Happy THanksgiving 2009

For Thanksgiving we went to my Aunt and Uncles house for some Thanksgiving fun. But, this year something special happened. Madison lost her first tooth. She was brushing her teeth and out it fell. She was so excited that it finally come out. She could not wait till the tooth fairy came to leave her some money. Now that one is out and one is growing in, her second tooth is not getting lose. Hopefully this one will not take as long as the last one.

I hope everyone had a fanastic Thanksgiving and may the holidays bring you joy.

Busy, Busy, Busy

We have been very busy these past few months. Madison had her first dance recital, which she did great. I think I was more nervous then she was. She has started first grade and is loving every minute of it. She is now reading chapter books by herself and they are finishing up learning how to add; next is subtractions.

After school she has been dancing again, ballet and tap. She also started something new, it is called Ponies and Ride. She has learned how to clean, saddle and ride miniture ponies. She can not wait to start it again in the spring. And to top it all off, she is playing soccer agian. She is learning a lot and avearging 3 goals per game.

Asheboro, NC 2009

Rob and I have been married for 8 years this May and decided to go to Asheboro for Our Anniversary. Of course, we took Madison. This year we went Horse back riding and to the NC Zoo. Madison's highlight was the riding. The horse she had was named Daisy and when she got on it, she looked like a pro. We were on the trail for over an hour and she never stopped smiling. She even got the horse to run a little and giggled the whole time. She now wants us to move to a house with more property so she can get a horse.



The Zoo was also a lot of fun. Even if though the weather was bad, we had a blast. Her favorite was the giraffe and the zebras. She made friends with a polar bear that was doing tricks in the water and a very friendly gorilla who kept scratching his stomache. She loved every minute of it.



As of today Madison has only 11 days of school left and summer vactaion begings. She can not wait to be done.

Keeping Busy

Madison started soccer again. So far she is doing really good at practice. Her first game was suppose to be last week but it was rained out. She is looking forward to her first game on 3/17, we are just praying it does not rain.

Madison is also busy in dance class. She is learing both tap and ballet. She can not wait to get on stage in June to show us all what she has learned. I hope when she gets up there she actually dances.

This weekend we are heading to Fayetville to see Playhouse Disney. This is the only thing she has been talking about all the week.

School is going well for her. She is reading on a 1st grade level and is enjoying counting by 5's and 10's. Keep up the good work KID!!!!

Madison's first Snow

Yeap, it snowed here in the Carolina's. School was closed on Tuesday due to the 1 inch of snow that we got and they had a two hour delay on Wend. due to the low tempture and ice.

Madison was so excited to see the snow. She ran from window to window watching it fall. We spent most of the day outside with the neighborhood kids. Our next door neighbor had a sleigh which the kids took it to the ditch behing the houses to ride. We call in Red Neck sleigh ride. She made her first snow angel and had her first snowball fight. This of course ended in a disaster. She ended up getting hit in the mouth with the snow ball, which she now has a fat lip. All and all the day was great!
