b-day party for the brookerhood (november 2017)

Brooks/Brookerhood or Brooksie (from his toddler days:-) was awfully happy to have a "friend party" for his 11th b-day. Since I'm frantically trying to catch up on our blog (yet again) and am a whopping year-and-a-half behind, I'm going to keep this short and sweet ... 

Friends came over to hang out, play video games, eat pizza (all the pics of that were way too disgusting) ...

And of course open presents!!

Books, bats, and balls (lots of them) were apparently on the list for this pre-teen.

Sugary snacks and money were also included ... and MUCH appreciated!

Not sure what exactly these two gave him ... other than a serious sibling "squishy" and a definite lack of personal space.

Hard to see it in this pic, but Brooks' preferred b-day dessert is a ice-cream sandwich cake, so we definitely incorporated that as well! Mmmmmm!! So good.

Like I said, short and sweet! We sure do love this quirky, curious, intelligent, social, active (and kind of mean to his brother, according to Joe;) kid!! He's definitely an important part of our crazy fam!!

I've been meaning to update our blog layout with the new family pictures we had taken in November. But since I'm not going to get around to it anytime too soon, I thought I'd include a couple with this post. Aren't ' they cute! The crazy part, though, is that as much as I LOVE these pictures (thanks to McKenzie Goff), they will already be outdated as of September. Here's why ... Dueck baby #5 Arriving September 24 th 2010
