Birthdays

Brianna loves birthdays...doesn't matter whose it is.  She was so excited to go up to Oxford a couple of weeks ago to celebrate Uncle Tommy's birthday.  She even told me when we bought his gift that she would help him open it.  She helped him open all of his gifts and cards :-)

Two days later we celebrated Reesee's birthday by singing to him and giving him a special dinner...Brianna insisted on wearing her old birthday hat from when she turned 1.  Reesee is now 5 years old!

Somersault

Brianna was practing her somersault last week.  In the video, she keeps saying "Oops, I didn't" :-)  She is persistent though - keeps trying until she gets it!

Tiny Tunes

Brianna had her last dance class of the summer tonight.  She loved going every week, so I decided to sign her up for the year-long class.  Daddy can't wait to go to her recital next June! :-)  Brianna really seemed to come out of her shell this last class and went to stand over by the teachers instead of by me.  Maybe it was her new ballet slippers that did the trick...

Favorite part of class...getting stickers

Piano

Brianna stayed home today with a fever, but that did not deter her from enjoying her regular piano performances, of which she likes me to "take a picture."  Uploading these especially for my friend's daughters - Kari, Karly and Kori - to enjoy :-)

Coney Island

We had a fun time at Coney Island with Lori and Ethan last week!  Luckily the rain stayed away so Brianna and Ethan were able to enjoy the pool and the rides!

Little daredevils...

Summertime fun

We have had a busy, but very fun summer so far.  Hard to believe there is only a little over a month left before Austin starts back to school!  We have been to Jamaica, Coney Island several times, played in the sprinkler, and had a fun 4th of July!  Brianna also had a big weekend last weekend - moving to her "big girl bed", and also is well on her way to being potty trained!

On the airplane ready to go to Jamaica:

She loved the beach!

Also loved seeing Elmo :-)

Fruity drinks...

Nice family picture

The whole Horner clan!

Back at home...playing in the sprinklers

Ready for Grandma Linda's annual 4th of July party

Sparklers with her cousin, Ava

Ready for the 4th of July parade

This was better than trick-or-treat...just had to sit there and came home with a bag FULL of candy!

Little princess :-)

Big girl bed!
