Addie has done cheer camp twice with Baylee. The cheerleaders teach them cheers and they perform at a half time show.

This winter we didn't get a ton of snow down in the valley. One Sunday we got enough to make snowmen. I thought we would make one or two. Dan decided to make our whole family. The kids thought it was really cool that we each had our own.</div>Madsen Familyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08070512395887724971noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-955145754191688325.post-12493185692729068792012-05-07T15:42:00.000-06:002012-05-07T15:42:02.159-06:00100th Day of School<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

The first grade classes got to dress up like they were 100 for the 100th day of school. We colored Kyler's hair gray with hair paint. The stuff smelled awful! He washed it out in the sink at school as soon as the parade was over. The kids all looked so cute.</div>Madsen Familyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08070512395887724971noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-955145754191688325.post-76832595958786310302012-04-23T15:41:00.001-06:002012-04-23T15:46:24.475-06:00Vampire Baby<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-C85uwaDROTQ/T5XNSEL2TfI/AAAAAAAAB30/kAr1W9-Lku0/s1600/IMG_1186.jpg" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 299px; height: 400px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-C85uwaDROTQ/T5XNSEL2TfI/AAAAAAAAB30/kAr1W9-Lku0/s400/IMG_1186.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5734715410770972146" /></a><div style="text-align: center;">Stella for the longest time didn't have any front teeth.

It was nice to celebrate the end of an amazing life and the beginning stages of another so close together. As a result of a busy not the best nap week, Stella was kind of a crank. With her being our big eater I thought she would devour the cake. She just picked at it. It was fun to celebrate with family still in town. I can't believe its been a year since we welcomed her into this world. She is a cutie. She is so clingy to me. She cries sometimes even when I am handing her to her dad. She is busy, busy, busy! Crawling and getting into everything. She's a climber. I often find her on to of the kids table. She definitely keeps us on our toes and makes us laugh.

Dan's dad passed away in his home surrounded my family. What an amazing man he was. A veteran who served his country well. After being shot down he was saved by the people of Slovakia. He served a mission in Slovakia after he finished his service to our country. He had such a love for the Slovak people. He always had the most amazing life stories to share. He was a very giving man and he meant the world to Dan. They were buddies. I feel blessed to not only have known him, but that I can call him family. I am grateful Kyler and Addie were able to have a good relationship with him before his mind started to slip. The kids loved him and he loved them. Even when they were a little wild he was always smiling. I know the Lord has much work for him to do. I know he is willing and grateful to be at his Heavenly Father's service. </div>Madsen Familyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08070512395887724971noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-955145754191688325.post-9505769623580227022011-09-20T16:52:00.002-06:002011-09-20T17:04:14.147-06:00Back to School<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-gSdsE3vcg-w/TnkbI2DBjoI/AAAAAAAABxo/VQ-RP789CuE/s1600/DSC_0004.jpg" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 213px; height: 320px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-gSdsE3vcg-w/TnkbI2DBjoI/AAAAAAAABxo/VQ-RP789CuE/s320/DSC_0004.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5654580645901471362" /></a><br /><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-WefYmczYUSw/TnkbImtThyI/AAAAAAAABxg/2tjotLBJt6A/s1600/DSC_0007.jpg" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 213px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-WefYmczYUSw/TnkbImtThyI/AAAAAAAABxg/2tjotLBJt6A/s320/DSC_0007.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5654580641783842594" /></a><br /><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-8QQvrkIJiAc/TnkaijvhAeI/AAAAAAAABxY/16WL9u1jHno/s1600/DSC_0011.jpg" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 213px; height: 320px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-8QQvrkIJiAc/TnkaijvhAeI/AAAAAAAABxY/16WL9u1jHno/s320/DSC_0011.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5654579988152779234" /></a><br /><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-dr-dwouA_gM/TnkaiUZGCyI/AAAAAAAABxQ/rb7hTYAV0cI/s1600/DSC_0029.jpg" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 213px; height: 320px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-dr-dwouA_gM/TnkaiUZGCyI/AAAAAAAABxQ/rb7hTYAV0cI/s320/DSC_0029.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5654579984032205602" /></a><br /><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-fu9wXkd_Ajk/TnkaiJcUUDI/AAAAAAAABxI/lnho36moSas/s1600/DSC_0030.jpg" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 213px; height: 320px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-fu9wXkd_Ajk/TnkaiJcUUDI/AAAAAAAABxI/lnho36moSas/s320/DSC_0030.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5654579981092933682" /></a><br /><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-8yWHbfjOwOo/TnkahekkjjI/AAAAAAAABxA/NGefXt38BpM/s1600/DSC_0033.jpg" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 213px; height: 320px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-8yWHbfjOwOo/TnkahekkjjI/AAAAAAAABxA/NGefXt38BpM/s320/DSC_0033.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5654579969584827954" /></a><div style="text-align: center;">On August 22nd Kyler started 1st grade.

