Daddy and Madelyn Put Up a Birdfeeder

First, you need Daddy and Madelyn and a nice day.

Second, you need birdseed and a squirrel-proof birdfeeder.

Third, "you need to let me do it."

Fourth, you need to pick a nice spot on the tree to hang the birdfeeder.

Fifth, you need to clean up Daddy's mess.

2008 Daddy & Daughter Sweetheart Tea




Madelyn loved dressing up for the annual Sweetheart Tea where she got to play with other girls in dresses, make Valentine's Day crafts, eat lots of yummy treats, and create a fun memory with Dad.

February Thunderstorms



Madelyn just had to check out the lightning, thunder, and rain on this unseasonably warm evening.

Little Miss Muffins





Of course, making and baking muffins is some great mother-daughter quality time. But baking while wearing a bridesmaid's dress is extra special. Makes me think she might become some sort of mini-Martha Stewart or maybe she's a Stepford kid. I don't know. But I'm glad I took some pictures. --J.
