After starting the morning with a few presents and singing, Madison had to wait for her team to arrive. So we started the night which went pretty good. The girls got along really well, only stayed up till 1:30am. Watching movies, playing games then finally falling asleep. I think Madison had a Great Birthday. Like always is goes by quickly.

Happy Birthday Madison!!

How does time go by so quickly that I am sitting here wishing Madison a Happy 11th Birthday.

From the moment Madison took her first breath we new how blessed we were to be able to call her ours. Madison is an Amazing young lady. Madison is a wonderful example to all those around her. She has always been so grown up for her age, besides always looking older then she is, she has always had such a mature personality. Madison can light up a room with her amazing smile, she has a way with people that they instantly feel they have a connection with her. I stand in awe on how she is so strong and secure in her faith in Jesus Christ. When we moved to Ohio, I was so worried about the kids and how they would adjust to everything. Madison really surprised me. She had no problem telling everyone her beliefs and standards and that she would not be swayed in believing something else. I truly know that Madison is a choice spirit of our Heavenly Father. Besides being Spiritually strong, Madison is mentally strong. She has grown leaps and bounds from that young child who left Utah. She joined the volleyball team in which only 2 ten year olds made the team. She has excelled in school. Thanks to Stephanie Meyers. Madison loves to read. She now plays the viola, which has become quite lovely to listen to. I never wished for her to grow up so quickly, but it is quite nice to know how great she is with her brothers and sister. That she is responsible enough to take care of them. How they love her and know they can always count on her. I look at Madison and sometimes forget how young she is, then that little girl will sneak through and I see her innocents and tender heart. I know no matter how tall or old she gets, Madison will always be our Lova Bug. Happy Birthday Madison. Always remember how much we love you and how proud of you we are. Love Mommy & Daddy

We Finally Gave In.. APRIL FOOLS!!!!

We Finally Gave In..

So our kids have been begging since we left SLC for a puppy. We've lost our minds and given in.

We got a Blue Heeler/Border Collie puppy. The kids decided to name him UTE. The puppy is from a friend who's the Daddy to the puppies. So here he is. I will add more pictures when the kids get home.