It's so hard to see them growing up so fast. </div>Madsen Familyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08070512395887724971noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-955145754191688325.post-55776655169636461352011-09-16T09:13:00.002-06:002011-09-16T09:27:30.532-06:00San Diego Temple & The Mormon Battalion<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-7QPOe3mPYrI/TnNpMn1DFXI/AAAAAAAABw4/OfntMDMbIHI/s1600/DSC_0120.jpg" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 213px; height: 320px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-7QPOe3mPYrI/TnNpMn1DFXI/AAAAAAAABw4/OfntMDMbIHI/s320/DSC_0120.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5652977622850934130" /></a><br /><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/---nNjPlSgIY/TnNpMZumdZI/AAAAAAAABww/L7sWP9laZHE/s1600/DSC_0121.jpg" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 213px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/---nNjPlSgIY/TnNpMZumdZI/AAAAAAAABww/L7sWP9laZHE/s320/DSC_0121.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5652977619065795986" /></a><br /><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-SLl9jfbaVfs/TnNpL88efWI/AAAAAAAABwo/uMoMEXgsoHw/s1600/DSC_0130.jpg" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 213px; height: 320px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-SLl9jfbaVfs/TnNpL88efWI/AAAAAAAABwo/uMoMEXgsoHw/s320/DSC_0130.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5652977611339365730" /></a><br /><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-JyhIfY7Ts3g/TnNpLqe17vI/AAAAAAAABwg/uHiKAjVV9F0/s1600/DSC_0134.jpg" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 213px; height: 320px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-JyhIfY7Ts3g/TnNpLqe17vI/AAAAAAAABwg/uHiKAjVV9F0/s320/DSC_0134.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5652977606383234802" /></a><br /><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-rrzxfkFdHsQ/TnNpLcc-LLI/AAAAAAAABwY/qQ1vBFAqovk/s1600/DSC_0142.jpg" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 213px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-rrzxfkFdHsQ/TnNpLcc-LLI/AAAAAAAABwY/qQ1vBFAqovk/s320/DSC_0142.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5652977602617289906" /></a><div style="text-align: center;">I finally got to see the San Diego temple in person. Next time my goal is to find a babysitter for my kids so we can go inside. It is such a beautiful temple. After we left the temple grounds we went to the Mormon Battalion historical site. We went and learned about the Latter-day saints that joined the U.S. Army and marched from Iowa to San Diego. It was a fun interactive site. The kids got to put on some of the army equipment and pan for gold.</div>Madsen Familyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08070512395887724971noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-955145754191688325.post-3306994982639854352011-09-16T08:58:00.002-06:002011-09-16T09:13:05.216-06:00USS Midway Museum<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-8s6gzwv_8Z0/TnNmMMbMoRI/AAAAAAAABwQ/cXT317FskHI/s1600/DSC_0073.jpg" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 213px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-8s6gzwv_8Z0/TnNmMMbMoRI/AAAAAAAABwQ/cXT317FskHI/s320/DSC_0073.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5652974316959867154" /></a><br /><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-dYQALrrjMxo/TnNmL-mKDcI/AAAAAAAABwI/is0lRYfr1ag/s1600/DSC_0075.jpg" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 213px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-dYQALrrjMxo/TnNmL-mKDcI/AAAAAAAABwI/is0lRYfr1ag/s320/DSC_0075.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5652974313247739330" /></a><br /><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-fQASIl5kHdk/TnNmLoD8sSI/AAAAAAAABwA/WQfq4mEYjVo/s1600/DSC_0089.jpg" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 213px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-fQASIl5kHdk/TnNmLoD8sSI/AAAAAAAABwA/WQfq4mEYjVo/s320/DSC_0089.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5652974307198677282" /></a><br /><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-vCr3SZxqvL8/TnNmLX7J5HI/AAAAAAAABv4/g5iB0o8q8HQ/s1600/DSC_0100.jpg" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 213px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-vCr3SZxqvL8/TnNmLX7J5HI/AAAAAAAABv4/g5iB0o8q8HQ/s320/DSC_0100.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5652974302866826354" /></a><br /><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-LCX0kuhSd_U/TnNmK5o4krI/AAAAAAAABvw/AJ4WcgTN3rA/s1600/DSC_0103.jpg" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 213px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-LCX0kuhSd_U/TnNmK5o4krI/AAAAAAAABvw/AJ4WcgTN3rA/s320/DSC_0103.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5652974294737130162" /></a><div style="text-align: center;">The Wilsons had work in San Diego so we met them down there for a few days.

