat's. He would ride us in the back of his pickup. He was such a loving father. I see alot of him in Brad and Riley. I think that is awesome that his presence is here with all of you. He would have been a great grandpa!
