Madi's 1st Soccer Game!!

Well, Madisyn had her first soccer game of the season. She's on a new team and apparently the new team is good for her. She scored 8 points!! She was an animal! We were so proud of her!!
Here are some of her 1st practice...

We like her team so much better this year. None of the girls were fighting and it seems like a group of girls that will actually be friends at the end of the season.
Gage had a good time watching..


Getting ready before the big game...Eyin' the other girls



Here's Dad bribing her with prizes for scores....1 score = an ice cream, 2 scores= McDonalds trip, 3 scores= a new Vtech game, 4 scores, etc. I bet he chills with the prizes next week. Who knew she'd be so good?!?!


"Goooo, Butterflies!!"

Watch out ref...I don't think she's going to stop for you!!!


...and she's off!! We were impressed how fast she is this year!!



Look at that side kick move!! She looks like a little athlete!


Halftime break with her cheering crowd...Daddy, Tango, Sherri, Robbye, and of course me!



Half time break pep talk from the coach



Robbye and Gage
Coming down the field again
...Then she turned the ball around to get closer to the goal
Here she comes for another score
...and she turns to ask me, "and how many is that, Mom?"
It was "Number 8" I tell her.
Here she comes through the victory line!!!!
What a proud daddy!!

Easter!!!

I'm sorry this is a little late coming...but here are our Easter pictures from this year...


We met Evan's parents in Olney, Texas to spend the weekend with Evan's grandmother.
Madisyn and Grande died Easter eggs together


On Easter eve??...Grammie and Grande hid some glow-in-the-dark eggs. Madi had a good time looking for those....about six times. She'd find them, then make them hide them again. I bet they were exahusted when we left.



Here are the pictures of Madi hunting Easter eggs...

It was chilly outside, so it was a quick hunt.
I didn't know rabbits laid eggs.?? Who knew???
Look what I can do!! Madi was pretty impressed with Daddy's skills. When she tried doing it, eggs went everywhere. He MUST be magic!
He can fit the WHOLE egg in his mouth. Aren't you proud, mom??
After they hunted eggs inside, Madi had Grammie and Grande hide the eggs again and again inside the house.

Here are some of the pictures that I took of family and some of Tango and the chicken that kept attacking him...
Madi and her loot.
This chicken did the "Chicken Dance", so Madi had to show Tango how to do it...
Tango and Mamoo...
Mamoo and the kids...
Grande and the kids..
Grammie playing with Tango...
Here are some just cool pictures that I took of the kids there at Mamoo's house....
This is with an antique mirror of Mamoo's...that made it even neater..(Is that a word...neater?)
I took these pictures after we got home. Couldn't take too many of Madisyn...she got pretty sick. So we'll have to take her's maybe this weekend.
