Miss Noelle & Dad's Party

Welcome Baby Noelle, she arrived June 16 to my Brother Jimmy and his Sweet wife Miss Caris. Miss Noellie is so dainty and precious. It's such a joy to have another Belle in the family. Congratulations!

I'm smokin right? Okay here you all see it. This is my cleaning look. My dad had a High Priest party when I got back into Show Low that was planned for that evening so I helped with the cleaning. Scary says my Father. I agree now I'm about to post this.


Here is another sister Jodi. She was contracted by father to paint a sign for my grandparents house that is now called the Cabbage. This is where family come to stay and visit now. Dad had it fixed up real nice outside and both mom and dad fixed it up just wonderful inside with some painting works of Miss January and Miss Jodi. Forgive me sisters if I did not know that any others helped.

The Party is to start at 7pm and it was 6:30 and I still looked the way I did at the beginning at the blog, just without a smile. My dad said to me "You don't look ready, you better hurry." I was to be servant girl for mom and dad. It took me about 35Min. I walked out and to be honest I forgot what my dad said. I think it was along the lines of oh yes I remember " You sure got cleaned up". I'm going to take that as a compliment.

Cleaned Up!

Summer Home in AZ

Week of 6-21-09

Hello Arizona! I flew in and surprised my dad for fathers day. My sisters January and Julie walked in the door in front of me and dad started to talk to them then he caught my eye. His face was funny. "I thought you were flying in on Monday" he said. Surprise.

I sorta help my dear sis gut my grannies house. We stripped the carpet, swept the place out and cleaned. Well if any of you know us Brookbanks we can't move anywhere without a fresh smell of paint. So my Miss January found some cheap paint called OOPS paint ( Home Depot) and she takes off painting the house in no time! Sir Bryce was so willing to help with with the cleaning. He was all for getting up on the refrigerator to do the upper cabinets. He did a shiny good job he did. Thank you Bryce for doing the tough stove and I love those shoes too.

Another sister and I went to target with her 2 girls. Her oldest RyAnn had put these water balloons in the cart insisting that her mother purchase them for her and her sister. Janel looked at me and said these will be all over the truck by the time I get home. I found that hard to believe. These little girls would have a hard time opening that up. I never new why RyRy wanted Water Balloons out of all she could have thrown in the cart in Target. ( Kids )lol

Yes, We heard CRACK! RIP! &BOP! coming from the back. RyAnn got those Balloon opened. Never mind the warning coming from her mother. "Don't open that box RyAnn!" She would giggle and I had my camera on her just waiting for the grand shot of the snakes flying out of the can. It was funny. I never knew how bad it looked by the time Janel got home?

An OUT OF ORDER sign will not stop these girls from galloping on a horse. They jumped on as soon as we got to Pete's Fish-n-Chips the best Fish joint in the world. Hold on tight RyAnn Tenney is a Calamity with those Reigns.

Our Green Rock Starz

It was the funniest thing when Miss Sofie came into my room sporting a green wig. It looked so cute on her. She brushed it and then we had a photo shoot after. Miss Emmie got into all the fun as well as you see. It was funny to see them being so silly. How they can be so creative. I need to learn how to do slides so that Yawl can view what transpires here in our

Eastern Home!

Trek

Miss Amber with her friend Miss Taylor before they departed for trek. Don't they look cool, krisp, fed and clean. Wow it's warmer in the mountains here. Off with the bonnets. What? "we have to carry our bags". "I thought that is what the handcarts were for". I have always loved her pouty lip. I'm a sucker for it.

Well I should have packed lighter. But this will be fun.


In this line they literally had to weigh in their bags and could not exceed 15lbs. Amber's was 25lbs that was with her sleeping bag and tarp which are not included. The group that she is with are her ward friends.

And they are off with Amber and Taylor trailing in the rear. We wish them luck. It's to rain all weekend. My poor dear in the rain. I love her.

Trek Is Here in South Carolina

It is exciting that Miss Amber has the opportunity to attend Trek with the youth. It will be a wonderful experience for her. I hope she will have some great memories and stories to share. With trek came the request of a new Pioneer wardrobe to go with it. So 3 week prior I got started 3 skirts, 3 blouses, 3 aprons, 2 bonnets, 2 bloomers and a partridge in a pear tree. I just took my time and fiddled around. They look rather great I would say so for myself and the Miss Pioneer was pleased to show and muddy her new duds. The Southern Belle Dress

Austen Graduation

Congratulations 6Th grade's promotion. Friday 5, 2009 Austen had a graduation that whew lasted quite long. It was pleasant and he looked and walked tall when he received his hard yearned certificate. Good Job Son. We knew you could make it with just a sprinkle of love and focus.

All the children passed and Miss Sofie was excepted into the Eagles, which means she is a smarty. It's accelerated for the special gifted.

Austen passing by and getting certificate.


Waiting front and center.
