Brytlee's Birthday!!!


My Little Brytlee has turned 8!  I am still in denial and don't want to believe that my kids are growing up… because it is going way to fast!  Brytlee has been so excited about her birthday and has been talking about it for the past month.  She is also very excited to be baptized.  

She loves the beanie boo animals and that is all she asked for.  She really wanted the penguin that she is holding below.  She told be almost everyday for the past month how she just could stop thinking about the cute little penguin.  



All the kids were so excited to see her open all her presents and wanted to join in.


We woke up that mooring and Brytlee wanted to have crepes for breakfast and then she wanted to make these cookies that she had bought at the store.  It was a sugar cookie that had pink and white colors and then you could make a face or lady bug or whatever you wanted.  The kids had fun doing that and then we started on the birthday cake.  Grandma Harris came around noon to get Brytlee for a birthday date and they went to Logan and ate lunch and went shopping.  Brytlee was so excited she couldn't stop smiling.   

After Brytlee's date with Grandma we all met at the Jump Zone with all of Ryan's family and Annette, Joslyn and Cache.  The kids got to jump for a hour and a half.  Max has been so afraid of the trampoline up until now and he really wanted to get all the balls that were on the tramps that he overcame his fear form a little while to go and get a few. 


Brytlee asked for a Hello Kitty cake this year.  








We all sang happy birthday and blew out candles and then headed over to Golden Coral her favorite place to eat!





She was so funny when we got there, she came up to me and said, "don't tell them it is my birthday!"  then a few minutes later, "did you tell them it was my birthday?"  when I told her no, she was so sad and said, "why not?"  hmmmm because you told me not to?  But we did tell them and she loved it when they gave her cake and sang to her.  


Adison and Josy had tons of fun playing together.  It was so nice to have Annette come and hang out with us for the weekend.  We tried to color her hair while she was here and it didn't turn out at all.  We tried three different times and they just got worse and worse.  The first time it went really really blonde, and then I tried to put in some low light and they went really really dark…. then we just went and bought her normal color for a all over color and it went really dark and a little orange.  I told her that she had to be pregnant or something because I couldn't figure out why the colors were not going the way they should.  She said she even went home and tried to do a highlight and it still didn't turn out…… I felt really bad.  

After the party was over Brytlee was so excited to go to Grandma and Grandpa's house and have a sleepover.  She was pretty spoiled and had a great day.  She is such a sweet girl and I love her so much.  I am so thankful for her sweet sprit and awesome personality in our family.  I am so excited for her baptism and can not wait for the next party.  I am so sad that my parents can not be here.  I am pretty sure this will be the first one they have ever missed.  We talked about facetimeing them so they could see it, but I am not sure if they will let us.  But they are where they need to be and it is alright.  I am excited that my Grandpa Butch is going to be one of the witnesses for the baptism, and that hey will be here.  So thankful for the gospel and so thankful for my amazing family!  (Happy birthday Brytlee!!!!  I love you to the moon and back!! )
