One year old!!

Famous B-day hat from my mom. She wouldn't wear it-had to work fast to take a picture

Photo shoot by mom-I need tips and probably a faster/nicer camera!
Bridget and I in coordinating outfits. She said she almost wore my sweater! Twinners!

Boys bouncing and playing football


Girls playing in the sand. I guess there was alot of dust flying around in this picture!

Brinklee with her BFF-Loree



Singing Happy B-day

FAVORITE picture of the night-she's telling you she's one!! Check out her little finger-oh she is so cute

My friend Erica made the cupcake cake. She does such a GREAT job!



Eating the cherry on top!




She's going for it


Oh she loved her cake!









Katie felt something in her hair-a sucker is what she found. She must be a mom!

A year ago today the sweetest most perfect baby entered our lives....Brinklee Kate. She is such a JOY! I know Heavenly Father knew our family needed her. She has been a true blessing. She is ADORED by all and we are so HAPPY she chose us. I've been saying all year long that I was going to cry when she turned one. I haven't shed a tear yet but I am sad she is getting big. She is our "Happy Maker". She just goes with the flow and we are just thankful she is all ours. Things I always want to remember about Brinklee at this age:

1. She does the CUTEST wave I've ever seen. Low with her hand up like she's giving high five and only her little wrist moves back and forth
2. If you ask her how old she is ,she puts up her finger for #1!!
3. Gets the giggles when she knows you are chasing her
4. Sings to herself to fall asleep
5. When shes tired she rubs her nose with her blanket to relax
6.Sleeps with her diaper bum up in the air
7. Has a fascination with the toilet
8. Perfers her binky upside down
9. Could play in the rocks for hours
10. Gets her feelings hurt if you take something away

Brinklee Girl, Happy Birthday ....We LOVE you!
