Doubly Blessed

So not only is today Canadian Thanksgiving of which I have much to be grateful for...but the thing I am most grateful for is celebrating her 4th birthday! Happy Birthday Madison Rose! I can't believe how quickly time flies. We had Thanksgiving dinner on Saturday-so today we did a little shopping, had her favorite waffles for dinner and then we had chocolate cake with white frosting and sprinkles on top.

Opening High School Musical 1 (I am SOOOO excited to have another HSM so I don't have to watch HSM 2 over and over-- day in and day out!)

She also received her very own DS from Grandma (thanks Grandma), lots of clothes, cool books (thanks Uncle Al & Aunt Cindy), paint that can be used on windows but is "supposed to wash off with a paper towel" (THANKSSSS Uncle Jon!) and of course Sharpay from HSM that sings. We love you baby girl!

New Shoes!!

Madison's grandma just returned from Utah and with that came many presents! Some of which included a few new pair of shoes. It's really sad when your 3 year old has more shoes than you have ever owned in your lifetime!

Amazing Race

I work for 2 AWESOME companies....granted I'm prejudice with one, but I couldn't ask for better employers.
Every year ComFree has an amazing race as a team building event for all the employees. The first year we went to Banff for a weekend. Last year we went to Golden, British Columbia and this year we went around Edmonton and ended up at Pigeon Lake. What a fun time! My team came in 2nd AGAIN for the 2nd year in a row. One of these days we will get it right.

My Awesome team!

1st day of Preschool

I thought the first day of preschool would be really hard, but I think Peter had a harder time with it than I did. I'm so excited for her to learn and grow-but Peter insists she is still a baby. I can't wait to see what he does when her 1st date picks her up. Madison started preschool Monday at the same elementary Peter went to school. It was really strange for him to see that not too much has changed since he was there...




(Yes she has on a coat and long pants..she would have on boots but I haven't dug them out of the winter box yet)

Pics from Utah

I'm awful! Things have been really crazy and I admit I've been a bit lazy. Madison and I were so lucky to go down to Utah in July and see the newest edition to Brittany's family. Brinley is so cute and I'm still awaiting pics from Brittany! Here are some pictures of our trip.


Madison was so brave and LOVED swimming at Grandpa Henrie's pool.


Madison with her cousins...Dylan, Dade and Dayson

I'm not sure how I was talked into the following pictures happening but I was....my little girl got her 1st "real" haircut-not just a trim, but a good 4-5 inches taken off. I couldn't watch...
Here is where I have to leave


Doesn't she look so grown up?? She's only 3!You did a good job though Aunt Jo.

I love to see the Temple...

I've been so bad at this lately-but I had a blast in Utah and will post some pictures within a few days. But I wanted to post Madison's latest saying because it is so cute and I don't want to forget. She LOVES to sing and her new favorite song is "I Love to see the Temple"...and the words she sings along is "For the Temple is a house of God, a place for sleeping beauty. I'll prepare myself while I am young this is my secret duty." I Love this little girl!
