It's Been A While...

Madison has already been out of school for over a week now! I took some pictures, and some video of the closing program, but I haven't taken time to share. I was so proud of Madison on the evening of the program! She sang, recited three different pledges, and really seemed to enjoy herself. Oh how I'd love to stop time, and make these sweet, innocent days last longer for her!

Until I get the video of the program uploaded, and ready to share, I'll just share the photo above of Madison sitting on stage. Isn't she a cutie?

Little Miss Madison has been enjoying her summer days! In just the past week, she's been to the library, a t-ball game, played at Caden's house, had Caden and some friends over to her house, and swam in her pool twice! You go Madison!

Dancing With The Stars...No, With E-pa!

Granddaughter, Madison, loves to dance! She loves to sing, too, but that's a post for another day!

I'm told that she and her daddy have been known to dance in their living room at night, with dolls lined up on the couch, as their judges. I've never witnessed this, but I'd love to be a fly on the wall some evening when it's taking place!


A few weeks ago, Madison was over at our house visiting one evening. My husband and I were in the middle of watching "Survivor, Redemption Island", but Madison was in a dancing mood.

Madison talked "E-pa" into dancing with her during the commercial breaks! It's one of the things that makes me love my husband so much. He's never too tired, or two busy to say "no".

The two of them whirled and twirled together while the commercials played. Meanwhile, I sat on the couch and took pictures! At the end of the commercial breaks, the two of them sat down and watched "Survivor", while "E" caught his breath! During the next commercial, the two were back up dancing again!

This was one of those sweet, priceless moments, and, fortunately, I was able to capture it in photos. A grandfather sharing a dance--or two--with his granddaughter. I just had to share...

I also think the lovely couple deserves a "10"! What do you think?
