Although as another has pointed out I'm sure in the not too distant future he may not always admit to that :-) Jason you have such an amazing talent for telling these stories and you captivate their imaginations and hearts every time! They love to tell their friends about the stories and there have been so many times that we are driving somewhere and Tanner will look out the window and say something like, "look mom that looks like Mashed Potato Mountain!" It's pricless and I know he treasures it more than you will ever know. I think the tradition will continue for years to come as it has already started with Brayden and in a couple years I'm sure Kyle will join in on the bed for the stories as well. We look forward to many more stories and I LOVE the picture!
