Back to School Breakfast!




















I think we started a new tradition! I grabbed a few things I had around the house, decorated our breakfast table, and had some special back to school prizes! We had such a fun morning getting ready for Maddie's first day of school this year! We had a special back to school breakfast with Maddie, Mommy & Mimi! (Daddy & Poppa were already at work). Maddie was very excited to go back to school! She had a great first day! The first thing she told me when I picked her up, "Mommy, I made some new friends!" We are so thankful that she goes to such a great preschool! Since, she is attending the same school, with different teachers she was super excited to see some of the same kids that were in her class last year as well as some new ones! What a fun year it will be!

Cooking Crayons!








Maddie and I decided to make a special treat to share with her friends & teachers on the first day of school! We made chocolate covered pretzels, wrapped them with crayon wrappers, and put them in a crayon box. Though, we are no Martha Stewart, they turned out cute nonetheless!

Rodeo!












Ever since I started dating Dustin, we have been making a trip back to Phillipsburg to "Kansas' Biggest Rodeo." And, Maddie has gone since she was 1. She loves to get to spend time with her cousins, watch the parade, and of course go to the rodeo. This year, Maddie was big enough to do Mutton Bustin'. They let everyone sign up, but then only draw 25 names to actually do it. Maddie's name was drawn! However, regardless of the "practice riding" she has been doing with her daddy, she didn't want to get on the sheep. Maybe next year :-). Regardless, she still had lots of fun!
