Happy Birthday Miss Sprinkles!!

Friday, September 19 was Brynklie Jo Shotwell's 8th birthday!
I think she had a great day! It seems like only yesterday that we were enjoying toting this one around on our hip! She has always been a pleasant, sweet child.....one of our most quiet ones!!! If that is possible! She is definitely our peanut! Her older boy cousins started lovingly calling her "Sprinkles" when she was about 3 years old! She definitely sprinkles sunshine wherever she goes!
We started off the morning with donuts and chocolate milk, her choice!

She then opened her gifts, her favorite being her "Miley Cyrus" doll!!!

Grandma Sandy was even sweet enough to come join us at 7 am to party!!

That night we all went to the Snow Canyon vs. Desert Hills Varsity Football Game! Her friend Avynlee came with us and Brynklie had a great time watching the Warriors shut out the Thunder! 48-0!!! We really enjoyed watching John Jr. get some great tackles! One of Jaycie's good friends Brooke Merrill was also having her 16th surprise birthday party this same night. She wore this tiara and banner all night long at the game and then was sweet to present it to Brynklie after the game was over! Brynklie and Avynlee later enjoyed a fun sleepover which is saved for only special occasions! Next weekend we will baptize Brynklie at the Santa Clara Stake Center 3pm! She is truly looking forward to that!
