Ok, so it's been 2 years since we had our family pictures taken! We missed the prime oppertunity to take them when Brielle was little. WE had a friend takethese and I think she did a great job. Now I just need to pick out the best and have her FIX (photoshop) ME!! My bronzer is too orange, I hate my hair, and I wish I had changed into the black loafers instead of wearing those black sandles! UGH! Everyone else looks great. We even got some great ones of Bri.

You know the drill. Vote for your favorite, these are headed to a Christmas card near you!

Happy Birthday Baby vampire!

Who's teaset is this anyway?

Yum, pink cake!

I'll pose as long as I have my pink balloon!

Vampires like bananas? Who knew?

Look, I'm walking!

Utah State Capitol building

Well, believe it or not, our little girl turned one on September 1st! And as you can only imagine, I made sure she had the right amount of pink decor to go around. Decked out in her pink tutu and ready to party, Brielle was fun to watch as she opened her gifts. I love that Kevin made sure she knew how to use her new teaset. She wasn't too fond of eating her cake, but did lick the frostine off.

Brielle now has her first 4 teeth, but surprisingly not the 4 you would be expecting! Her bottom 2 are in and as of last month her top "I" teeth have come in, making her look very much like a vampire! It's a little weird, but I have seen it before and a friend said her teeth came in that way too. Then Mark says to her, "And you turned out OK" Good one Mark!

Brielle has also started walking about 2 weeks ago. She is taking more and more steps everyday. She is also climbing on everything! It is crazy tring to keep her out of things. Her favorite thing right now is to climb on the dining room table! Help! I forgot how busy toddlers are!

So, my boys enjoyed their last weekend of summer going to the State capitol building for a tour. Then on to sweet tomatoes for lunch, and a new school clothes shopping event! So tired! But a great day.
