Finally an update!

I am such a slacker when it comes to updating this thing. I guess it just goes to show that we are a busy little family!
Last weekend we went to an apple orchard in Northern Georgia. We had a wonderful time! Mady liked looking at the animals and running through the apple trees. It was so funny to hear her say "apple," which comes out more like "papple." But she's learning so many new words and trying to get them right. She's pretty darn cute if I do say so my self.

Last weekend, Madelyn and I were able to fly up to Michigan for a long weekend with my parents. We flew in on Thursday and just got home this afternoon. It was nice to have a long weekend (thanks, gov't job for Colombus day off!) and see some friends and family. The purpose of the trip was to see my cousin, Melanie, before she heads off to be a missionary in Indonesia. We were able to take in Artprize in downtown Grand Rapids and even have a girls night with pizza and watched the movie "Baby Mama!" which is hilarious!


Matt's mom got married in Florida last week and had a reception at their house on Sunday. I brought Madelyn over there and she was able to run around and see a bunch of people who haven't seen her for awhile.


Today, Monday, we grabbed a direct flight and arrived in Atlanta around 2pm. Of course when Matt met us at the airport, Mady went crazy! She definitely knows when daddy isn't around (he couldn't go to Michigan this time) and loves to see him when he gets back.


I guess that's all. I'll close with some pictures, but will have more later when I get them from mom and Melanie!

Family photo time! Not too sure what Mady was doing but oh well! The background is beautiful!


Madelyn liked picking the apples all by her self. She kept saying, "papple!"


Right by the cow.... she wasn't too sure about this one!
