Introducing...Us!

It's been a while since I've updated my blog, and even longer since I've given any sort of bio.  So here it is.  Now proudly introducing Ritchie, Melissa, and Cameron in a list of little-known, fun facts.

1.  Ritchie was born on Friday the 13th. 

2.  Melissa was a Brazilian Jeans model during a summer term at BYU.

3.  Cameron cries when we play Queen, but he loves the Beatles.

4.  Ritchie and Melissa both have never been dumped...of course, marriage was the only way to keep our perfect record!

5.  Melissa has never attended a public school.

6.  Ritchie's favorite place on earth is Knott's Berry Farm.

7.  Cameron is INSANELY ticklish on his bare skin.  We can hardly put on a new outfit without the little guy cracking up with the giggles.
 
8.  Ritchie and Melissa met on a blind date - not that I made a habit of blind dates, but we're living proof that sometimes they work.

9.  Melissa has only ever kissed return missionaries - seven in all.

10.  Ritchie is fluent in Tagalog and still uses his mission language all the time.

11.  Cameron can stand and walk when we hold onto his little fingers, but crawling?  Not at all interested.

12.  Ritchie and Melissa are both from seven-child families, and both families comprised of four boys and three girls.

13.  Melissa sang as a backup singer for Sissel, a famous Norwegian artist.

14.   In three months of life, Cameron has his own little Canadian passport and has already visited Washington, Georgia, Illinois, Tennessee, and North Carolina.
 
15.   Whether on the road, in the air, at home, shopping, or wherever we may be, all three of us love life best when it's spent together as our family.
