Our little girl turned 2 on April 21st (we are still trying to figure out how 2 years have flown by so fast!), and a few days later on Easter Weekend, we threw her a birthday BBQ at our house with our good friends and family! I spent a good week making a bazillion pink tissue flowers to hang all over the house for the occasion, in fact they overtook the place!! Brooke loved them though and would point and say "MY FLOWERS!!" every morning! It was such a fun night, I only wish Brian could have been there to see his little girl celebrate her big day (we are counting down the days we get to go be with him in Japan!!). The kids had so much fun, they had a pinata, an easter egg hunt in the yard, they played and played and ate entirely way too much sugar!! It was fun watching them all run around!! Thank you everyone for making Brooke's 2nd birthday so special!!
Check out all that pink!
Just some of the pink flowers!

The birthday girl!! Can't believe she is 2 already!

She was a big fan of her outfit!

YAY Brooke's 2!!
Getting ready for cake...
Brooke was just in awe of her birthday cake (too bad she doesn't actually like the stuff!)
Getting some help blowing out the candles!

Brooke is NOT a dessert fan (I know, who doesn't like dessert right?! well this one doesn't!!) I was actually quite surprised when she went for the cupcake...

...seconds into the first bite she literally gagged, and spit it out. You would have thought she was choking. Who does she get this from?!!

Saying no to the cupcake!

She'd rather have a ribeye.


Enjoying her party with Grandma & Pop-Pop!

With my soon to be 4 year old!! Seriously, our kids are growing up too fast!!!

Poor Brooke had a little too many helpers when it came time to opening her presents...all she wanted was to open them herself, but that wasn't going to happen if her big brother had anything to do with it!! He INSISTED on opening them all with her/for her!!!
Practicing her clean and jerks with her presents! Actually, she is trying to move it to keep the other kids away from her new awesome gifts! She got quite possessive real fast!
Hiding in the corner trying to open the rest by herself!
Finally Austin got distracted from present opening and took to playing cars with Tristan! Brooke was very relieved :)
This let Brooke concentrate on helping put her new wheels together!

One of her favorite gifts of the night! Thanks Putz family!! :)
Dance party in the family rom!
Go Austin!


Another one of Brooke's favorite gifts...a new suitcase for her big trip to Japan coming up!! Thanks Grandma & Pop-Pop!

Running crazy in the long hallway burning off all the sugar from the night!

HAPPY 2nd BIRTHDAY BROOKE-BROOKE!!!
WE LOVE YOU!!!
