Coldplay

What an amazing show! We were in the very top of the nosebleed section at the Amway theatre in Orlando (which is huge!) but had a great view of the light show and screens so we were perfectly happy. Midway through they came out into the audience and played from the crowd. Everyone let Maddy go to the front (I think she was the youngest person there) and I followed so we ended up about 20 feet away for two whole songs. It was completely amazing! The set included all of their crowd pleasers and tons and tons of confetti in the shape of butterflies! We stayed in a great hotel and spent the next day in downtown Orlando. All in all a perfect weekend!

Here's a first....!

Happy Halloween

We are so excited about Halloween being on a Friday this year. No work/school the next day! We had Maddy's dance party last week (Maddy and Mya are on the right) and carved the pumpkins tonight. Mike made his traditional pumpkin seeds and we've all eaten way too many! Looking forward to the big night tomorrow...Happy Halloween!

Maddy and Sabrina

It's still hot here so for now we're making the most of it (although to be honest I can't wait to get my sweaters and boots out). Maddy had a great time at the pool a couple of weeks ago with Sabrina. They are too cute together!



The other day Maddy called me on the way home from work and asked me to pick up Micky D's which she'd only had the night before. I said "Madison - if I get you McDonalds again, you'll get rickets." She said "I don't want those - I want Chicken Nuggets"...adorable...

Maddy's New Hang Out Room

We finally got done decorating Maddy's 'Hang Out Room' as she calls it. She wanted somewhere that she can play with her BFFFLs (Best Friends Forever For Life) in privacy. Yes - she's growing into a teenager. God help us...
