Brooke Turns One!

Our sweet girl turned one this year. She is walking, and started talking (she says ball, baby, mom, dad, hi, bye-bye, and yum), and has established her own little bit of sass. Still, she's a dainty lady, and so sweet and curious... it's hard to believe that our little love is already one! Hardly seems possible.

We celebrated her big day three times (because you can't celebrate a birthday too much!): We celebrate in San Antonio with the family, and then again when our dear friend came to visit us in the middle of Nowhere, OK, and the finally on her actual big day.

We had a party, and invited friends, had dinner, and sang happy birthday. And in a trend I think we might find ourselves doing for many Brooke birthdays to come, we went to the Fall Festival on base. It was a big deal! There were pony rides and bouncy houses and slides, trunk or treating, face painting, bean bag toss... the works! It was sort of like a giant over the top birthday party for our sweet girl, and she loved the bounce house and slides.

She certainly is a gift to us, and so loved. Happy birthday sweet girl!
