Brooke's 7th Birthday!

Brooke wanted to have a Spa Party for her birthday. Of course I couldn't just go simple it had to be perfect (thanks mom). I set up tables for a facial area and then we had a pedicure-manicure station and of course a hair and make up station. It was a lot of work, but a lot of fun too. Thanks to my friends and sister, without them I could have never pulled it off.

Brooke loved every minute of her party. She was so cute when she was getting her hair done. She wanted to lay on the couch and eat chocolate, while my friend Maya went to work on her hair. She definitely took advantage of her day at the Spa.

Brooke has been such a blessing. I don't know what I would do without another girl in the house. Thanks to her dad's genes she is very smart, confident, and beautiful. She is very compassionate and is so GREAT with her baby brother Maddox. She has saved me from having a nervous break down more than I'd like to admit. She is so motherly. Her motherly instincts at such a young age amaze me. She is very talented. She loves art like her grandma Reed and is very crafty like her grandma Hughes. She still loves to be around her mom and even wants me to play with her still. We love to color together, do crafts together and of course play fashion computer games together. I hope since she has her dad's personality we will also be best friends.

You are wonderful Brooke and dad and I are so proud of you! Happy 7th Birthday!
Love,
Mom and Dad

May 16th Anniversary,Tee Ball, Graduation, and Birthday Party!

A lot has happen since my last post. A husband in residency + 4 kids + Enrichment Counseler + potty training a 2yr old = Always late and Always behind! Since April, yes, that is the last time I have updated my blog. May 16th was our 11 year Anniversary....AWESOME 11 years I must add, Mason's last t-ball game, Mason's Preschool Graduation and Brookes 7th Birthday Party. It was a long, but great day. Needless to say the Anniversary was a simple "Happy Anniversary honey, can you get Mason ready for his T-ball game, while I start setting up for, Brooke's Party? Then it was run, run, run, work, work, work, the rest of the day.

Mason did AWESOME in his T-Ball game and we made it to his graduation on time which for all those that know me, it was a miracle. To his disappointment, I forgot his change of clothes, so he had to ware his t-ball uniform. Which turned out to be fine...thank goodness for graduation gowns. He sang two songs. He did so good and it was just too cute not to post the videos. He is such a good little boy and I miss him terribly now that he is in kindergarten. Once the graduation was over it was off to get the house ready for a Spa party.
