Oh The Fun That Was Had

...today while Momma was away. Madison and Dylan bought some face paints and went to town. Is that my daughter or do we now own a kitty? Ha! They had a great time and I got a good laugh! That Madison is always thinking of the best stuff to do! The other day I asked Dylan "What do you want to do today with Madison?" and all on her own she says "Go shopping and get my nails done". Talk about a good laugh!!!!

Bikes, Cousin Jackie, Goats, Chickens, A Pony Ride, And G-Ma Montana

A few weeks ago we headed out to Aunt Liz & Uncle Ben's farm. It was a beautiful summer day and Dylan was very excited to see her cousin Jackson aka "Jackie" and her G-ma Montana (who was visiting). Cousin Jackson has been racing BMX and was showing us some of his moves which of course inspired little missy to show us some of her moves.


Here she is looking very tough with her big helmet and tattoos.



Of course Dad joined in on the fun, which Dylan (and Jackson) were thrilled about.


Then someone got a little tired and tipped over on her bike.

Funny thing was that her helmet was so big that it made for a perfect head rest. If you look closely she's actually playing in the dirt.

Then we were off to check out the goats and chickens. All was grand until d touched the electric fence - ooops!


THEN... Auntie Liz brought out the pony! Oh boy!!!! Cousin Jackson showed Dylan how to brush and get the pony ready for riding. He even jumped on and showed us some of his moves that he learned at horse camp and of course from his mom. Then it was Dylan's turn. Well i guess her big grin from ear to ear tells it all! She LOVED IT! and the fact that G-ma was right by her side. Aunt Liz totally made her day bringing Dewy Pony out - thanks Aunt Liz!

We have a bunch more photos from the day on another camera which we'll get downloaded here one of these days. After the pony ride there was a big old water fight with Dad, Jackson, and Dylan, which was a hoot!

Zipline

The girl has no fear! Before our lovely summer came to a screeching halt we found ourselves at Lincoln park on Dylan new favorite toy, the zipline. Ask her about it sometime as she will go into full detail about it all even the 'bump' at the end. Oh how she loved it!
