Bike riding!

Jason bought Madison and I a bike trailer yesterday, so we put it to some use this morning! We got out this morning before it got too hot outside and went for about a 25 minute ride. And let me (and my legs) tell you that you can tell you are pulling 30 pounds behind you! It's good though, it gives me more of a workout. And Madison absolutely loved it! She laughed and giggled for about the first few minutes, and then the rest of the time she went back and forth singing her ABC's and Twinkle Twinkle Little Star. She even kept her helmet on the whole time! I was worried that she would try to pull it off, but she didn't. She such a good girl!

Update

Hey everyone! Just wanted to give a little update and post up a few new pictures. Madison and I are really enjoying our summer off! Unfortunately, Jason is now more busy. He started school last week, so that plus work keeps him busy. He is doing really well though, and I am very proud of him for going back to school.

Madison is doing great. She talks so much now. We're still working on the potty thing. She will tell us after she goes. And she will sit on the potty, but hasn't done anything in it yet. I guess she's just not quite ready yet! I went to Books A Million today and bought her a potty book, and it had a button on it and when you push it it sounds like a toilet flushing. She likes it, so maybe that will help!

She is learning how to drink out of a big girl cup also. I only give one to her when I can be right there with her, so she doesn't make a complete mess. Here's a couple pictures of her drinking from a water bottle. I keep our bottled water on the floor in the pantry, and she will go get one, and bring it to me because she wants to drink out of it!

Here's Madison at Wild Adventure's yesterday. They have this new area for kids (and adults too, I guess) where they keep some of the baby animals for the kids to get close to and pet. They had ducks, chicks, birds, baby goats, and baby deer. The deer in the picture below is only 3 days old!
Anyways, I guess that's it for now. Madison and I will be coming to Panama City next Thursday, the 26th and we'll be there through July 4. We will be going to a couple wedding showers for my sister, Lacey. And just hanging out with family and friends. Can't wait! Jason will come also, but not until July 3.

Jason CCAF Graduation

On Thursday, Jason graduated from the Community College of the Air Force with an Associate in Applied Science Aircraft Armament Systems Technology. He had to transfer all of his credits over, he had to graduate ALS (Airman Leadership School), and he CLEPT his speech class. I'm sorry the pictures are so crappy. Madison and I were at Wild Adventures all morning, so we were in such a hurry trying to get ready to go to the graduation that I forgot my camera! I felt so bad, but I did have my phone so I took a few pictures with that.

He also got the Chief's Group Award for outstanding academic achievement in the Community College of the Air Force. That award came with a $100 check!

Here's a few pictures from our trip to Panama City last weekend. We had a really good time. Madison put on Mommy's running shoes all by herself.

Madison jumping on the trampoline at Nana's house. I think we might have to get her one now!!!


And here's a video of Madison on the trampoline. She loved it, it just took her a little bit to get used to it!

Helen, GA

Hey ya'll! Jason, Madison, and I went to Helen, Georgia this weekend. There was a big VW show there, but we also stayed the night and went out on the town! Helen was beautiful. It' s a little German town, so you know Jason loved it!

Here's what we first saw when we drove into Helen.

Jason, Madison, and I eating dinner at a German resturant!
The one man band! He was actually pretty good!
Jason and I in front of some stores.

We'll be in Panama City this weekend. Hopefully we'll get to see a lot of ya'll. Have a good week!

My Little Star!

Jason, Madison, and I were on our way home from church last Sunday, and Jason and I were just talking back and forth when out of nowhere Madison starts to sing Twinkle Twinkle Little Star. We don't really let her know we're listening because she will stop. But she sang the song the whole way through! Granted she can't say every word, but you could definatley tell what she was singing. I tried to get her on video singing it, but all I could get her to do was the first line. She only does the whole song when she thinks nobody is listening to her. It is so cute! Here's a couple videos.

Reba!!!!!

Lacey and I had the opportunity to see Reba in concert. It was so awesome! We were only 16 rows back, so we could see really well. She puts on a great concert, and we had so much fun. Just a few pics of the Queen of country music:)
