Madison and Karter were big helpers. Notice all the decorations in the same spot. I stayed up after they went to bed and fixed it. We think it turned out pretty cute

Madison Turns 7!!
This past Saturday we had a birthday party for Madison. Her birthday was actually on Monday the 7th but in order to get the family together we had it on Saturday. It turned out to be so much fun. We ate pizza and lasagne, decorated cookies, opened presents and ate a delicious ice cream cake coutresy of Dairy Queen. Everything was delicious and everyone had a great time. I still cant believe that Madison is 7!!! She has grown up so fast. She is a such a sweet well mannered little girl. She loves school and she cant hold still to save her life:) We sure do love her!!!
Karter enjoying some cake:) for some reason Karter decided to be the red power ranger for the party!!
Madison after Laci shoved her head in her cake. Laci always shoves the kid's faces in their birthday cakes. They love it. The funny thing about Madison's cake is it was made of ice cream so it was really hard. Her head just bounced off the cake.

Blowing out her candles
Her pretty cake!! We were going to do a Candyland cake but I didnt think that all the candy on top of the cake would taste very good so we just got this one from Dairy Queen. They did a great job and she loved it so that was all that mattered
She recruited her two friends that came to her party as her "present helpers"
After opening her Nintendo DS from mom and dad. Her reaction was priceless. Needless to say she loved ALL of her presents

Turkey Day
We had a great Thanksgiving. I of course didnt get any pictures but we did end up having a great day. We started out the day in Kanab at Kris's moms house. We hung our for a few hours and the kids snacked on some food and played some games. After that we went to Grandma Ramsay's house. She had just gotten out of the hospital a few days before so Kris's dad came up to hang out and cook for her. We enjoyed visiting with them and Grandma Ramsay was doing really well for just having surgery so we were happy to see her.
After we were done visiting with everyone in Kanab we headed to Orderville to spend the afternoon with my family. My Grandma Karen cooked our family a yummy dinner. Let me just say how nice it is to see both of our families on holidays. We LOVE it!! The kids had fun playing with my niece and nephew. Kris and I had to work the next day so we drove home that night. Let me just tell you how bummed I was that Kris had to work. I look forward to Black Friday more than the actual Thanksgiving dinner. Unfortunately he had to work really early in the morning so I missed out cause there was no way I was going to drag my kids out in the craziness. We both had Saturday off so we spent the day putting up our Christmas lights and just hanging out as a family. Then on Sunday Kris cooked his first turkey while I was at work and it was delicious. He did such a good job. And that pretty much sums up our Turkey day and weekend:) Hopefully next year we will have some more time off so we can enjoy it a little more. Sorry I have no pics. I was a huge slacker but there will be pics to come of Madison's 7th B-day party soon so stay tuned....
