I am finally getting around to posting Brooklyn's birthday pictures. Better late than never. I can't believ my baby girl is two all ready. Where does time go? Brooklyn had a little party on her birthday and had several friends come over to play, eat cake, and open gifts. We ate an Abby Cadabby cake made by our friend Krista. (Thanks again Krista, for doing such a wonderful job) Brooklyn received many things including a picnic set, a movie, a set of cows(for those of you who don't know she has a major obssession with cows), clothes, a purple puppy, puzzles, and a toy piggy bank. She loves all of her new things and is so grateful to everyone.

We had a wonderful Christmas break and were able to spend almost three weeks at home with our families. We had a great time seeing lots of family as well as friends. We even ran into two families from our Pennsylvania ward at the local mall. Here are some pictures from our trip.
