Our little Brooke is not so little anymore. She is almost 3! And acts like she is 5, lots of attitude and personality. She knows what she wants. She is talking so much now, full sentences and says things that are so big!! She started dance in January and has loved it, it ended a few weeks ago. At her recital she did some of the dance and then did her own thing, she was in her element!! She loved it and was so good at it! She was a dragon ( a very cute dragon) she was so proud of herself after it was so cute! Most of my family came to watch her, I love having such a supportive family!!

After her dance she got flowers from Mommy and Mimi and a toy, she felt so special!

We just got home from Lake Powell it was so much fun, Brooke loved it she is a mermaid she loves the   water! She learned to swim on her own and she was so proud of herself everytime it was fun to watch her be so brave!! It was so hot, 109, so we spent a lot of time in the water which is my favortie part of Lake Powell. Brooke surfed for the first time with Cappy, and rode in a tube all by herself. She is one brave girl!! It was fun Ty, Sar and Drake were able to come with the fam it was so much fun to have them around but hard to leave them!!

So her actual birthday is on August 2nd, we went to lunch at cafe rio (her favorite) then to build a bear and she got a little kitty she named it Meow, she loves it!! Then we went to Mimi's to play with her cousins and uncle Garrett! That night we ate at home and ate cupcakes! We had her party on August 4th. It was a Mermaid birthday party!! I was so excited I had been buying stuff for it for a while so I was so excited to see it all set up!! My whole family came it was so much fun, I made brown sugar chicken tacos, yummy! And ate ice cream cake from Cold Stone! I loved it my family came and just hung out for most of the night, I loved having them all over.

St. George & Memorial Day

For Memorial Day weekend this year we decided it would be fun to go on a vacation just our little family! Well we don't have much money these days so we decided to do something fairly close and cheap. So we decided on St. George, we left saturday morning really early hoping that Brooke would sleep, well she didn't she is crazy she doesn't sleep in the car. But she was such a good girl, reading her books and cuddling her baby!! We got there it was windy and a little cold but we were going to make the best of it. We went to breakfast at the Bear Paw, very yummy, then we went to this little water play area ( I don't know what to call it) It looked like a miniature canyon for kids, it was so awesome, Brooke loved it we were there everyday for a couple hours each time because she loved it so much. It was nice because the water was only an inch deep, and with Brooke that is the best she loves water but she thinks she is a mermaid so she is always trying to jump in alone or dive under it is kinda scary but cute!! We just relaxed a lot it was perfect!! We spent a few hours at the pool, walked around a lot, did a little shopping, ate lots of yummy food!! The best place we ate at was Black Bear Diner it was so yummy!! Our hotel room was pretty nice, we had a king bed it was amazing!!! WE could all fit, Brooke liked sleeping with us!! It was funny when we booked the trip we didn't know that Whitney & Jordan would be down there so we met up with them once at a really cool park! Brooke and Tripp were so excited to see each other it was so cute!! On the drive home she slept for a 1/2 hour I was so proud!! Then the day after we got home we went and visited my little brother's grave and my grandparents grave. Brooke liked putting the flowers on the grave it was cute to watch her. It was so emotional for me being there just thinking of loosing Brooke and how heart broken I would be. It has always been emotional to see his grave, but now that I have my own child just imagining the pain that my mom went through! I hope I never have to know the personal pain of loosing a child. Just watching her, and all of the cute things she does. I just sat there and cried. Well enough of me here are some pictures!!!
