Harry Potter

Well, it's done! It took me 24 hours (pausing only for 6 hours of sleep and 2 hours of a birthday party). Thanks, Mike for being a great Daddy today while I read and read all day! Of course I will not give the ending away, as I know MANY of my friends weren't quite as obsessed with finishing it as I was! :-) It will make a good movie, that's for sure. Hope you all enjoy reading this last, great work of genius! :-)

Tomorrow I will be back in Mommy-mode, with more posts & pics about Madison, I'm sure!

More Friday Fun

Seems we were pretty slow in the beginning of the week, but we sure picked it up here at the end! Today we met Hannah & Alex at the pool.

About 5 minutes later, this is what we were doing.....

(Thunder, followed by POURING rain closed us down)

Tonight at the house, Madison was exploring some Science topics - I mean playing in water. :-) She was experimenting with sink & float....getting ready for Kindergarten, huh?

Fun Friday at Trinity

Although Madison doesn't actually go to Trinity anymore, we still love to visit!

The girls acted like they hadn't seen eachother for years! It was so cute. Of course Madison, Little Miss Social, had to be the center of it all!

Then it was POOL TIME!


They had a swim, then a little sunbathing.

Uh-Oh, Daddy.....watch out for that one! (Don't worry - she didn't hug him back!)

Little Swimmer

Thursday we went swimming with "The Boys" (the cousins). It's hard to take pics when its 2 on 3, so I didn't get any of all of them this time. :-(

I know - how many pics can I have of her swimming? But she is so cute!

She rarely wears her goggles, even though she NEEDS to all the time!

Going for the backstroke! :-)

A Night at the English's

We went over to the English's for some food and fun on Sunday. The kids had a blast swinging, playing, and watching the Dads act like kids too!

They spent most of the time swinging.

A little baseball (when the Dad's weren't playing) & don't forget Nicholas!

And now, for the Backyard Homerun Derby with Buzzy, Mike, and Tom!
(I won't reveal the homerun numbers - it was a sight!)

Slip N' Slide!

Madison went over to Anthony's house on Friday for a little Slip N' Slide fun!

And she, of course, had to have some fun with Nicholas too! What a cutie!!

And Happy B-Day, Trey

Tuesday was Uncle Trey's b-day (easy to remember)! We joined the McCarley's for dinner at Chili's. YUMMY!
