I decided to do something different with Brooke last week. And she decided that she wanted to go to "school". She put on her furry boots, got her little backpack on and started heading toward the door. I grabbed the sidewalk chalk and followed her out there. We colored on the sidewalk for a little while, and then the stupid Ice Cream Man just had to come blasting his music down the street. So I bought Brooke an Ice Cream and we just sat out on the grass. Brooke helped me color a rainbow that I drew, and she made circles of her own. It was a fun day!

You can kind of see the circle that she drew. She scribbled in it.

So adorable!

On the 4th of July, as our usual family tradition, we went to sugarhouse park for the fireworks. They have the best fireworks! Kenny had to work til 5 that day, so he just met us there. My mom and 2 of my sisters came with us. I bought tickets for the bounce houses and when Kenny got there he took Brooke down there to jump. I was up at the entrance selling my Flower clips and Baby Bracelets. Brooke had fun rolling down the hill, and running all around on the grass. Then When it started to get dark, I bought her a light up butterfly wand. She loves it! She thought the fireworks were awesome! She kept saying," Isn't that pretty mommy?" over and over again! It was so funny! And she would scream at the top of her lungs when they would boom! She was jumping up and down and clapping when they were all done! have heard that this was the last year they are doing it so I am pretty bummed. We will have to find a good place next year.
