BFF's

This is Maddie and her BFF.  They have been inseparable for about 2 years now.  They are 9 months apart, Maddie being the youngest.  They were on the same training team at the old gym and never really hung out.  It wasn't until 2 years ago when her mom and I started talking that they bonded.  They are like little twins.  They are hilarious together.  They have never fought and if they did, they never told us.  Now we need to find Sophie a BFF....

Easter

Easter was different this year. Maddie is in Panama City Beach so the rest of us celebrated. The Easter bunny did visit Thursday because he knew that Maddie was going to be gone. Hope that everyone had a wonderful Easter!

Cute Girl Scout

She did her part selling cookies today at the booth.  She would hit them as they went in and as they went out.  One guy told her that he was only buying cookies because of her.  He said we needed to make sure she was front and center.  She was hilarious telling them to "please buy some cookies" and had sad little eyes. 

Because I needed to get the food off the page

This one is dark, but I love the bridge and sunset in the background.

Here are some pictures from my phone just because I needed to get the delicious Paula Deen buffet food off of the top of the page :). 

Savannah

Maddie had another meet this weekend and it was in Savannah. We always have a good time. We make it a girls trip with my aunt and the girls love it. This year we went to Paula Deen's again, Juliette Low's house and climbed up the Tybee Island lighthouse.. all 178 steps. Can't wait until next year.

We were an hour early for the greening of the fountain.

The girls love their aunt Charlotte.

An update

Almost a month without an update, how shameful... There just hasn't been a lot going on here lately that's been out of the ordinary. We had two gymnastics meets in February and some Girl Scout stuff thrown in for fun, but that's about it. I was lazy and didn't get the girls pictures for Chinese New Year. I wanted to take them to a park and get them, but it's been cold or rainy. I'm going to try soon though. Here are some pictures from this last month. Maddie's gym meet stuff will be posted on her blog shortly.
