Weekend at Brookies!!

So we had a very fun filled weekend. Just to warn you this is going to be long with lots of pics!

We were lucky to have our niece and nephew stay with us Friday night. This is Kambree at dinner. Sorry for the bad restaurant lighting. She is hilarious. I just love her to pieces!

Eric and Kaden at dinner.

This weekend was partly for Kaden's 8th birthday. So we asked him what he wanted to do and since Eric was a party pooper on the corn maze, the next best thing is getting a new xbox game to play!

Yeah, I totally know this is blurry. The kid is INSANE when he is watching someone play. He just jumps up and down and waves his arms. He cannot even control it. It is pretty funny. All the while he is telling Eric how to play and here is am exact quote " Come on! You can play Call of Duty 4 but you can't even play Spiderman?!"

It is pretty intense when it is his turn to play. If that ottoman would not have been in his way he would have been right up under the tv.

Kambree LOVES to color and I luckily had some books and crayons. She was so cute. She would pick my color for me and then point where she wanted me to color. Every couple of minutes it would be time to switch. We had a great time!

She is like the energizer bunny. I don't even know how many laps she made.

I don't know why, but I was nervous on how I was going to get her to bed. I went in and got ready for bed and when I came back out this is what found. Obviously all that running did her in.

This is the nifty bed I made her in our room. I laid her down all nice and normal like and she rearranged herslf to this. She pretty much stayed this way all night. She slept from 11 to almost 9!! I was impressed. (And grateful!)


Here she is all ready for the day. She LOVED trying on all my necklaces.
I love these kids. We will or sure have to do it again!


Then on Saturday night Jevan and Michelle and Brady and Jenna came over. Man we ate a lot of junk! Lets see, cookies, ice cream, peaches, popcorn, starbursts and of course caramel apples! Apparently Jevan and Brady forgot to inform the rest of us that we were supposed to make goofy faces........


Attractive isn't it?! We got about half way through our apples and realized that if we cut it off it would save our teeth a lot of heartache. They were oh so yummy! Thanks for providing the $8 apples Brady and Jenna! :)

We had a great time and just hanging out and playing games until 2 am! For anyone that knows me very well, that is basically pulling an all nighter. ha ha Not really but close. We had a blast and are lucky to have such great friends!

What a great weekend we had here at Brookies. I pretty much didn't leave the house but I had no desire to since it basically snowed the whole time. Brrr!
