Happy Birthday Madeline

Happy 5th Birthday Madeline! Hard to believe you are five, time has gone by so fast. Madeline was very excited to be five, and the first thing she wanted to do was take a shower. She said now that she is five could she take a shower like big people. She also wants to chew gum, because mommy accidently said that when you are five you can chew gum. Mommy wasn't thinking that five was just around the corner! Today we went to Toys R' Us so she could do a little birthday shopping, and then we went out for pizza with Nana and Mackenzie. Madeline is very excited for her brothers arrival, she was hoping that he would come on her birthday, but no such luck. Micah should be here on the 11th, we will keep everyone posted.

President Bush comes to Mission, Texas

On Thursday, August 3rd, President Bush came to Mission, Texas to give a speech. Ron and a couple of guys from work were able to go and sit in the fifth row and listen to President Bush.

Madeline's Birthday Party

Madeline celebrated her fifth birthday party with a few friends at a pottery store called Made By U. Each of the girls were able to pick a piece of pottery and paint it any way they wanted. We also enjoyed a Strawberry Shortcake Cake, which was made by a lady from Church.

Mackenzie painted a turtle, and Madeline painted a unicorn. Each piece of pottery received three coats of paint and then will be placed into an oven and then glazed.

Snake

In the great state of Texas we have many wonderful creatures. This lovely snake was found today as Ron was washing the car. Any ideas what kind it is? And sorry to all the snake lovers, but we killed him.
