Brynlee Claire Turns 2!!

This weekend was fantastic!!  There was so much going on, I don't know where to begin. :)  We spent the weekend in Rogers, and Kyndall and I drove up on Thursday evening.  We wanted to spend some time going to the craft fairs with Mom on Friday, so off we went.  I don't know if you all have ever heard of the group "Straight No Chaser," but they are absolutely amazing!!  It's a group of 10 guys singing accapella.  If you know anything about my family, it's that we LOVE to sing.  We especially love anything with four-part harmony.  Well, this fabulous group was at the Walton Arts Center on Thursday night, so our entire family (minus Matt, Brynlee and Emma) went to see them.  We had a blast!!!  Below are a couple of snapshots...



Landon and Brandi

They sang songs by Coldplay, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Lauryn Hill, and so many other artists. 

Dad, Mom and Kyndall

Friday morning, Mom, Kyndall and I started the day with breakfast at Panera.  Afterwards, Kyndall went and picked up her brand new car (2011 Equinox...VERY nice) and then we went to the craft fairs for a little while.  We enjoyed lunch at the Crumpet Tea Room and then Brandi and the girls met us for some more crafting. 

Emma was pretty excited :)

The girls were so good. We had a lot of fun!

Friday night, my better half drove in for the weekend.  Yes, I know it was less than 24 hours, but I was so ready to see him!!  We grabbed pizzas and headed back to the farm for a quiet night. Miss Brynlee got to stay with us and we had quite the slumber party!

She and I sang songs on the way home

Played with sidewalk chalk

I think this picture is beautiful! She is so sweet sitting on the steps of the porch.


Saturday morning it was BIRTHDAY TIME!!  We got a couple of pictures of BC before heading to her party. 

Mimi and Brynlee

Uncle Matt with BC (You can't see her little dress but it was so cute. It had a big 2 on it with her name written across it.)

I love this little munchkin!

It was a Barney themed party...with big Barney footsteps leading to the door

Chocolate/Peanut butter Barney cake

Emma was having fun too (her cheeks are my favorite)

Beautiful family of four

Loving some cake

Lindsey and Me

Linz and Emma

Kayla drove in from Tulsa and Jolene was there with her crew too.

And of course this is where ALL the men were, watching the HOGS game

Couldn't you just eat her up?

The Honea's got BC a birthday tutu which she loved!

Me and Kayla Beth

The birthday party was a BIG HIT and Brandi and Landon did a great job of putting it on.  Brynlee was surrounded by so many people who love her.  Once again, these are the days that I thank God for.  Family and friends are priceless in a world where we are so busy and are pulled in so many directions.  It's refreshing to step outside of the world of work, computers, school, and every day activities and just enjoy making memories on special days like this one.

Matt and I took a couple of pictures at Mom and Dad's just because...



Hope your week is not as crazy as mine is going to be!
