Another visit from the tooth fairy!

Brooke lost her first tooth...on her own! She is so proud to have another hole in her mouth. She finally decided to be brave and let Daddy "pull" it out (I don't even think it was attached in any way shape or form!)

Cowboys vs. Eagles

Brad and Bryce got to make their first trip to Cowboys Stadium last Sunday to watch the Cowboys BEAT the Eagles!!! They had an awesome time! The original plan was for all four of us to go, and then the plan was for just Brad and I to go since we ended up with 2 tickets (and b/c it was our anniversary!) :) But, it gave me much MORE JOY to let Bryce go in my place. He drew pictures of the field throughout church drawing all the players and the scoreboard with the Cowboys winning, of course...and that was before we even told him he was going!!! Once we got home from church, I asked him what time the game started, and then, handed him the tickets to see if he could figure it out! He was PUMPED!!! Brooke and I enjoyed a fun girls afternoon, and Brad and I will be celebrating our anniversary this coming weekend!

Sock Hop

Brooke was up early and SO excited to finally wear her poodle skirt today for the Sock Hop at school! She looked so cute in her blinged out poodle skirt! Bryce was too cool to participate. I couldn't even get him to wear a white T-shirt! But as I was dropping him off at school and he saw everyone else dressed up, he did say it was ok if I brought him a white T-shirt to wear with his jeans.

STATE CHAMPS!!!

WOW, what a week we had at the state championship tournament in big Sulphur Springs, TX last week! Bryce's team went undefeated, winning the tournament and moving on to the National tournament in Louisiana this weekend! Here's a few highlight pics...

We are the champions...

We had a great (and hot) Father's Day at the baseball fields (well, after a great morning at church!)
WooHoo! Way to go Prosper All-Stars! Bryce's team won their district tourney, and not only did they win, they run ruled the other teams in all 6 games they played! We will now move on and play in the state tournament in big Sulphur Springs, TX starting on July 4! Happy Vacation to us! :)
It was so special that Brad's dad could also be there for the championship game on Sunday! Like father, like son...like son!
Such a cute group of boys...and awesome ball players too!
TROOPER is Brooke's new nickname! She definitely deserves the "sister of the year" award for being a trooper through all of brother's games! This is another trooper lil sis in this pic with her!

Miscellaneous

It's been busy, but fun times around our house lately! Bryce tried out for the Prosper All-Star baseball team last week and made the 1st team! So, we are all about baseball around here...AGAIN! He's acquired a lot of cool new stuff for the team too...and these are just his practic jerseys! He's pretty pumped, and we're very proud of him.
The kids and I went to Waco for a few days last week to hang out with the cousins. These boys are way too big!
We were so excited to see that the Baylor bear does actually wake up and come out of his (actually, I think it's her) little cave. This is probably the 10th time we've stopped by the bear pit, and the first time we've actually seen a bear awake! Of course she was only up for a second, but it was still fun to see her up.
AWANA awards at church...It's always big fun to walk across stage and get your name called out!

Bryce's last day of school this year was on SATURDAY, May 30, and to get all the kids to show up, they did their awards ceremony that morning. We were very proud of Bryce for receiving an "A Honor Roll" award...and the token field day award!
We've adjusted pretty well to being back in Texas and living in Prosper, but it's been so fun to have some Arkansas friends move here too! Here's a pic of Brooke and Lowery on the merry go round at Stonebriar Mall (a little different than a trip to the NWA mall!)

Bryce's buz and Brooke's big week

Last week was eventful in our house! In yet another attempt to be even more like his daddy, Bryce got a buz...from Daddy of course!
Brooke graduated from preschool! Such a bittersweet moment. She did a great job marching in to pomp & circumstance, singing "Moving up to Kindergarten" and receiving her diploma!
"All I want for Christmas (this year...and the next 3!!!!) is my 2 front teeth!" Brooke had to have her front 2 teeth pulled. A pocket of infection had formed above the roots of these teeth because of a couple bad falls and that would have scarred the adult teeth if left alone. She was SO brave and did a great job. She's been very proud to show off her empty mouth which is pretty cute now. The tooth fairy brought her 2 $2 bills!
