The Best Grandpa

Madison had the best time at my moms yesterday, she talked grandpa into letting her paint HIS fingernails AND toenails. He siad "OK if i can paint yours, you can paint mine" so this is what i came home from work to find. I might be in trouble for putting these on here, but if you don't tell him he will never know, Right?? He is so good to our family and he obviously will do whatever Madi wants. My mom had him convinced that she had no finger nail polish remover in the house and he about freaked. What a good sport. Gregg you are awesome and i totally think that bright red is your color. He seems so proud to show off his nails in this picture.

Movie night

So yesterday I took Jake and Madison to see High School Musical. My sister and her girls came with us and we had a good time. I didn't capture any pictures but i thought i would just write and say that without seeing the first two shows i still really enjoyed the movie. I was wondering if i am too old to have a crush on "Troy"??. I love watching people that can sing or dance and if you can do both, then that's even better. The girls LOVED the movie and i would even say Jake enjoyed himself but i think he liked the popcorn more.

Drummer Girl

Oh my Gosh! Look at Madison. She has it in her head that she wants to play the drums. She use to use everything as a "drum" until about a month ago my step.dad found a drum set on KSL and bought it. Gregg has played the drums since he was in the 7th grade, so once someone mentioned wanting to learn he jumped on the excuse to buy some. We go down to the shop and let her bang away. He tried to teach her a basic song but she just goes to town and bangs away at them. It will be really awesome if she keeps it up and can play them one day.
Madison and her grandpa Gregg. Learning a few things on the drums.

She is the happiest little girl when she knows we get to hang out with grandpa and play the drums. Thanks Gregg for making Madi so happy. Your pretty awesome at them yourself!!

My little girl is growing up!

So Madison had her kindergarten school yearbook pictures yesterday and she just looked so grown up. Aunt Kaycee did her hair for me cause i just can't do hair cute. All those pumpkins are now in the garbage but Brayden had to spray paint one for fun i guess.
I just wanted to get a couple shots before school and look at these poses. You don't think she has been asked to smile for the camera before do you.

What a ham. It's always cute for a 5 year old to have confidence, i think but i am afraid for her to be even 8. She really did feel "so cute" as she said, when Kaycee did her all up Pretty. Thank you Kaycee! What would I ever do without you!!!!???


Grandpa and Madi

This is my dad who I love so much. You can't tell in this picture but Madison has her nose covered in frosting. My dad is known for "trying" to get you to smell something and then when you do, he puts your nose into it. Well no one falls for it anymore but i guess Madison has not learned yet! That or she just does whatever grandpa asks her to do. Madison has 3 grandpas that she just loves and adores so much. I am pretty sure she can get whatever she wants from any of them. I love you dad! Thanks for coming over on Halloween and taking the kids around the neighborhood. Ronda your dinner was delicious as usual and it was fun to visit.

Halloween Fun

Ok first of all, these pictures look lile poo because my digital was not working so this disposable camera i had didn't turn out all that well. I can't complain too much since i was the one that developed them tonight though right? This is the kids with Marianne and Cindy.
This is Madison in her Gorilla suit, which was Brayden's a few years back. I wish you could see her face a little better but i took this photo thinking of you Kristy and Deanna. Hope you like it.


This is us again at Madi's kindergarten class Halloween party. They sang a bunch of cute songs and told jokes. Can you spot my little monkey in this pic?

This picture doesn't look good but this is Madison and her whole class and their teacher. I am so bumbed they don't look good. What did we ever do without digital when we could check the picture out to make sure we got a good one.



A nice room mom came and told the kids that she was a witch and that she made this potion out of crushed bones, blood, and dragon's breathe. All the kids had a turn at stirring the potion.
