Happy Birthday Braden!!
October 24, 2008 Braden turned 4 on Oct. 17, 2008. We were on vacation at Glacier National Park and had a great time. Braden got a Spiderman costume which he wears all the time now along with his Batman costume, often at the same time. He is the ultimate superhero, taking the strengths of both and combining them into a superior character. He also got some Spiderman and Batman toys. He is in heaven. We were so lucky to have Grandma and Grandpa Brimhall here for his birthday. I can't believe it has been four years since he was born. We love you Braden.
I did remember his birthday on the actual day and now that I know you guys were gone I'll say we tried to call. Ok, the truth is, I kept thinking to myself, "As soon as I'm done with _______ (fill in the blank), we'll call and Gage can wish him Happy BDay." But too many of those, and then I forgot. I'm so glad he had such a great time and added to his dressup clothes. We're sad that we missed it.
What gorgeous views. I don't think you would have seen that in Nebraska. Looks like the kids enjoyed it too. Sorry that Braden got sick. Lucky Darrell and Hazel!

Happy Birthday Braden! We wish we could see him climb walls and leap from buildings with all his special costumes.
