Brynnli's 7th Birthday

Our Little Brynn Bugs is 7 years old! This year Brynnli wanted a Tiana (Princess and the Frog) party. 

We started out her birthday fun with a family party. Brynnli got to open one of her presents early and it was a Tiana dress. Oh, I just love this little princess of mine. 

Our family came over and we had Brynnli's requested pizza for dinner. Then she got to open presents. She got a lot of barbies, clothes, and games. 

Brynnli chose all the games, so we played freeze dance to Tiana songs. 

We had donuts for dessert and Brynnli got to blow out the candles with her birthday buddy, Grandpa Craig, who turns 67 on the same day. 

Then we had a outdoor movie and watched Princess and the Frog. The kids all got their own package of gummy frogs and a popcorn bucket. 

The kids had glow sticks for our movie party. 

And then we ended the night with sparklers. 

On Brynnli's actual birthday, she woke up to her presents by the fireplace. We let her open her new outfit and had cinnamon rolls for breakfast. 

Then it was off to school. Brynnli took treats to her class and her class sang happy birthday to her. 

When she got home from school, she opened presents. She got a guitar and Barbies, just like she asked for. 

We went to dinner at Red Robin and then came home for cake and ice cream. 

If you thought the birthday fun was over, you would be wrong. We celebrated our Brynnie one more time with her friend party. Brynnli invited Devri from our neighborhood, Paisley, Lindsay, and Addison from school, and her cousins Kenzee and Camden. We had pizza for dinner, opened presents, and then headed off to Obstacle Warrior Kids. 

The kids played for two hours straight and were completely exhausted after. 

We had cupcakes as a very much needed pick me up mid party. 

We had the best time celebrating our Brynnie Bear and we can't believe she is already 7. In honor of her 7th birthday, here are 7 things we love about Brynnli: 

1) Brynnli is so funny. She is so animated with her facial expressions and can always find a way to make us laugh. Even when she is supposed to be in trouble, here comes Brynnli saying something funny that makes it almost impossible to be mad at her. 

2) Brynnli is so flexible and can do so many tricks. She is a beautiful dancer and tumbler and we are so proud of how hard she works to get a trick. 

3) She is very competitive. She likes to win and is not a very good loser. Even at school she is always telling us about what level in Lexia her classmates are on and how she is working really hard to get a higher level than her friends. 

4) Brynnli is a social butterfly. She can make friends where ever we go. If she is gone for a while at Caden's baseball games, she will come back and tell us she needs some candy for her friend. She doesn't always remember her new friends' names, but she always has friends around. 

5) Brynnli is doing so well in school. First grade can be a hard transition, but Brynnli's teacher tells us that she is learning so much and is doing so well in all of her subjects. Brynnli said that recess is her favorite subject and that school lunch is the best thing ever. 

6) Brynnli is such sweet daughter and sister. She is my best little friend and best snuggle bug. We love to share a Dr. Pepper and we love to run errands together. Brynnli loves her siblings and loves to play with them. 

7) We are so lucky to have her as the caboose to our family. We always say Brynnli is the life of the party and we are just living in it. Happy Birthday to our favorite 7 year old. We love you!
