Brylee happens to love this girl. Her name is Lexi and she is in Brett's class.

While Brett practiced basketball this season Brylee would peek through the glass at Lexi's dance class and dance her heart out with Lexi. She talks about Lexi at least 20 times a day!

Out of the Mouth of Brylee

"Mama you smell good just like Mimi."

"Is that a good smell Brylee?"

"Yep you and Mimi smell just like peach skin and your face smells good like the inside of Mimi's car....and I know why you smell like Mimi, it is because you stayed in Arizonia too long."

"I think you are right Brylee!"
