Happy Birthday Maddi!!

The day my life turned on its end, and finally felt right to me.
Happy 1st birthday! A piglet cake that would later prove to be only the beginning of Grandma Nolene's masterful cake-making career Two years old Maddi turned 3 while we lived with Grandma and Grandpa...
lucky for us, we lived there for another birthday, too


Doesn't every girl ask for a Barbie cake at some point?

See how the babies from our neighborhood have grown!
Lucky number 7
Great to be eight! clearly not a baby anymore





..........Happy 10th birthday? Where are you??...... scrapbooking and I have parted ways.




back on track in year 11. Maddi became part amphibious that year.

Just last year at 12 years old. Wasn't that just yesterday?



what about this one? Bear Lake was just last year.I know that "buried in blankies" was not as long ago as the date on the reverse side insists.

Now we've arrived at this??
it is physically painful to accept


Just today at the Junior High. Moms are still very cool when they show up with cupcakes.

Happy Birthday Maddi! You are such a blessing to our family, and I love you more every day!
Love,
Mom

  2. Happy Birthday Sweet Maddi! It has been fun watching you grow. I have the cutest photo of you, Kobe and Mari Hill all sitting in the rocking chair on our front porch taken years ago. It is still a favorite of mine. Where have the years gone?

    Celebrate big!

  4. Maddi,
    You were a delight right from the start and these pics have awakened a lot of happy memories. It is a fine thing to witness a lovely bloom unfold before your eyes; every stage its own wonderful reward. You are our treasure and we couldn't love you more or be more grateful for you. Happy Birthday!
    Love you forever,
    Grandma and Grandpa
