Halloween

Trick-or-treating with friends was a blast! Brooke was a beautiful dragonfly, Ryan made a handsome cowboy and Jack was one cute chicken! Special thanks to Grandma Mary and Grandpa Bob for making Brooke's costume and shipping it all the way here from Arizona.
Brooke learned she has a sweet tooth like her mom!

Brooke's 6th Birthday

Brooke has been wanting to have a birthday party with a dog theme for months so here we are atlast on her 6th birthday! Many of her good friends came to play games, eat cake and adopt puppies. We sure had a fun and memorable day!

Thinking carefully about her wish...

She blows out the candles!

Pumpkin Party

We went to Avery's Pumpkin Party and had a fabulous time decorating and carving pumpkins. Brooke and friends were able to go through a corn maze, smack a pinata, hula hoop, have a gunny sack race and so much more. We had terrific fall weather to boot!

Cheer

Brooke attended cheer camp this past summer and on Oct 1st she got to cheer with the high school cheer squad at a BLHS football game! It was definetly a thrill for her!

First Day of School

Brooke began Pre-First today with her friend Hannah! They just grow up so fast.

Bike Riding

There is nothing better than the feeling of riding a bike all by yourself for the first time! It all clicked for Brooke this August at the Schmidt Family Camping Trip. You should see her go!
