Madelynn is dedicated to God

On Mother's Day, May 14th, Madelynn was dedicated to God in our Church. She was very excited to be in front of a crowd and loved the attention (don't know where she gets that???) She was the 3rd generation to wear the gown at her dedication. The gown she wore was worn by both her grandmother (yea G!) and me.

My Mother's Day Present

All I wanted for Mother's Day this year was a family picture. Somehow we managed to find time (of course at the One Hour photo), but I got my present! You'll notice that we're all in bare feet. This is when I fractured my foot on Hunter's field trip and had the big black boot. I didn't want it in the picture, so I brought my other shoe...but I couldn't get it on my foot. So the photographer made Charlie and Hunter take off their shoes (Maddy refuses to wear shoes). You'll also notice that Maddy has staked her claim...she's got a tight grip on Hunter's ear.
