My Beautiful Brooklyn

Can it really be that my sweet baby is already two?
Brooklyn has been growing up so fast. She is talking (and talking and talking) all the time. We celebrated her birthday on Monday with G & G Smith, Angie, Maren, Andy, Jamie and Livi. She loves her new trike, her baby cradle, and the dress up clothes. It is so funny to see her walking around in little princess heels.


Brooklyn, I never thought I would get a little girl. You are so sweet and let me do your hair in all different kinds of ways (as long as you can watch Dora while I'm doing it) You are all girl, and love pretties and babies, and all that girlie stuff. But, you are a tough little one that loves to wrestle and scream and run. You have the sweetest little personality. When you get sad or mad, you stick out your lower lip and glare. It is so funny. Lots of times, we'll both start laughing. You love eating cereal and chips and you don't like juice. You love your "mimi" (binky) and you aren't too happy about me trying to wean you from it. You can make a giant mess in less than 60 seconds. You love to read books and always want some in your bed with you. You are one sweet girl and I love you so!

Mini-Marathon

Brayden's school does a "mini-marathon" each year.  During recess, some of the kids choose to run.  For each lap they do, they earn a punch on their cards.  Brayden ran 27.2 miles!!!!  He earned a cool medal and certificate. We were so proud of him. I forgot how long his hair was!  He decided last spring that he wanted to grow it out until school let out.

You can take the girl out of the country, but....

 ....you can't take the country out of the girl. My parents' have pretty much the coolest place to visit...well, besides the beach or Disneyland... so we always have fun going back home to the farm.  Grandma Marie Bramwell- 89 years old!  Double Rainbow! Sunset over the Snake River  The only reason he is wearing a helmet is because he had to for his scouting belt loop.  We had to fudge a little bit- it's his bike helmet.  Billy has learned a thing or two from me :)

Brayden got to celebrate his birthday at the happiest place on earth...Chuck E. Cheese.  Yes, he really wanted a Chuck E. Cheese birthday party.  Not the kind where you show up and mom orders pizza and brings your presents in, but an actual Chuck E. Cheese Birthday Party.  You know, the one where they set the table for you and you get an awesome blow up crown and Chuck E. comes out an entertains you.  I blame all the children that previously have had birthday parties there when we've shown up. Brayden did design his birthday cake.  Apparently he wasn't impressed with the giant cupcake one I made last time that tipped over.  I like doing it this way much better- so much easier.   He got to invite a few friends.  We missed a few that were sick or out of town.  Bummer.  I guess that's what happens when you have a December birthday.  The boys that did come were so much fun and full of all that boy humor- loud and silly.   We opene...
