Can you believe our baby is "9" years old?
Brooke is absolutely her own person. Her personality continues to amaze us. She has a very sharp sense of humor but does not use against people.
You know when you can joke with her, but she will let you know when you can't.
She has a very kind soul and does not like to see anyone being bullied or made fun of.
She and her inseparable friends. Grace, Gracie and Hope. A little ornery action from her Aunt Christy in the background.
Anxious for summer, though the weather wasn't quite cooperating they went to the park and found a puddle of water to play in anyway.
Oh brrrr!
Trying out her new birthday bike.
This girl would probably ride it to school if we would let her.
She really loves bike riding.
The last second butterfly cake that she waited until 3 hours before
the party to request. Thank goodness Aunt Christy showed up in
time to help me decorate it.
Thanks Aunt Christy!
Everyone enjoying Brooke's "No dishes meal".
She has requested this for the last several years.
Cassidy sent Brooke on a treasure hunt. The first present had a note which sent her hunting through the house for another note which then in turn led her to several more notes. The 'goose chase' ended with her in her bedroom and the last note said just press play. That's when she discovered the Taylor Swift CD she has been wanting that Cassidy gave her. She had a great time with this adventure.
Way to go Sis!
Thank you to everyone who showed up to help Brooke celebrate her 9th Birthday.
