It's GREAT to be EIGHT!!

Brooke is 8 today! It would be GREAT except she is home sick from school today :(. She has a bit of a stomach bug, poor thing. The nice thing about it is dad is working from home today and he's not been too busy so they've played the WII for several hours. We had a plans to get pedicures after school (a friend got her a gift certificate--they know us too well)and then go to Chuck-E-Cheese for dinner. We may still do the pedicures if she's feeling up to it later.

She did have a fun birthday party with friends this past weekend. I had planned to do a park party since our house is so small. Then it had been raining nonstop and I didn't know if that would work out or not. The morning of the party was hit or miss showers, but the weather during the party was perfect! It was a great day!
