Brielle's 6th Birthday!

Well, we have a 6-year-old in the house now!! Can't believe it... I know I'm a few weeks behind here, but Brielle had her 6th birthday on the 9th of this month. She was counting down the days as soon as Christmas was over! It was on a Saturday this year, which made it nice (Jared was actually on the night shift that week, so although they've been working Saturdays right now, he was still able to spend the day with us -- though possibly not completely awake at all times!) :) We had a fun family day. Brielle wanted to open her presents the very moment she woke up (which was at 5am, by the way!), and she got to pick her favorite meals for the day as always. (Sausage & waffles for breakfast, and belive it or not, peanut butter & honey sandwiches for lunch along with Doritos)... :) We took all the kids to a movie that afternoon, and amazingly enough, we all had a blast -- even with 4 kids, 6 years old and under... :) They loved it! And Brielle actually picked Golden Corral for her birthday dinner -- they just love that place with being able to walk around and pick whatever food they want! :) Brielle also picked a train cake this year from our fun little cake book, which she wanted purple! It was a fun day for her!

Taking Cupcakes to School

We made cupcakes for Brielle to take to school for her birthday, and this was definitely one of the things she was MOST excited about this year! (So fun to be in the spotlight in your class at school!) :)
