First..... Before we left for Idaho we had to take a picture with Elder Brooks just in case he was transferred while we were gone. He is such a great missionary and we will miss him a lot when he goes home next month. Madison just wanted to look at him during the pictures!!!
Now to Christmas........
This was Christmas at our house before we ran to the airport. If we started the presents Madison could finish it off, but it took a LONG time!
She got a Hungry Hungry Hippo Game and Battleship... I know, I know she was on 6 months but they were free and she could care less!
HOME FOR THE HOLIDAYS!!
We were in Idaho from Dec 22 - Jan 10. It was great fun!
 |
| We learned Madison is the fan of the piano! |
 |
| Guess this was what she wanted for Christmas! |
 |
| Madie was SO cute opening her presents! She sat there loving that everyone was looking at her and just squeezing the bow! |
 |
| When she finally tore it and everyone cheered and clapped she got SO excited! She put her hands into fists and squealed! |
 |
| Madison got to meet her 2nd cousin Lydia while we were home. They were SO cute together,; as you can see Madison is super excited about it!!!! Lydia is 12 months and Madison is 6 months and they are the same size! |
 |
| Madison woke us all up for Christmas at 5 in the morning! Stayed awake for all her presents to get open then passed back out!! |
 |
| Grandpa teaching her to use her new phone! |
 |
| That's my baby alright!!! She'll be dribbling before she's walking! |
 |
Two Proud Daddys!!!!
We spent two different days with Mike and Amanda! They were nice enough to have there baby three weeks early just so we could meet her!!! Chloe Marie is beautiful and their parents have already decided they will be best friends! |
 |
| Madison pulled the blanket over her face and couldn't figure out what was wrong. When we play peek-a-boo she can pull the blanket that way and it comes right off....this time that wasn't working! :) |
 |
| She had just woken up and still wanted some cuddle time! |
 |
| My uncle Paul took this at my Aunt's Wedding! I love it! |
 |
| Lucy and Jordin jammin' out!! |

| She's never had Sprite before, but she knew what she was supposed to do with the can! |
 |
| Eatin lunch at the airport like a big girl! |

| Chilllin with Dad in Denver! |
In this video Madison is making herself rock!!
We had a wonderful time with family, but man did our own bed feel wonderful!
And Finally to conclude with a VERY embarrassing story....
We had the missionaries over the other night and they asked me to say the prayer before they left. As I was praying I said, "Please bless the missionaries to have.....and instead of saying success.... I said sex. HOW terrible! We were all red faced and laughing! I was even embarrassed when I saw them today at church.
I tried to load a really cute video, but my sister has it on her blog, click
