Bryn turns 2!

Bryn had her 2nd birthday on November 30th.  Bryn was very excited about 
her "Happy to You" day!  She woke up  in a great mood and it continued 
when she was surprised with 2 balloons in her bedroom and doughnuts 
for breakfast.  We played outside and around the house before going to
 MyGym in the afternoon.  Then we celebrated with dinner with family.
 Our kitchen countdown sign helped Bryn understand when her "Happy to You" was coming.
Bryn's Dora, Diego, and Boots cake.  She was very excited about eating it and
 blew out the candles before we were done singing!
 Piper and Bryn at the kid table :)
 Opening presents - she got the hang of it quickly!
 She looked like Schroeder from Charlie Brown playing her piano!
Opening her new kitchen
 Definitely a hit with all the pots and pans, utensils, and food!

Thanksgiving in Michigan

We always go to Michigan for Thanksgiving, and this year we spent 10 days! 
 It was nice to get back to our house and Bryn got to see her Michigan friends
 and play with all of her toys that we leave up there.
Unfortunately I forgot my good camera in Florida, so you 
get to view high quality iPhone pictures!

She found a love for this doll furniture patio set that she can still fit into. 
She requested to eat her breakfast there and watch a video on the iPad.
It was too cute that I couldn't say no!

 Leaning back and relaxing!

Wednesday was nice enough that we went outside.  Bryn wanted to go to the beach and was very disappointed when her box of sand toys was not available.

 So we found a stick and picked rocks to throw in the rock pile.
 I had gotten a few deals at the end of the summer, but kept them hidden from Bryn.
So I wrapped one up for her to practice as her birthday was right around the corner.
 She got the idea of unwrapping and loved her "Makin' Mud Pie" kitchen.
Her dad, on the other hand, was ready for it to be outside next summer!

We bundled up for the Bad Axe Christmas parade on Saturday night.
Bryn was a good sport about the cold weather and very excited
 about letting us know that more lights were coming!
 Yep, the tractors are all decorated!
 My bundled up baby!
 And yes, I sent her out in the street to pick up candy!

We woke up on our last morning to snow!
I was so happy that Bryn could see and feel exactly what snow was.
Back at home after church
You call this....snow?!
How does it feel? 
 Mumma, my hands are cold!

Picture Perfect!
