Brooklynn certainly did have a very big day. Very long, very tiring, but very fun. She stayed at her school last night until 10:30, because Jill had to lock the building after Parents' Night Out. She was zonked asleep when they brought her in the house. She woke up early this morning and had a wonderful time playing with her friends at the party this afternoon. She needs to get a good long sleep tonight.
She had a nice group of friends from school and church, and they loved climbing up and sliding down the waterslide. Bella was right in the middle of it all, too. Climbing is one of her favorite activities.
We will have pictures. Trent, Tanya, Jarvis, Spencer, and I came on home around 7. Trent drove my car, and it gave the two of us some one-on-one time, which I very much enjoyed. Jarvis and Spencer said Tanya slept the whole way back.

They have gone to Brandon's now to play the Wii. (Brandon wasn't able to come to the party today.)
Jill and crew will be coming up here in the morning. They were going to come tonight, but one of the families called a few minutes after they left the party and said their car had broken down. John and his dad went to help, and Jill went to pick up the mom and her daughter so that they could come back to the house and stay inside and cool while they worked. They ended up having the car towed, so Jill and John loaned them one of their cars for the rest of the weekend. By the time they got all of that settled, it was late, so she called and said they'd just sleep at home and come tomorrow. That will be better for the girls, anyway. They have long been asleep now, I'm sure.
Brooklynn got a lot of fun presents - Toy Story, Barbie, jewelry, clothes. She loved it all. She got a box from
Wigd and
Shocker. She was thrilled.

Bella loved her baby, too, and said 'baby' over and over and over.
Time for some sleep now. Tomorrow we'll have a beach party, since everyone didn't get to go to WDW together this summer. Drew is in Ohio this weekend, but he said he'll either be back late tonight or tomorrow morning. I hope he will be here in time to eat lunch with us.
I hope you are all having a wonderful weekend filled with family, friends, and fun!
