I am so blessed

They knew I was taking these, so Madison started posing. They were watching a 2 minute Tinker Bell clip on Disney and asked Randy to rewind it about 5 times. (until he had had all he could handle of Tinker Bell and said no more!) These pictures are straight out of the camera. I didn't feel like editing them at all, so they are somewhat rough. Anyway, I was just happy to have gotten out my camera.

Miss Madison posing for the camera.

This is a little foot stool the girls have adopted. They will eat dinner on it, dessert, sit on it, a lot of standing on it, make believe trains and so much more.

Love this. This one will get cropped and probably changed to many other colors (IE b&w, sepia, antique, etc)

This one definitely has potential also. Don't you wish you had hair like that? I sure do.

poor girl has my lips...Chapped all the time. I guess that is what happens when you are a thumb sucker!

Whatever was said can't be good, look at Madison's face!
We actually had a pretty fun day. We went to church and then to the mall (daddy needed a haircut), and didn't spend any money, out to lunch (my favorite, Panera) and then we came home and ALL took a nap and then we had a snowball fight in the family room. I guess that is when I should have gotten out my camera, but I was too busy dodging the snowballs. What, you are wondering how that works in the family room... The Sunday paper of course. We took each page of the paper and crumpled it up. It was an instant snowball fight with at least an hour of entertainment. Then we made a mini scrapbook from my bag of tricks (I think it was from my sister. It was Dora and they could color and put stickers on paper an tape them to a book. Viola, another hour of entertainment) It is always a great sound to hear your children laughing and knowing that they are having a good time with you as a family. I am sure they won't remember it, but it is a nice little memory I will tuck into cyberspace for safe keeping! I really am so blessed.

Such beautiful girls! I'm glad you had a fun day. I can't believe they actually will do any event for AN HOUR. I always THINK it will take an hour and 6 minutes later our activity is over and the whining has commenced! You DEFINITELY are blessed! :)

Sweet, Sweet, Sweet!

Just little beauties. I do love the the sweet expressions coming from Cait's innocence and Madison just looks happy and content all of the time.

You are most certainly blessed. It sounds like everyone had an enjoyable day! Good job, Mom!
