Brian #3, The Dragon That Breathes Like Fire

Brian is our first born. He and his dad played many hours of Halo. By the ripe age of 3 he was quite skilled. He is Brian III so his character on Halo and a 3 and he selected a picture of a fire breathing dragon. From then on if anyone would ask his name his response was, "Brian, number3, The Dragon that breathes like fire." We all loved to ask his name.


His favorite things to do on Halo were driving the Jeeps, Shooting grenade launchers, playing Zombies, and Swimming. Yes that's right, we would go jump off the bridge and play in the water. Everyone knows it is very important to get a swim in while playing Halo.

He also loved to dance. Right in the middle of a mission where people are killing each other he would see Uncle Jorge, or Zeke and say, "Let's Dance." While dancing he would happily sing, "Dance, Dance, Dance" and move his character around. Also integral to sophisticated play is saying, "Brains, brains, brains" as you wander around looking for victims during Zombies.

His video gaming skills are fairly unparalleled for his age, but what can I expect with a dad, four uncles, and all daddy's friends as mentors. Thanks Guys, now my son tries to hide a grenade launcher in his backpack! Who Knew?! Who said Violence breeds Violence?


Halo has been down sized and mostly outsourced now that he is almost 7 it is all about Rockband and Guitar Hero. He loves to battle. He is always sure to point out when my skills are inferior. Got to love the innocence. RubberBand is the group he created. Even Griffin gets into Rocking Out with the band. Lincoln participates by dancing like a wild man.
Brian really is the heart of the family. He cares for everyone. Top 3 great examples:
Still recommends a kiss from mom to his friends when they get injured at school
Just won Mr. Trustworthy, in the Character Counts Program
"Didn't even get Robbed" when he walked to school alone.
