Madalyn turns 10!





I woke up and couldn't believe that my baby girl was suddenly ten years old. It seems like yesterday when everyone was up at the hospital lined up against the wall listening for her for to come in to the world. She is such a beautiful, smart, talented, fun and amazing girl. We are so blessed to have her in our lives.

We did everything to make her day special including Jeff and I waking her up together with a cupcake and singing Happy Birthday to her. (We started doing this years ago and I have no idea why, but she loves it so we keep doing it.) Madalyn had planned her birthday outfit for at least a month and I love her fashionista senses. Well, I love her confidence to pull that off! She went to school where I brought both Dual Language classes cupcakes, so she got sang to two more times. She got her report card and made all A's. Then she and Anna tried out for Showcats and made the team for the performance group at school. We got a Chillabration cake from Dairy Queen, which they are obsessed with for some reason, and headed home. She did her homework and had to ride her bike since the weather was decent. We ate dinner with Mom, Dad, Cody and Marcia then opened gifts. She got a cool HSM book, cash, a look-alike Belle dress for her American Girl doll made by my mom, the Fame DVD, and Taylor Swift tickets that brought on the tears in picture above. We played some Wii, ate the cake, sang again, and then it was off to bed. She was sad for the day to be over, but as happy as can be.
