A Quote From Skyler D.

Oh how we love our Skyler D.  Its amazing some of the things that she comes up with.

A few weeks ago, Tony and I were out riding bikes while the girls were drawing on the driveway with chalk.  Anyway, Maddie was telling Skyler the many people that she wanted to marry someday. Of course one was her father. During that time Skyler did not say much concerning the subject, so I asked her who she wanted to marry.

Skyler's response was a sigh at first and then she said " I don't know, but I have lots of options" Tony and I laughed so hard.  I am truly happy that she feels that way.....  You are a smart cookie Skyler D.

Maddie's 4th Birthday

Wow! What a fun day!

Maddie had a great time at her birthday party, playing lots of fun outdoor games with all of her friends.  I cannot believe she is already 4 years old. Slow down Maddie you are growing to fast!
 

Grandma and Skyler Quilt

Skyler had so much fun making a quilt with her Grandma over the summer.  She picked out all the fabric herself and with the help of her Grandma they arranged the pieces to make a beautiful quilt.  After a few days Skyler said her foot got tired of pressing the pedal on the sewing machine.

Thank you Mom!  Skyler will always remember making this quilt with you.

Camping with the Coble's

We had a blast on our camping trip with the Coble family and can't wait to go again real soon. 7 people, one mini-van, two tents and not enough alcohol!  Just Kidding!!

Skyler and Maddie had so much fun playing with their friends around the campsite. Roasting marshmallows and feeding the ducks are just a few of the things they did that weekend.

Welcome to Skyler and Maddies Blog Spot

I am a new blogger so please bare with me....  Even though you all think I am computer savvy its not true.  I may spend a lot of time on the computer but it is all work and no play!!

So here we go....

Skyler D. who is as lovely as can be is in 1st grade now. Where has the time gone...  She loves school thank goodness and so far likes doing her homework (unlike her father when he was her age). She has two best friends Abby who used to live next door to us in our old house and Emma who lives across the street. She takes ballet and tap again and is loving every minute of it.  When I peak through the window of her classroom she is prancing in front of the mirror like a little princess.  Skyler wants to take violin lessons desperately but I told her maybe when she is older.  Thats all for now on Skyler D. now it's her sisters turn.

Well, before I begin with Maddie AGAIN, I have learned my first lesson of being a new blogger. Save Save Save.  I just spent ten minutes writing about Maddie and in a flash it was gone.  No fair on my first time....

Madison Grace with the beautiful face.... That is what we call her around here. Oh how we love our Maddie.  She is still in preschool only three days a week 3 hours a day.  That way she can have her Mommy time on Tuesdays and have her Grandma time on Wednesday to Thursday so I can work.  Maddie has many little friends but Lily is her best friend.  I love to watch them when they first see each other.  They run towards one another so fast that they practically knock each other over and hug like crazy. It is too cute!!  Maddie's other best bud is Carson who lives across the street.  Carson is all boy for sure.  Tony and I worry about the day he knocks on the door to take Maddie out on a date!  Like her big sis, Maddie is taking ballet as well.  I wasn't sure how well that was going to go over since Maddie is much more rough and tumble than a dancing princess.  But to my surprise she loves every minute of it.  In fact every week she has a tantrum the last 1/2 hour of Skyler and Emmas tap class because she doesn't understand why her class has ended and their class is still in session.  

Well, that is it for now.  I do not know how often I will update, I will try to update as often as I change my sheets.  That's usually once a week for those of you that do not know me well enough. :-)
