Gingerbread House

Madison built her first gingerbread house and she did a great job...but I think she enjoyed snacking on it the most! ;)

Professional Christmas pictures

Here are Madison's Christmas pictures. It was a "fun" experience. She was tired and hungry and there were a ton of people there. She didn't want to smile and wanted to be held most of the time. We did manage to get some good ones...and she did start warming up after we bribed her with some whoppers. Just a shame we didn't think of that before the photo shoot began! ;) HE HE

Snow in Mississippi

Well we are no stranger to snow...but it was strange to get it all the way down here in Mississippi. It was a wonderful surprise and I am so glad that Madison got to really play in it since she was so young in Wisconsin. Seeing the snow did make us miss Wisconsin but it is nice being in a place where you can have a day of snow and then a few days later it is in the 70's! ;)

Christmas in Canton

The day after Thanksgiving we went to Canton for their annual Christmas event. We all had a wonderful time but we were missing Danny (who was in Auburn at the Iron Bowl). Madison got to ride the carousel and a buggy being pulled by a horse. She even got to see Santa...even though she wasn't happy about it.

Black Friday

Here is Madison reading up on all of the Black Friday sales. We didn't go this year...but if she is already learning to scope out the deals - what are Mommy and Daddy in for?! ;)

Leaves

There have been a ton of leaves falling lately so Madison and I went out front and raked some into a pile. She had fun raking them but more fun playing with the pile when we were done.

Happy Thanksgiving

We all had a wonderful Thanksgiving. We went outside and Madison found a football. I guess that is a typical family tradition to play football out in the yard during Thanksgiving. I thought I was taking pictures of Madison playing with the football but I was really taking videos - so enjoy. ;)
