Diamonds Are A Girls Best Friend!

I have been asking Bryce to get Brooklynn's ears pierced since she was a baby and he never would budge....until now! He finally said I could do and i jumped on it! I asked Brooklynn if she wanted pretty princess earings and she said "no i good-i have some" (the little clip on plastic hearts that came with her dress ups). I couldn't talk her into getting some real ones and I was afraid if I didn't do it that day Bryce would change his mind. She what did I do..... I bribed with a balloon! It works every time :) So we headed to the mall and got her some pretty little diamonds!
Waiting.... she was getting a little nervous, and she HATES anything touching her ears so I knew there would be a freak out. Luckily it only lasted a second and she was done screaming.
She absolutely loves them now and wouldn't stop looking in the mirrors!
Her lovely bribe!
And Madi's are next.....

Preschool!

My little girl is growing up so fast and I can't decide whether I am happy or sad...(maybe a little of both). She just started Preschool this week and she was so excited. She's going to the Bravo Arts Academy just down the street from us. They center their learning around art and music which Brooklynn loves both so we thought it would be prefect for her. She couldn't wait to go and kept making sure I was going to stay home and let her go all by herself, she felt like such a big girl.
Showing off her bag she painted

I had to snap a couple quick pictures of her in her classroom :)
We were so excited her and Jaxon ended up in the same class together :)

Camping

Lat weekend we went up to Crystal Hot Springs for our ward camp out. It was a lot of fun just hanging out with friends and enjoying the great outdoors :) Unfortunately we had a huge wind storm as we were going to bed and decided to pack up and head home at 1 in the morning since there was no way we were going to sleep through that!
Hanging out
Rachael, Devyn, Brooklynn, and Me
Jaxon, Madi, Devyn, Brooklynn and Abby
The Gang Just Chillin
Brooklynn (she stole my drink and decided to take a break from her friends and drink it)
Brooklynn absolutely loves playing with her friends! They had so much fun playing chase and running around together.
Brooklynn and Jaxon were so cute together! I could just sit and watch them play all day long. They get so giggly when they're together :)


Not quite sure what this is?? Maybe teaching Brookylnn to pick her nose :)
One day they will get married!

Youth Conference

I was able to go to Youth Conference with Bryce this year and it was so much fun! They went up to Bear Lake and enjoyed the sun and water. It was great to get away and spend some time together (and with a bunch of kids ;) and have a great time.
Hanging Out At The Beach
We got up the last day at 5:30 and watched the sunrise
so happy to be up so early :)
