Happy birthday Maddison!!!

Yea, I'm almost a week late, but guess what? SHE'S STILL 12!!!!! haha!!! That's right, my baby girl turned 12 last week. It's so fun!!! She's so responsible and mature. She had a situation the day before her birthday that she stood up to some friends and did what was RIGHT even though it wasn't the popular thing to do. We are so proud of her. She proved how strong she can be when faced with a dangerous and uncomfortable situation. To say we showered her with praise is an understatement!!!

I found some pictures that I hadn't scanned yet from when Maddison was younger. I had to put them on here. She is such a sweetheart!!! We love her so much.




To celebrate her birthday, she invited some friends to go to Anti-Gravity Arena for a couple of hours. It's a really fun place with wall to wall trampolines and inflatables.

Cambelle playing dodge ball. Don't let the grin fool you. That girl is COMPETITIVE!!!!

Harper was chillin' as usual!!!

And the birthday girl having a blast!!!

Then we went back to our house for cake and ice cream!!! Of all the cakes she knew that Randy would make for her, she simply wanted a big heart and the number 12 with blue and purple frosting!!! So, that's what she got!!!

It was a great party and a great birthday!!!

She gets to go to the weekly Young Women activity tonight for the first time and I am so excited for her!!! She is becoming such a beautiful young woman and we couldn't be more happy!!!

WE LOVE YOU TO PIECES, SWEET MADDISON!!!! THANK YOU FOR CHOOSING US TO BE YOUR PARENTS.
YOU HAVE BLESSED US ETERNALLY!!!
