Madi's First Day of Summer!

 Madi came home from the last day of school with a bunch of fun stuff for summer. 

Bubbles, beach ball, sidewalk chalk, jump rope, . . .

 We started summer off right by cooking out and having movie night. 

Madi wanted to see the dove's nest in our tree up close!

 Last time we checked, there were two adult doves and two babies. 
Pretty exciting to see right out back. 

 For movie night, we picked Peter Pan since she hadn't seen it before and it's the theme of her dance camp this summer followed by Peter Pan Moonlight Musical that we'll be going too.  We didn't make it through the whole thing because it was a little too scary for Madison.  We may try again another night. And of course, she wore her Tinkerbell pajamas for the event.

 First day of summer and we are off to the eye doctor for Madison.

 She did so well with all the tests.  And there were a bunch of tests!

 It's hard to tell but they dilated her eyes so her pupils were HUGE!  Thank goodness her eyes are great and we don't have to go back for two years.

  The eye doctor must have worn her out because this is how I found her when I woke up from my nap.  She NEVER naps anymore.  :)

 Madi's balloon needed an identical balloon attached to it, I guess. :)

 I saw a great use for these flat plastics tubs on a blog yesterday and decided since we had some extra ones we needed to have a mini sandbox outback.  After dinner at Firehouse we went to Wal-Mart and bought some sand and sand toys.

 Madi loved playing it! 

Matt thought Chicke needed a good combing since summer time is coming.

 We were amazed at how much hair came off of her. 

Madi then thought Noodle needed a combing too.  

By the looks of it, Noodle thought it was a good idea as well.
