Simply the traditional Sunday over right here! (Brooke was very completely satisfied concerning the solar being in her eyes)
Brooke was fairly happy with her artwork work and writing that she did throughout church… PS Brooke calls Andrew about ten totally different names and we simply let her name him no matter she feels snug with. More often than not she calls him Andrew, shu-shu is considered one of her favorites and pa occurs randomly too. We would like her to resolve on what she calls him as a result of at this age she doesn’t totally perceive all the pieces and I simply need her to be as snug as potential.
They’re all the time taking part in some form of sport collectively… Andrew is a giant child when the little children are round.
One among my favourite treats are the large pink sugar cookies from SWIG and I attempted to recreate them at house with this recipe. The frosting didn’t end up wonderful however the truly cookie was fairly dang shut.
After our cookie baking I fell asleep as a result of I really feel like Sunday naps are nearly necessary and woke as much as this scene.
She went from taking part in with a canine to taking part in with a cat. Her definition of heaven.
Andrew’s household had a get collectively so we received to go and eat dinner with everybody! They’re wonderful folks.
Then we went over to my sister’s home to rejoice my nephew’s bday!!! He was actually enthusiastic about his egg and bacon socks from my mother.
Brooke was completely satisfied to be reunited with Curly.
She and I had an extended dialog on the rug speaking about all the pieces from PE, to her greatest buddies and to her artwork trainer solely giving her FIFTY seconds to complete a venture.
My nephew didn’t desire a cake for his bday… he needed an Oreo shake. He’s already smart past his years.

One thing enjoyable—> My sister will probably be running a blog over right here one or two occasions a month. I’m excited so that you can get to know her a bit of bit higher! However first, I needed to share a couple of random sister information earlier than she blogs right here.
1. We shared a room from the time I used to be born till she was 16. Speak about bonding.
2. When she moved away, she lived all around the nation for a couple of years. This was earlier than she had a cellular phone + she didn’t have a landline. She would put her little boy (she solely had one on the time) within the jogging stroller and run a couple of miles to the closest pay cellphone and ensure she was one of many very first folks to name me on my birthday.
3. One summer season when she was residing in Wyoming I stayed along with her for a couple of weeks. We ran in every single place we went along with her jogging stroller—> to the grocery retailer which was a couple of miles away, to Blockbuster, to the rec middle, to take a step aerobics class and to purchase Skittles on the gasoline station. I might put the Skittles within the freezer as a result of I used to be actually into frozen Skittles for awhile.
3. As soon as after I was in highschool my boyfriend and I broke up proper earlier than a college dance. My sister picked me up for the weekend of the dance and drove me right down to Las Vegas for a weekend of procuring and consuming scrumptious meals collectively.
4. When my mother was pregnant with me my sister already had three brothers and prayed each night time that I might be a woman. She lucked out.
5. When she first moved away to go to school (aka 20 minutes away) it was so onerous on me. I known as her dorm room cellphone obsessively and left messages consistently. My dad and mom determined to purchase me a bit of white poodle to assist hold me firm as a result of I missed her a lot. I named my canine’s center title after her.
6. Trace of lime chips, bin sweet on the grocery retailer, Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups and Dealer Joe’s gummy Mango! Mango! will all the time remind me of her and our weekend film marathons again within the day.
7. Alias (the present with Jennifer Gardner), Felicity and Buffy the Vampire Slayer will even all the time remind me of her. We have been fully hooked on watching these reveals collectively.
8. She will get me laughing ridiculously onerous. I don’t suppose our humor is humorous to anybody else however we positive get one another laughing onerous.
9. She is the one which received me operating within the very first place. I believe my favourite operating reminiscence along with her was up within the canyon on a operating path. Once I informed her that I is perhaps transferring out of state within the subsequent couple of months, she stopped lifeless in her tracks and simply laid down on the bottom along with her eyes closed. I used to be laughing so onerous on the complete scene and he or she mentioned she couldn’t transfer as a result of her coronary heart was hurting so unhealthy. PS She is again operating once more!!! At one level her physician informed her that she would by no means be capable of run once more as a result of her again was so unhealthy however after surgical procedure and plenty of restoration she is fortunately operating (along with her physician’s approval in fact) pain-free once more!
10. She has helped me a ridiculous quantity to get me by means of the hardest occasions in life. She loves my kiddos (goodness she handled Knox like he was her very personal particular buddy for the reason that first time she met him) like loopy. You must see her as a mother to these 5 children of hers. They completely adore her and he or she loves them fully.
