25 Questions for the birthday boy

Yes, I promise to fill in the many missing pictures and events that have happened since New Years, but in honor of Brandon's 3rd birthday, I wanted to share a little more about him!


Here are his answers to 25 questions about some of his favorite things.  I plan to ask him and Brooke (starting when she's 3) these same questions each year on their birthday to keep a record of the things they are interested and to see how their answers change year after year.  My comments are in parentheses.
