Happy 2011!!!

We had such a good week together just the 3 of us topping it all off ringing in the new year.  Emerson got to do fireworks for the first time and loved every minute of it.  She had sparklers and the little deals that you just throw on the ground and they pop.  For our big finale we had a couple that shot little colored balls pretty high in the air.  Note that none of them were the loud fireworks!  2010 was a great year for the Brooks and we are looking forward to making many, many wonderful new memories in 2011!

 I had never seen a sparkler this big-they were great!

I finally let Em wear her part of our Mommy and me locket that Daddy got us last Valentine's Day and she was so proud of it!
