Pumpkins & Puppies

This past week was so much fun! I had a watch night at gymnastics, which is when my family can watch what I've learned. And mommy talked to the owner about switching me to a different night since all my friends are in the other class and they have an opening so I am happy about that. Then I had an open house at school to show off all the projects I have been working on at school. Mommy, Daddy, Cameron, Nana, Sammy, Grammy & Grandad came to see what I had done.

Oh and Cameron learned how to feed himself with a spoon, well kinda...

Saturday we went to a pumpkin patch with Grammy & Grandad and had lots of fun. They had a corn maze, animals, playground, and a hayride to where the pumpkins were. We picked some BIG pumpkins and are going to carve them soon. We got a little pumpkin for Cameron.

After the pumpkin patch mommy,daddy, me and Cameron took a drive to see PUPPIES! They are in Sedalia Missouri, which seemed like a million miles away and I kept asking when we would be there and daddy kept telling me we would be there when get there...The people that have them are very nice and we also got to see how smart and nice the puppies' parents are. They are soooo cute and I wanted all of them, but mommy said we only get one if we want a Christmas...We finally picked a name that we all liked! Hunter, since his dad's name is Gunner. We have to wait a few weeks to get him since he is only 5 weeks old. He is on the left

What A Weekend!

So Mommy and Daddy went out Friday night for a nice dinner with people mommy works with, but it was just adults, so Cameron and I stayed with Grammy & Grandad. But we were still awake when they came to get us and I could tell they were so excited that we were still up.

Then bright and early Saturday morning we got up to go on our trail ride for St. Jude Children's Hospital. And we want to thank everyone that pledged us, we raised over $500!!!

Mommy and my horse are mommy and daughter and mommy's horse got an attitude and bit her mom on the butt, so things got a little interesting, and daddy's horse was being a pain too. And then this big horse taffy tried to buck at us when we rode through the pasture where the other horses were. But all that stuff seems to scare mommy more than it does me..

Here I am cleaning out Lina's hoof...You just have to squeeze and they lift their hoof, but then you have to be careful and not get stepped, or pooped on!

Then after the trail ride we went to the fire station open house and I got to play in the new smoke house, which is like when a real house catches on fire, and then my best friends showed up so we were there for about 2 hours..

Here is my bff Hanna...

Here's me!

Finally, we topped off the day with a weenie roast and hay ride at Aunt Penny's parents' house. Daddy and me rode go carts too, but mine wasn't fast enough so I rode with daddy. I think Mommy and Daddy are wore out!

Stay tuned for our adventures this weekend...We are going to a pumpkin patch and maybe going to look at a new puppy....

Lee Dancin' Machine

Cameron and I love to dance, but sometimes I get a little crazy and knock him down, so daddy just held us so nobody got hurt. Here we are dancing to Burning down the House.

Who says boys can't play with dolls

Well it seems Cameron likes my baby doll. He loves it, kisses it and then throws it on the floor, but mainly he loves it!

All About Me

The place I take gymnastics had a float in the parade, so here I am with my "girls". Although I was on the float and missed getting the candy they throw, Daddy and Grandad made up for it and acted like children so they would get candy thrown to them.

Oh and here is a fish I caught with my Grandad. I kept saying it was 17 lb, when I meant to say 17", but daddy said it's ok to get the size wrong because most men do, when they tell their stories :)

Cameron driving

Here is Cameron driving his car in the living room. He was trying to drink his bottle at the same time, but mommy said it wasn't good to drink and drive...

Where to start

Well my mommy and daddy have been together for about a hundred years, ok maybe not that long, but mommy said they met in the 1990's, whenever that was. They are getting with times of 2008 and doing this blog so everyone can check up on us when they want. Plus we want to be cool like our new baby cousin, Summer. Since my baby brother, Cameron is just 1 year old, I think I should be in charge of the blog since I'm 7. This is Madison by the way. Cameron would just say "whassat" over and over again, so I'll make it much more interesting.

Mommy will do her best to keep it updated, but hopefully daddy will help too..

We'll start with me of course, here is a picture of me at my horse riding lesson. Her name is Lena and she is a very nice horse to ride. But I am fearless at the young age 7, unlike mommy and daddy, who are taking lessons too. Cameron is too little to ride, but he likes watching.
