You’d think that was me talking, right? After all, I didn’t plan to move out to the middle of nowhere where it’s normal to get your eggs from the backyard. Technically, it’s not the backyard – it’s the chicken coop.  But you know how I feel about technical. I was an English major, remember? Maybe I shouldn’t bring that up – maybe then you’ll be expecting some Jane Austen quality work. Forget it. This is a blog.  So back to the post…

This was Reece talking on our way home the other night. (Right before our car started smoking. Yikes. Dad, Reece and Logan fixed it. Manly.) When Reece lived in Utah, he liked country MUSIC. The rest of it – boots, hat, Carhart jacket, chicken coop, cows, guns, pigs, etc. – were not exactly on his radar. I mean, take a look at him. Does THAT picture look like a country boy waiting to happen? I think not.

(Reece is the boy in the picture. The only boy. Duh.)

But check out the afters… and before you ask, YES, it is the same boy. But I wouldn’t blame you if you didn’t recognize him. After all, I didn’t! No, I’m not kidding. When I came out to visit after the “transformation” a cowboy came up to me to hug me in the airport. I thought that was rather forward of him. And then I realized it was Reece. Ooops.



The Cowboy Casanova has arrived.

This is my brother Reece. The pictures need no explanation.* Cue Carrie Underwood now.

*Oh. You actually wanted an explanation? Reece is my 15 year old (soon to be 16!) little bro. “Little” is kind of a misnomer. (And no Reece, that is NOT a fat joke.) He is taller, stronger (just ask him), and infinitely more good looking than me. He is also a total poser. (Hello, did you see the pictures? Speaking of, you can see the pictures bigger if you click on them. I am not enough of a computer genius to be able to tell them how to appear when they are in a gallery. Which is why his head is chopped off in one of them. Sorry. If you click on it, you’ll find his head is still attached.)

Reece loves meat, country music, shooting things, staying up late, and me. He is sometimes a snot (he IS a teenager after all), but he also opens doors for me, tells me I’m beautiful, and doesn’t like boys who are mean to me. As an older sister, there’s not a lot more I could ask for! Reece, I loff you!

AlishaPS – We can’t leave Alisha out today – it’s her 22nd birthday! Holla. The whole family misses her tons and we are trying to find a way to trick her into staying out here for forever. Any handsome men care to help persuade her?

Oh – and that’s Reece’s arm, by the way. That way, he’s even in the PS part of the post. Remember, he’s a total poser. Even his arm. :)
