Gordie, who?

Brenley walks into the living room, stands in front of Kyle sitting on the couch and (all dramatically, nonetheless) tells him:

"Daddy, This is really gonna make you happy! I'm gonna take my Hannah Montana microphone down the basement with the rest of the toys because I'm gonna write a song. (As she stands there with a piece of paper and a pen in hand.) ... Madden, would you like to come downstairs with me as a I write a song?"

LMAO

To add to the drama of it all, she's in tonight's bedtime attire:
A plaid bow headband
A black sparkly sweater coat
A sparkly silver belt

Merry Christmas -- Brenley's big break out

Here's the Brenley almost no one gets to see (but us at home)!
She got a microphone/stage from Santa and decided to rock out with Uncle Pat tonight.
You should have seen her Axl Rose-esque moves at that mic!
Enjoy!

A message from Santa!

Brenley received a very important message from Santa today. You can see it here:

Dance, Dance wherever you may be...

Who won this episode of "tradesies"?

We were asking Brenley today if she enjoyed her lunch at school.

Well, I didn't really eat a whole lot of it..."

me: "Is that cuz you weren't feeling well?"

No, not really. I just didn't like it that much (It was roast beef & potatoes). But it's ok, cuz Grace and I traded.

"What did you trade?" I asked, thinking she gave Grace her roast beef?!

Well, you know those round meat things that sometimes can be really spicy but these ones weren't?

"You mean Salami?"

Yeah. that.

"So, what did you trade her in return?"

oh, a couple of rocket candy.

LOL. Here's hoping Grace wasn't too hungry this evening!

What?!?!

Driving in the truck last night, Brenley & Madden were playing "teacher & student" -- Brenley was the teacher, obviously.
So, she asks him after he repeated a bunch of words,

"Maddddd-ennn, can you say your ABCs?"

No response

"MADD-DEN, can you say your ABCs?!"

Then we hear a little voice starting to sing the ABCs melody...

"OH MY GOD, kid! Do you hear that, Mamaidh?" (Turns to him)
"Um, you're kinda freaking me out!"

(To me):
"I didn't think he was that smart!"

LMAO
