Summer highlights 2009

Riding the Dragon Express at Lagoon with Daddy. This ride spins forward really quickly and then stops and goes backwards. Madison has a big grin on her face during the entire ride.

She always wants to ride the dog on the Merry go Round. If she doesn't get the dog she says "all the kids are mean", because someone else other than her gets to ride it. The self centered world of a 2 year old.

Making faces with her cousins Mikey and Tommy (left to right)

We visited the aquarium with Emily and Tommy and her favorite thing to do at the aquarium, in spite of looking at fish, sharks, & an alligator, was to play on the computer.

A relaxing day of reading....

Madison was really brave this year at the amusement park and started riding the Lady Bug Drop which takes you up into the air about 30 ft and then drops you. Here she is with her cousin Morgan as they drop.
