Madi's 1st day of school!

Madison is so big now. She didn't even care that I was leaving her at school. She didn't even want to love on me, so I had to make her come back and give me some lovin'. She was ready to go back, I guess dad was too boring during the summer. HAHAHA!!! She didn't want to take a picture for me!

Roy & Zeida's House

We went to their house to visit and had a great time. Madi loves Avary.
Avary had some Hannah Montana Hair Sticks. This is what their hair looked liked after Christa fixed their hair!
Little Livi's hair!
After Madi got a hold of the stick!!! I love her soooo much.
They had a great time playing in the sprinkler's.


But then they were freezing!!
So we took a warm bath and got clean. This is what the water looked like after getting the pink out of their hair. You can't really tell but the water was orange and really dirty!
This is the girls showing us their "moves"!!

Cousins Slumber Party


We had our first ever

COUSINS SLUMBER PARTY!!

It was so much fun, I think Colten & Caitlin were the most surprised at how much fun we had. They didn't know how fun the AUNTS could be, they thought only Grandma was fun.

I had to destroy the house so that we could have a big enough wall for the BIG MOVIE, we were going to watch.
Roster: Madison, Olivia, Colten, Caitlin, Cade, Makynli, Jaxon & Makenna.
Moms: Sarah, Staci & Terra.
First we went swimming on Friday. Jaxon found a bug in the pool. Colten in the sandbox.
I love Cade's face in this picture.After swimming we decorated pillow cases, Madi is behind Colten.The kids had so much fun doing their own thing.My little Miss Madi P.Here are some of the finished products: Livi, Makenna & Jaxon's.Livi sat on Colten's case, so her hiney has a "t" & "e" on her diaper!We made such a mess with the paint that we had to wash the kids outside.A little play time before we had dress up.Aunt Terra brought about 40 different outfits for the kids to dress up in. It was really fun watching them.We also had wigs for them to use. Here is Livi in her "hairpiece". She was soooo mad when I put this in her hair.If you look closely you can see she has a tear on her left eye, she did get over being mad pretty quickly.Madi had a great time dressing up and being with all of her cousins. By the time I took this photo it was really late and she was so tired, nothing would make her happy, but I had to see her in this dress. I was right though, she looks soooo cute in it, and it was worth making her mad to get the shot.

I wanted to take a cute pic of the girls in their petticoat's but Livi was not going to cooperate!!

MOVIE TIME!!!

Aunt Stacie did the coolest thing!! She brought money and movie tickets for the kids to use to come to the movie. She setup a "snack bar" for the kids to have to give their tickets and purchase snacks. The kids loved it and I did too.


Here is Madi "buying " her snacks for the movie!!
The movie is now playing. And it's the first time everyone is sitting down and being still!!!

The next morning this is what everyone looked like sleeping!


After we had pancakes and bacon for breakfast we did another activity, thanks to Terra! The kids got to decorate door hangers with lots of stickers. Flowers for the girls and sports for the boys.

After that, we went to the Children's Museum! There is so much to do there that we were able to let them run wild, sort of.

Aunt Terra, Makenna, Makynli & Caitlin.

Cade & Caitlin forecasting the weather. Apparently, there were 400 tornado's!!! It was a very scary time.
Makynli & Livi playing in the "baby room".

Caitlin thought she could escape the camera but I still got her, and it turned out to be a very pretty pic of her!
