Happy New Year!

Happy New Year!

We celebrated as a family in our PJs!

We made miniature food items: mini burgers, mini hot dogs and mini chicken sandwiches with all the sides!

Madeline and Mommy celebrated with Welch's Sprakling White Grape Juice and Daddy had his Daddy juice.

After dinner and drinks, it was time for Karaoke and dancing!

2011 has been a wonderful year, but we are looking forward to many great times in 2012!

Big Weekend: Friday

Friday Morning, Madeline woke up and got to play with Big Momma before she left town...

 Big Momma was marching with the broom and Madeline thought it was so funny. She got off her car and grabbed the broom and started saying up and down while marching with it.

Waiting in line for Santa.....

Not so sure about him.....

Drum Roll Please......

Fun at the Square Friday night!

 In the picture above, Madeline was trying to wave at me but she was so focused on riding the pony.

 Hot (Warm) Chocolate break....

We have to call it warm chocolate to Madeline. If we call anything Hot... She will say Hot and refuse it, so she had Warm Chocolate at the square.

First Christmas Program

 Great Job, Addison!

Last Thursday, Madeline was in her first Christmas Program. I learned this girl LOVES to perform.  Our little flower wanted back on stage after her class performed.  She kept trying to run back on stage and I would grab her. A lady turned around and said let her go she cannot mess up anything. I held her back, but I considered letting her go back. The stage was chaos, but the play was perfect. At this age, parents just want a photo opt.

I loved watching her interact with her classmates. She looked so big and mature. Big Momma drove up for the performance and her Gran Mommy and Gran Dad joined us too.

We are so proud of you sweet girl! 

Be back soon....

I will be back very soon with a Thanksgiving and New Orleans update. In the meantime, I will leave you with two of Ben's favorite pictures from New Orleans.

I will be back with more updates of Princess Madeline very soon. In the past 2 weeks, we have  been home only 4 nights. We went to Ben's Grandmother's in Tuckerman for Thanksgiving and last week we headed out for New Orleans. We got home yesterday and look forward to not traveling for a couple of weeks!
