Florida Pictures...FINALLY!!!

These pictures are from our visit starting the morning after Christmas. Sorry it took so long to post ;)


Trying to wake Jeff after only sleeping a couple hours. Brooke slept the entire trip so she was up early!

Brooke and Poppi.

Brooke and Nina.

Brooke hanging out with Daddy. There were only a few warm days while we were in Florida this visit. Most of the time it was cold/freezing!!!

Brooke got this outfit for Christmas from my Mom. I had to put it on her down there since it's definitely too cold here to wear it!


Brooke with her 2nd cousin (I think that's right) Celyn.

The guys doing what they do best! ;)

Brooke loved their cats!!! Tex was the nicer one of the 2. He didn't seem to mind Brooke (in less she was chasing him down in her walker!)



Mommy helping Brooke open her Christmas presents.



Uncle Rich and Poppi.

Brooke's 2nd cousin RJ whom she shares a birthday with.


Uncle Harry, Aunt Janet, Aunt Mary and Great-Aunt Barb waiting for the fried turkeys so we can eat!

Jeff's Grandma and Uncle Rich.



Jeff loves his new "Fairy" outfit from his Mom!

Brooke gives her new learning puppy a kiss. She's such a sweet little girl!!!





Poppi and Brooke at Chipotle for lunch.


After lunch we headed to the RC air fields to watch RJ fly his plane.


Brooke gets a ride on Daddy's shoulders at the air park.

Brooke loved to look at herself in Nina and Poppi's big mirror.



Brooke can't decide what to get a Wings-n-Things while waiting on Poppi to meet us for lunch.


Daddy makes such a mess eating wings! Brooke let Daddy borrow her bib!



Somebody was tired!!!


Tweety running from Brooke!!!

Brooke had a pig tail on her head but she decided to pull the rubber band out.

Brooke asleep with her blue pillow in tow.

Brooke and Tex posing for a picture.

Brooke meets a new friend, Charleigh who is a month or two younger than Brooke. I just love her hair!!!





Charleigh and Brooke share a love for eating books.

Brooke and Mommy having a snack at the Art Festival downtown.



Getting ready for Brooke's 1st birthday party!

Brooke wants some cake NOW!!!

Brooke reading her card with the help of her Great-Aunt Mary.

Brooke loved her new sippy cup! She tried to drink out of it immediately.

Why isn't anything coming out??? And why is Great-Grandma and Great-Aunt Mary laughing at me?

Brooke trying out her new laptop computer.

Brooke showing her new computer to Great-Grandma.

Brooke likes to save energy by keeping the lid closed. She doesn't like it open!! lol


Brooke's birthday cake from Dairy Queen (I think!) They even did the writing for Nina! I don't think Nina was very impressed with the penmanship.



These pictures are from Butterfly World. It was too cold for the Butterflies to be outside so we didn't get to see many of those. The highlight of our day was feeding the birds!


Jeff caught a picture of a hummingbird while it was sitting on a branch. They don't stay put long!




Brooke seemed to be enjoying her visit!


Brooke watching Daddy feed the parrots.

I'm so glad the parrot didn't poop on my head.

We let the parrots join in the family picture!




Kissing birds!




This bird started eating my ponytail!









This was right before Jeff and I headed off to Matt's wedding! This was the coldest night too! We froze!!!!




These were a few clips from her Birthday Celebration at Nina and Poppi's house.
