Brinley's 3rd Birthday

Whew, things have finally calmed down enough for me to blog about Brinley's birthday weekend! On Thursday evening, Rachel and Meredith flew down from Arkansas to visit with us for the weekend. The girls enjoyed playing together and Brinley had fun teaching Meredith all about dressing up with shoes and earrings....sorry Rachel :) We had a wonderful visit and can't wait to see them again!

Friday, we took them to the pool for some swimming and then to Kemah for some yummy seafood.
I also spent every free minute that day making Brinley's birthday cake!


Saturday morning, with the weather actually cooperating (no rain and not too hot), we had Brinley's ice cream themed birthday party at our house. We had cake, ice cream bar and big bounce house with slide. Brinley had a blast playing with all her friends and family! All the kiddos were dripping in sweat by cake time. She has been waiting for everyone to sing happy birthday to her for months, so she sat, listened and then blew out her candles! After cake/ice cream, Brinley opened her presents to receive tons of new dresses, shoes, purses, and crowns for dress up! Since Brinley practically lives in dress up clothes when we are home, she was really excited to have new options. She also got a make up vanity from my parents and kid touch digital camera from Jason's parents. She loves taking pictures and has taken over 100 with her new camera! Poor Clayton will be blind due to the flashes! We now also have a photo catalog of every toy she owns :)

Here are some pictures from her big party day!





On Sunday, we went to the circus, but that is another post in itself! Be on the lookout!
