4 Years Old

Brooke turned 4 on March 18th!

On her birthday our family took Frontrunner down to Salt Lake to go out to dinner and shop. The kids love trains and have been working hard to earn enough stars on their charts to get to ride "the fast train" as they call it. They were a little nervous getting on but loved it for the most part. Cole watched out the window almost the whole time. We ate at California Pizza Kitchen (Brooke's choice) and they brought her her very own ice-cream sunday.

 The day after, we had a party with family at our house. She wasn't interested at all in the presents, just opening them. She requested a pink and purple butterfly cake (I still struggle when it comes to frosting those stupid things, I'd love some tips on how to do it better!).
