Third Birthday Celebrations Begin... On Saturday, Sept. 1, we had officially started celebrating Maddy's 3rd birthday with a party with friends and grandma/pappy. The party also revealed Maddy's big birthday surprise this year... her own castle bounce house! Here are some pics from the big day...

First trip to Kiddieland

Although Maddy visited Kennywood once before, she was just a wee little bean (too small to go on much except the train and merry-go-round). This summer, big girl came to ride! We started slow with the kiddie turtles and worked our way up to the little motorcycles, whip, swings and even flying elephants! Here's a few shots of her precious, happy moments.

More Summertime Fun

Here are some more summertime funtime photos with Maddy, taken at the Boalsburg People's Choice Arts Festival. The animals really flocked to her sweet scent at the petting zoo! She also loved riding the train with Daddy and jumping high in the bounce house. To see more photos, click here.

Happy Fourth of July ~ 2012

This year, Maddy celebrated the Fourth with her family up in Buffalo. She had a wonderful time swimming, running, and playing her little patriotic heart out! It was really hot this year, but that didn't slow anybody down...

More Early Summer Fun...
