Party Time

So Brooklyn turned five on Friday and that called for a Party! After Kara stressed for several days as to what to do she opted for a doggie party at her house. We all met at Josh and Kara's and had a wonderful dinner of tortilla soup and special hot dogs that Josh got on his trip to Costco. The kids played a couple of games and the adults just visited and took it easy.... everyone had a great time and Brookie thought it was the best....it really is amazing how little it takes for kids to be happy.....we should all remember that!

Of course Grannybird made it to the Party.....it just wouldn't be a party without her!

Brooklyn got a dozen roses from her Dad. There is no doubt that little girl has her father right where she wants him....you go girl! When she was a baby Josh use to say that he could never love another child as much as he loves Brooklyn. He said, "She came into my life first and stole my heart!" I know his perspective has changed with the addition of his sons but I know Brooklyn will always have a special place in that great big heart of his.

Brooklyn was really excited to get her Polly Pocket Mall from her cousins in Tucson. Savannah wrote Brookie the cutest card to go with the present.....I'm just impressed that Amy got the present mailed....it was really big.....and it arrived in time. (She did not get that characteristic from her mother)
Brittany took Brookie shopping at Nordstroms and let her pick out her own dress. I was really proud of Brittany because she bought the dress Brookie liked even though it wasn't her favorite. I think it is darling and doesn't Brooklyn look like the cutest model!
Happy Birthday Brooklyn.....I can't believe you're five....We love you and think you are amazing!
