Brooklyn and her friend Jocelyn spent hours practicing to put on a play of the movie Frozen. It was so cute they did awesome! (Photobomb by Bry...we pretended he was Olaf)
Today we went to Chuck E. Cheese with some friends...
Bry playing some games
Riding some rides...
Fun things the kids have said or done...
Bry woke up Brookly one morning by opening her eye and saying "Do you wanna build a snowman?" (Apparently we have watched Frozen a few too many times...) When that didn't work he added "Right now, at grandma's house!"
Bryson loves to dip his food in fry sauce and ketchup, but the other day I think I might have had to draw the line. He dipped his Oreo in fry sauce and ate it while saying "yum!" I am pretty sure that is illegal in at least 43 states...and just gross.
We were watching the Olympics tonight and I was trying to explain countries to Brooklyn, and so I asked her if she knew what country we lived in and she said (after guessing our city and state) "Oh I know, it is Country Bend" (the road we live on.) Ha! Makes sense, right?
We had lots of fun! Hopefully I can update my blog again before another 3 months passes!
