Just clowning around...

Alex is so funny packing me around the house. He cracks Madalyne up. LOL 03/01/09

I got my eggs out for Easter. Today I did praying hands all by myself. We were all so proud. Alex did a great job working on this with Madalyne. 03/02/09 YES these are my frog legs. LOL

Uncle Ron comes to see M.E. We play and he put my swing up YES!

Just clowning around with My Alex.

Are those the the pretty legs?

Pop Daddy's surprise party!

We gave PopDaddy a surprise party after working so many years. CSX Transportation 35 years.

We didn't know what Ron was going to talk to PopDaddy about at lunch. Thank goodness it was a surprise party.

We will get you a Louis purse. Never mind we will take you to Meme's house. You can pick from one of hers. If she doesn't give you one just call Uncle Tracy, he loves shopping for purses.

SURPRISE!!!!! Ron was just the bait. But it worked.

PopDaddy we are so glad you are retired. We know the long hours and many days and nights you worked. We appreciate you always working so hard to provide us with so much. We are loved and you're the best! We hope you have many years to enjoy. So come see us, you're off tomorrow. LOL

I would like to say thank you to Yvette and Angie for all the hard work on the wonderful food. We all appreciate you guys making this possible. Betty we loved the video.

Some pictures since the move...

Madalyne loves to play at this bookshelf in her room. She takes every book off and we will sit and read. She doesn't always like to finish the book we are reading so we read some of all the books.

GO VOLS!!!! Madalyne's first UT basketball game. We had a great time. UT vs. Memphis they lost but it was a good close game. She sleep through half the game.

Snuggle bunnies: Alex and Madalyne, my guess they are watching Tom and Jerry. This is a favorite around here.

Madalyne really didn't build this snowman. Alex and the kids in the neighborhood did. We just used it for our pictures. Notice his middle tooth kept falling out. We put it in about 6 times before the picture but it wouldn't stay. Alex and I have really enjoyed the SNOWDAYS. We don't have to wake up early. We bake Daddy cookies.

This is the little snow bunny, Madalyne. She loves to go outside. She doesn't even care if it's cold.

Alex's 11th Birthday Party!

Alexander Ross, Mary Madalyne, Emily Elizabeth, Griffin Pratt, and Sadie Yvette are having a great time at the pool. They had to call rest period for them to stop for our picture.

Happy Birthday to Alex you are sososo Cute.

Look at this handsome boy. He gets it from his Daddy. Okay he does have my dimples. LOL

The guys had a great time. The pool was a nice way for them to cool off after running and playing soccer.

Look at this HOT model: Our very own Rhett William. What a great bachelor, smart, handsome, witty, and tan. Ok PopDaddy seems to be having a great time with Madalyne. As long as there are children around PopDaddy does have fun. LOL

Other favorites

Madalyne's Wubba is as big as she is here. This is still a hot item for her.

We are gearing up to go to the Cabin with everyone in a couple of weeks and we can't wait. We are doing the St. Patrick's Day craft this year. Yvette's already got the color right. Griffin looks like he is having fun painting his egg.

Well this is what she has to say. It's to cold out here.

What are you talking about Dada? You are the only man in my life. Dada is making sure she is serious about that.

Well and Alex but he's my brother. That's it. These pictures are from last year but it's fun to look back and see what changes in a year.

Madalyne's First Birthday Party

M.E. is loving the frog and bunny cake. You can see she is an artist with her food.

She is checking out the gifts, and so are Logan and Alex.

Look Logan, Alex, Madalyne, and Emily are having a big time.

We had a great time celebrating Madalyne's first brithday. We want to thank everyone for coming and being a part of this with us. Madalyne started walking at 12 mos. Running at 13 mos. Alex is awesome to encourage her to walk. Yvette was so helpful with the party. I wanted to thank her for all the hard work and help. I really appreciated all she did.

WOW Madalyne... the days have gone by fast and you are such a joy. It's hard to believe you are one. We all love you so much! You are so funny, sweet, loving, and a mess. We love every part. You have your Daddy's big blue eyes and your MomE's personality. Madalyne's favorite word is DADA! She gets excited from head to toe when she sees Alex.
