Happy Birthday Brynnley!!!

Brynnley just turned 6 years old on January 11th. I can not believe she is 6 already. I think I understand why people always say that your kids grow up too fast. These past 6 years have flown by, and I can't imagine life without my kids. Brynnley really is a joy to be around and I feel so lucky to be her mom. She is always happy and smiling and full of energy. She is really friendly and LOVES everyone. She also loves to learn and gets so excited to experience new things. She is confident, determined and really competitive. She is a bit of a perfectionist and wants to be the best at everything she does. I thought it would be fun to ask her a few questions to see what life is like at 6. Here are her answers...

What is your favorite food? tomato soup and cheesy bread
What is your favorite thing to do? go to dance class
What do you want to be when you grow up? a dance teacher or a school teacher
Where do you want to go on a vacation? Disneyland or Hawaii
What is one thing you want to learn to do? be the best dancer alive
What are you afraid of? snakes, bears and leopards
What makes you laugh? Brooklyn being silly
What is your favorite toy? Everything that I have
If you could meet someone famous, who would you meet? Destiny Hope Cyrus (aka Miley Cyrus)
HAPPY BIRTHDAY BRYNN!!! I LOVE YOU!!!!

I think she was more excited to wake up on her B-day than on Christmas.

We had a family party where she was spoiled by her grandparents and aunts and uncles.

Memphis, Daxton, Brynn, and Brayden get ready to blow out the candles. Brynnley's cousin Memphis turned 3 a few days before Brynn, so we had a little combined family B-day party.

We took a group of 12 kids to Color Me Mine for Brynnley's party. It was a little crazy, but they kids were really good and made some fantastic hippos, dogs, penguins and cars.

This is the entire silly Birthday group. It's amazing we didn't break anything while we were there. YEAH!!

Halle, Brynnley, and Brooklyn.

Zoey, Marlee, Brynn, and Abbie

Brynnley hard at work making her masterpiece. She decided that she wanted to go to Color Me Mine months ago and was so excited for her party.

Some of my favorite things. . .

Vacations! Relaxing on any warm, sunny beach is my ideal spot.
A clean house that stays clean longer than 2 minutes. Is that really possible?
Trying a new recipe that actually turns out, tastes good, and that the whole family will eat. MIRACLE!
The Changing of the seasons. The first spring picnic in the park. The first summer day at the pool. The first drive to look at the leaves in the fall. And the first winter snowball fight.
The sound of my girls laughing and playing together and the sound of "Mommy I love you."
Finding a really good book that I can't put down for days or nights. (Twilight series anyone?)
Date nights with my hot hubbie. Especially if he plans it and arranges the babysitter.
Girls nights out. Catching up with girlfriends or sisters is a treasured experience.
Sleeping in on the weekends while Brandon gets up with the kids. What a great guy?
Feeling energized (more like sore) after a tough workout.
Finding a new cute outfit for a great price. Can you say bargain shopper?
Freshly baked chocolate chip cookies and any other baked goods.
