Here's a pic of Brookie 3 days post-injury. Looks pretty mild, it did heal up rather fast.Brooke decided it'd be a good idea to put her head through a window.
She was running, and I was telling my friend Julie, who was visiting at the time, "Ya, she's into running everywhere lately." This sentence was immediately followed by the sound of shattering glass. She had somehow tripped and fell straight into the french door to our laundry room and broke the bottom pane of glass.
It looked worse at first than it was at first since face cuts/scrapes tend to bleed pretty good.
She was such a trooper about it all and sat still while I picked glass out of her hair. (she did scream pretty good at first though.) Geneva's retelling involved telling Uncle Brian that Brookie "steamed and tied, and steamed and tied!" See if you can figure that one out. :) It took Bri a few seconds.

Anyway, Someone was realllllly looking out for Brookie that morning. It was VERRRRY scary, and we're so thankful it wasn't any worse!!
Mi familia came down for Easter weekend!!! (we missed you, Dave and Christel!!! Hope you had a good time in N. Carolina) Even Bailey got to come. She was such a good girl, and the girls LOVED having her here. (Brookie has a stuffed dog named Bailey named after her)
As tradition has it, we headed out for a big walk in the woods.
The girls love their "untles"
G did great and only needed a few....
piggy backs (or in this case, piggy-fronts)ok, I can't figure out how to un-underline this sentence. Weird.
Even I got a piggy back!
The Huisman-Mulder gang(minus Bri, who took the pic)
I like this one almost as much as the first one... hehe
I loooooooooooooooooove my m-ma
Feet in the hot tubWe don't quite have enough sleeping room for everyone, so mom and dad hotelled it. The second night they let us have a date night! They stayed at our place and we got to go hot-tubbing and swimming and sleep in!!!! No kids to get ready for church in the am! Yummy hot breakfast in the morning too. What a treat. Muchas Gracias Mama y Papa! :0)
(Where this Spanish is coming from I'm not sure. Too much Dora and Diego maybe?)

ouch.Anyway, so glad you dorkles were able to come with, even though Bri ended up getting into a bit of an accident on the way home, involving a deer and getting home to Holland MI at 2 am..... Hope it was still worth your while. (it definitely was for us!!!!)
Jam session with uncle Bri on guitar, uncle Bobby on vocals, Geneva on maracas.
Not sure why G is holding her toe. Maybe it added some extra maraca beat?
