V-Day

We had a great Valentines Day! Brett surprised me with roses, I surprised him with balloons that had little notes attached to them and some cologne and Brooklyn got a valentines necklace and bracelet from us, a cute monkey from Grandpa Mark and a Baloon from Grandma and Grandpa Young. Without meening it to be, having a steak dinner (at home) has become our tradition. I didn't realize that this was the case until I got thinking about it and for the last three valentines instead of going out to a busy restaurant I made Brett's favorite dinner; steak, baked potato, salad, and usually a dessert, except for this valentines.
Here are some pictures of our V-Day gifts.



It's hard to see in this picture, but she's playing with her new necklace.

Meet The Jones'

I know that was a corny title for this blog, but I couldn't help myself. Brett's mom's parents were visiting from Idaho Falls. It's always so fun to visit with them, Gene is such a sweetheart and Sharon is always so interesting to talk too (one of the smartest people I know). We were glad that Brooklyn got to spend some time with them since she doesn't get to see them very often.
*Unfortunatley the other pictures I tried to download looked all creepy, so for now this is the only one that worked...it's a cute one though!

Brooklyn's Adventures


Adventure #1: Swimming at Surf N' Swim
Some funny facts about this trip: I had Brooklyn standing on the bench in the changing room while I was getting dressed, she went down to reach for something and fell off the bench and I cought her by her coat right before she hit the floor...whew! Then, when I took her out to Brett she was so excited to get in the water. When he put her in she was kicking and splashing then BAM...she face planted it (that happened a couple of times). She loved standing under the warm shower in the locker room after swimming in the chilly water.
Adventure #2: Playing with Playdough
