Catching up

Where do people find the time to maintain these blogs!! Honestly, when I get on the computer the time just melts away and before you know it, you've been sitting here for 3 hours and haven't accomplished a thing. Part of my problem is that I've been cursed with a slow gene. I've noticed that it takes others half the time that it takes me to finish a particular task. This doesn't happen every day otherwise I'd probably be fired from my jobs.... work, mother, housekeeper, maddie's slave... you know, but ya.... that's just how it is. At this point in my life, I've learned to just accept it. Unfortunately, I've passed this on to Maddie. Hopefully, this curse lessens with each generation??? Did I also mention that I'm a procrastinator? This doesn't help my cause.

So Anyway, September was fun and busy!! We started out with our local harvest celebration. Maddie got to ride on the Cheerleader's float thanks to mini cheer camp.

At the beginning of the parade (notice Maddie is smiling)

At the end of the parade (notice Maddie has had enough)

Later that evening we went to the carnival.

The next weekend Grandpa Dave and Grandma Barbara came for a visit to watch the girls at halftime, help Blake with his garage and hang out with Dani for her birthday barbecue.

Dani's Birthday.

Ash took a ton of pictures so I tried to get as many as I could... they were all cute :) This was Dani's big 2 - 1. Holy cow, I can't believe she's that old!! I can say that because I have about 20 years on her.
