BRIANNA STARTS 3RD GRADE

Brianna started school last week. Let's just say she wasn't too happy about it at all. As you can tell from the pictures. She is excited to have her best friend, Kyleah, not only in her class but also sitting at her table. I just don't know if that's enough to make her want to go to school. Let's hope this year is a success!

PICTURES OF BRIANNA ON HER BIRTHDAY

MOTHERS DAY AND BRIANNA'S BIRTHDAY

This year, Brianna's birthday actually fell on Mother's Day. To celebrate both days Mom, Dad, Robbie and Macy came over for dinner and cake. For Brianna's birthday, we gave her a basketball goal. She was so excited to make 5 shots in a row. I really just can't believe that our little girl is 8 years old. The time has gone by so quickly. When I dropped her off at school yesterday, she looked like a different child walking into school. It made me so sad. I guess it's true what they say, "They grow up before you know it!"

A POKEMON BIRTHDAY PARTY FOR BRIANNA

Brianna celebrated her 8th birthday with a party at the YMCA.

BRIANNA SALES GIRL SCOUT COOKIES

Brianna sold 330 boxes of Girl Scout cookies and is now selling at the cookie booths. Thanks to everyone that supporting Brianna and Girl Scouts!

SCOOTIN' ON A SUNDAY

Brianna has been asking for a scooter the past couple of weeks. Since the weather this weekend has been so nice, I took her today to get one. She has been having fun all day, but I have a feeling she will have even more fun once she learns to ride it!

BRIANNA GETS HER YELLOW BELT IN KARATE

For the last 4 months, Brianna has been taking TangSooDo Karate at Scota Karate Academy. She has really worked hard and Tuesday night, she was awarded her yellow belt. Master Scota invited Brian to come up to assist with removing Brianna's white belt so he could then put on the yellow belt. We are very proud of our little "Karate Kid"!

THE THINGS BRIANNA SAYS

The other night we were talking about something and Brianna said, "Well, MyMy is smarter than you." Well, night before last we had this conversation:

Me: "I can't believe you think your MyMy is smarter than me! Brianna, you are smarter than MyMy."

Brianna: "Well, as a matter of fact, I'm smarter than both of you!"

ONE LAST DAY OF FUN BEFORE SCHOOL STARTS BACK

Since school was out all last week due to snow and it was off again today due to the MLK holiday, I thought it would be fun for Brianna to get out of the house. We invited her friend Karley and her brother to ChuckeCheese with us. The kids had fun playing games and racking up on tickets. Afterward, Karley came back home with us. They had fun playing Twister, Guess Who and playing games on the Wii.

EVEN BONNIE HAD FUN PLAYING IN THE WHITE STUFF
