Madison's 9th Birthday

My sweet little Maddie is growing up right before my eyes. It seems like just yesterday she was charming the world with her little baby cuteness, yet earlier this month we celebrated her 9th birthday. How quickly time passes. I am so proud of the young lady she is becoming ~ so kind, compassionate, smart, sensitive, loving, and full of life. She is truly a gift from God!


Here is the cake I made for Maddie's party. Ella loved "helping" me make the frosting and decorate the cake!




We celebrated Maddie's birthday with a party at a huge play center with blow up obstacle courses. The kids loved it! Here she is with a few of her friends.



Some more of Maddie's friends enjoying themselves. Below: Maddie celebrated her birthday along with her good friend, Nina (who happens to share the same birthday!)



Everyone had a great time! Thank you to all of our family & friends for helping to make Maddie's 9th birthday so special!
