| My baby is growing up! |
Since we have no family in the area, and more than the average number of kids, we try to combine big events, so our family doesn't feel obligated to travel down here too often. Fortunately, 3 out of 5 of our kids' birthdays are/will be in June, so we can combine those family birthday parties. :)

| Opening presents is serious business! |
Alyssa's dance recital happened to fall on the same weekend as Brooke's birthday. With life and children's sports, we just did something small for Brooke's 2nd birthday. We invited the grandparents down for the weekend and my parents were able to make it. With 3 older siblings buying her gifts, Brooke still had more than her fair share of presents to open. We celebrated that on Saturday night. (Her actual birthday is today.) Brooke is at a really cute age, so her attempting to blow out the candles was amusing. Here's the video for all you out of towners. One of my favorite parts is actually Dillon stealing a cupcake as soon as it was over. Boys! :)
Then on Sunday evening was Alyssa's recital. Her age group (5-7 year-olds) was the youngest to perform. They were really cute, and some of the older kids' dances were really good. We were all very proud of her, and she seemed to really enjoy performing--she has always been a little ham!
