Sweet B is 6!!!

Braelyn turned 6 years old on Wednesday!  She brings us so much joy every single day.  I wish I could remember to write down all the funny things she says but it happens so often it is hard to keep up!  She is so loving, always making Sissy, Daddy, and me cards telling us how much she loves us.  She is amazing at learning all her memory verses and is always talking about how Jesus died on the cross for our sins...maybe a future in ministry!!!  She has turned into quite the little fish since we got the pool.  She can swim the whole length underwater in one breath and is FAST!  We planned on having an Ariel swimming party today but unfortunately woke up to some pretty nasty weather.  She was amazing and took it all in stride and is ok waiting until the Brooks clan gets here for 4th of July for her pool party.  Instead we invited her little friend Caylee over for the day to help us celebrate with a playdate, pizza, and cake.

On the morning of her birthday, Emerson could not wait for her to open the gift she had gotten her.

Sweetest thing ever to see Em so excited about her birthday and seeing how much that meant to B was priceless!

We made a quick run for birthday doughnuts before I headed to work.

PIZZA PARTY!!!

Having fun with the new wardrobe for her AG doll Ellie from Jerry and Janet.

Time for presents!

Some things will never change...she always takes her time reading every card!

Did you make a wish??

Her one request was "the Oreo cake from HEB"!  That's easy!

You would never know the Ariel pool party that she has been anxiously awaiting got rained out...so happy!

We love you so much sweet girl!

What kind of party would it be without party favors??!!

Later in the afternoon, the rain cleared off and the 4 of us were able to have some fun in the pool.

Happy Father's Day Daddy!

We came home from the wedding on Father's Day so the girls put together a little party to celebrate their amazing Dad!  It was so cute!

Of course he had to have a crown to wear to the party!

Hard to see, but they spelled out Daddy with popsicle sticks on the blanket!

Em made him a poster with pictures of the 2 of them on it.

Braelyn filled a bucket with goodies, made him a book, and then put on a puppet show.

Congrats Nate and Taylor!

So very hard to believe but Nate got married this weekend!  Everybody stayed the weekend in Natchitoches and the wedding was in a little town not too far from there in the coolest place.  The wedding itself was under this beautiful big oak tree and then the reception was in an old schoolhouse.  Everything was decorated so pretty, Taylor looked beautiful, and the girls were over the moon to be flower girls.  We wish them many amazing years together!

The girls got to spend the morning with Taylor and the bridesmaids while Bailey fixed their hair.  They were in heaven!

Almost time!

Taylor, with her flower girls-Bella, B, and Em

These 2 adore Bailey!

Last minute hair touch up

Jerry and Janet with the girls right before it was time to head down the aisle.

Thanks Gransan for letting the girls stay in your room all weekend so we could celebrate our 15th anniversary with dinner in Natchitoches!