It was so cute! They even gave Stella a doll to sit with. The food was really yummy and they made a special plate for Addie. She loved shopping in the store after breakfast. Kyler loved it too! They had a gameboy for boys to borrow so they have something to do while the girls are shopping. It was so fun we would definitely go again!</div>Madsen Familyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08070512395887724971noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-955145754191688325.post-59019734142319817382011-09-15T15:31:00.003-06:002011-09-15T15:39:27.977-06:00Hanging with Family and Friends<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-n0WTZxRzqlg/TnJwRiDqcxI/AAAAAAAABq4/UniAWOee5Zs/s1600/DSC_0088.jpg" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 213px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-n0WTZxRzqlg/TnJwRiDqcxI/AAAAAAAABq4/UniAWOee5Zs/s320/DSC_0088.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5652703928805651218" /></a><br /><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-EVNtuwRRNaA/TnJwRCtOlxI/AAAAAAAABqw/e15D0_xo1sE/s1600/DSC_0083.jpg" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 213px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-EVNtuwRRNaA/TnJwRCtOlxI/AAAAAAAABqw/e15D0_xo1sE/s320/DSC_0083.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5652703920390051602" /></a><br /><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-F3X3RfPk98A/TnJwQl6Ia-I/AAAAAAAABqo/olvhXyGzCMM/s1600/DSC_0068.jpg" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 213px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-F3X3RfPk98A/TnJwQl6Ia-I/AAAAAAAABqo/olvhXyGzCMM/s320/DSC_0068.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5652703912659545058" /></a><br /><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-V5EnuVg35bg/TnJwQUmGPII/AAAAAAAABqg/jj8_oqgskXI/s1600/DSC_0064.jpg" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 213px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-V5EnuVg35bg/TnJwQUmGPII/AAAAAAAABqg/jj8_oqgskXI/s320/DSC_0064.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5652703908012113026" /></a><br /><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-2yV82lk2icQ/TnJwP0ZIP_I/AAAAAAAABqY/DFODDWzNqYg/s1600/DSC_0067.jpg" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 213px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-2yV82lk2icQ/TnJwP0ZIP_I/AAAAAAAABqY/DFODDWzNqYg/s320/DSC_0067.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5652703899367784434" /></a><div style="text-align: center;">In Chicago we always do a lot of visiting.

We had so much fun. The kids loved going on rides in the ranger. We even got to catch lightning bugs. That is one of my favorite childhood memories and I was glad to share it with my kids. The kids can't wait to go back next summer!</div>Madsen Familyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08070512395887724971noreply@blogger.com0
