Klug Family Reunion

The Klug family reunion was a blast!  Jack, Sam, Noah, and Kristina came to visit on Wednesday night.  I had class, but Grant and Brielle took everyone to the pool.  On Friday, we left for Lebanon to start the fun.  We went swimming with the whole family on Saturday.  Then we went to Great Grandma and Great Grandpa's house for a BBQ.  Scarlett brought her adorable pony Conan.  He gave all the kids rides several times, and it was hot!  Brielle loved playing with Charlie, Timmy, and Nathan.  She was the only girl.  Brielle wanted to have a dance party Saturday night and put on quite a show.  She was really the only one dancing, but the boys obliged her request.  In fact in Brielle words, "They are practicing their moves."  On Sunday, we went to church and had a wonderful lunch.  We were lucky to get to spend more time with Jack, Sam, Noah, and Kristina before they left for Colorado.  We can't wait for the reunion in three years!

Hudson's Karate Brithday

Hudson had a karate birthday.  I was a little nervous to see how the whole karate thing went, but Brielle had a blast!  They started by doing tumbling and jumping on mats.  Then a real karate teacher taught them some moves.  Brielle loved it!  She did really well too!  Her punches were a little dainty, but she made a good effort.  :)  Happy Birthday Hudson!

New Doll House

Brielle got a very special birthday gift from Uncle Jay and Aunt Tiffany.  I wasn't able to see her get the gift, but here are a few clips from that night.  Uncle Jay and Aunt Tiffany painted and built the entire house.  It took them hours and hours.  They also drove all the way from Colorado to give it to Brielle.  Thanks!  We love you!



Conversation of the Day

What did you do today at school?
I played Rapunzel with Sophie and Ellie.
That sounds fun!  How do you play Rapunzel?
Well, Sophie and I were Rapunzel.  Ellie was Rapunzel's mom.
What happens next?
Ellie climbed up our hair to the castle.
Wow!  That sounds like fun game.  Who thought of that game?
I did!

I love hearing about her interactions with friends.  It's so neat to see that social side developing!  We hope you always make good friends Brielle!

We love Yogurtini!  Grandma Carolyn came to visit Brielle on her birthday, so we took her to Yogurtini.  Thank you for visiting Grandma Carolyn! 

New Ride

Brielle got some new wheels.  I would have never thought in a million years she would have liked this, but she proved me wrong.  Brielle loves her new ride!  Thanks Brendon!

Friend Birthday Party

Brielle had her first friend birthday party.  This was an exciting adventure for everyone!  Brielle had specific ideas for the party: balloons, hats, flowers, banner, and two round pink cakes.  These were her requests.  She created her list of friends.  We had Ms. Tawna sing and dance with the kids.  Ms. Tawna was at Jenna's birthday party, and she did a great job at Brielle's.  We were so proud of Brielle for saying hi to all of her friends and introducing them to each other.  I can't wait to see Brielle's vision of her fourth birthday!











First Fish

Brielle caught her first fish with Papa!  They went fishing in Papa's pond and finally caught this little guy.  What an exciting day!  





Memorial Day Weekend

Memorial Day weekend was so much fun!  We went to the Lake to visit Grandma, Papa, Great Grandma, and Great Grandpa.  Brielle loved seeing Aunt Samantha and Uncle Jake.  She ran right past Uncle Jake to jump into Aunt Samantha's arms.  It was super cute!  She loves Aunt Samantha and Uncle Jake.  Grandma and Papa had a birthday party for Brielle.  Uncle Jim and Aunt Cindy were there as well. 

Check out the new cute hat Grant found.  She loved it!
