Happy 4th Birthday Madison

Maddie turned 4 on the 28th of October. She is growing so fast and is becoming such a beautiful little girl. On her birthday spent the morning at Paint, Paper, Scissors so she and Jacob could make some projects. We went with a bunch of friends and they made some great pictures and even got to decorate pumpkins. I didn't get any pics because watching all three of them around lots of glue and paint was difficult all in itself...didn't have a free second to get the camera out. Then we went to daddy's work for a nice dinner together and headed off to church for awana's. We celebrated her birthday as a family at Chuck E Cheese last night and Maddie had a great time. We had pizza, cake, presents and lots of games! I think she felt special and had a nice time.

Feeding the pony

This weekend we tooka trip tot he pumpkin patch. It was out in the country on an apple orchard farm. They had hay rides, a petting zoo, apple deserts, lots and lots of pumpkins, and many other things for the kids to explore. We had a wonderful time. Maddie and Jacob ran around for 2 1/2 hours straight until they couldn't even walk anymore. We ended with some cold apple cider and a carmel apple that were unbelievable. Jacob got bit by a turkey and had a chunk taken out of his hand. Maddie got stung by a bee while holding her sweet apple cider. And Caden got to lay in pile of pumpkins for the first time. It was a memorable and fun day.
