Our favorite "pep-bander" has made it into the Prescott Journal three times lately...we are so proud...these are all clips from the newspaper so please pardon the poor quality...

How to Spend a Saturday Night

This is how to spend a Saturday night:


  • a best friend to sleep over

  • pizza for dinner

  • lots of X-Box live

  • cozy place to rest (hmmm) does anyone see the available sofa behind Sam, or is it just me? Gotta love imagination and creativeness!



Brother From Another Mother



This is Trevor Clinton Mercord...Jacob's brother from another mother. Trevor is the sixth member of our family, our fourth son. How do we know that Trevor belongs at our home? Let me share the ways he is sooo much like the other three...
  1. he leaves his bed unmade

  2. he drinks my Dr.Pepper w/o asking

  3. he leaves the empty Dr.Pepper can on the coffee table

  4. he's sassy

  5. I find his dirty socks lying around

Trevor and Jacob have been friends for about 12 years now and we hope for many years to come...we love you Trevor Clinton!
