It's here! It's here! It's FINALLY HERE!!


Heaven's hard work has paid off and with a final total of $235.00 earned,  today she headed off to camp. Words cannot express how excited she was this morning! She said she was a little bit nervous, but mostly just eager to get her week at camp started. She elected to ride the bus to camp & from camp and was excited to see several girls show up at the last minute to meet the bus as well. John had her convinced it was the all boy week and that she'd somehow slipped thru the screening process.

Notice her "adventure hat"she picked up yesterday while we were getting the rest of her camp supplies at Target.

Look at her grin...she was seriously so stinking excited

I cannot believe my lil HB is old enough for camp. I was going thru old photos and just look at these of baby Heaven from when me and John were dating...

Our first Halloween

Look. at. those. cheeks

Our very first camping trip! 

100 days of Kindergarten 

She's barely bigger than the pumpkin! 
And today, her first solo travel journey. She'll be back packing thru Europe before we know it...



We've prepared a few post cards to be sent to her thru out the week to let her know we're thinking about her. There is a dinner on Friday evening where the parents can come visit the camp grounds and watch the kids get awards as well. John's out of town this week, so it may just be me but one of us will be there to greet her for sure. She will ride the bus back home Saturday morning.

Birthday Bash Numero Uno

Pretend It's January 5th, 2013 It's Birthday Season here at the Brandito Lair! Mr. Brandt heads back tomorrow and it's time for the annual triple treat birthday party for Mr. B, Uncle Danny and Annabelle.  Katy made 2 delicious cakes for the event. The boys got their own green cake and Annabelle got her own special Mario Cake.  We had some delicious food and the Birthday people got lots of special prizes!  The UnBirthday Party was definitely a success! 

Baby You're A Firework

One of these outfits was self chosen....the other was chosen by Mama...can you guess which is which?                   Happy 4th of July everyone!!  It was a rainy 4th for us Floridians. But with the rain comes cooler temperatures, and I'll take a little wet over sweat any day.   We started the 4th off by sleeping in (which of course still means we were up by 9...) and then cooked out with the Brandt/Simmons clan for lunch. We'd planned to go to the Riverwalk area too take part in the crafts and whatnot but once the girls heard Ava was already at Nana's house...they could not be persuaded to do anything that did not include being with her.   Cousins                  It was overcast and cloudy all day, but we did manage to escape most of the rain. Until the fireworks that is. I'm talking lite...

Wackiness

  It's wacky hat day at PRE today. Only Annabelle felt inclined to participate as it costs 2 feathers. Heaven said it was a "total waste of feathers" and Gavin said nothing as his only hat is a Seminole hat and he's gone rogue lately claiming suppot for Gators. My dear Annabelle made up for both of their lack of sense & style.  She is both Fancy in my large sunhat and Fabulous in her FSU Friday decor.   Doesn't get much better. Happy Friday!
