Reed turns 6

Our sweet Reed turned 6.  Loving, kind, silly, and playful.  Reed still loves to cuddle and is always up for any kind of sports. He is incredibly smart and is often doing his own thing. 

Medieval Times

Instead of gifts for Christmas this year, we decided to start doing fun family experiences with the Brashears given to each other.  This year we picked Medieval Times for an awesome night of fun.  We had fantastic seats on the front row in the center.  Ryland, Reed, and Benton loved cheering for black and white knight.  It was awesome seeing them get into it!

Emory cheered on our knight, and he stopped to throw her a beautiful carnation.  This made Ridley extremely jealous, and she started pouting.

The knight came back around two more times and did not throw Ridley a flower, so she was upset.  The knight then presented a ribbon to one lucky lady in the crowd, and he selected Ridley.  By this point, she was so pissed.  She wouldn't slide the ribbon off the joust stick.  I slid it off, and she traded it for Emory's carnation.  Hahaha!  Girls! 

We had a wonderful night, and we all agree this was better than purchasing gifts for one another's children.  What will we do next year?

Celebrating Friendship

We have been so blessed this year to get the most wonderful new neighbors.  The Scillians are awesome, and my entire family has fallen in love.  Tonight the girls celebrated Jill's birthday with our little ladies in tow.  They all get along so well together, and I am reminded how lucky I am to have such fantastic neighbors.

Ridley's 3rd Birthday

 Ridley celebrated her 3rd birthday on a beautiful afternoon at Bicentennial Park.  We lucked out and had gorgeous weather, so we just had to move the party.  She had lots of family and friends join the celebration.  

Ridley is a fun, silly, and active chicka.  She keeps her brothers in line and doesn't take any crap.  We love her no-nonsense way of dealing with them.  She is also very girly and loves dolls and make up.  She enjoys dancing, coloring, and being outdoors. 

Ridley could swing for hours.  

Ridley and her friend from school, Brooklyn, loved it!

Medieval Times

Reed celebrated Travis' 6th birthday at Medieval Times in Dallas.  He was so excited to come home and tell us all about the awesome fighting knights and horses.  Go green knight!
