Been having lots of fun this week... Jess and Mike stopped through for a day or two and we got to catch up with them out in Kelly.


Madelyn has been "lunching" in her tent out on the porch on the warmer days



And our new mattress came today! Hooray! I can't wait to sleep comfortably tonight! Madelyn is also saying "hooray" because she gets a new apartment complex of boxes to play in for a day or two:) She was enjoying "knocking" on the "door" of the box and waiting for us to respond "who is it??"


These last few pictures are a riot for any number of reasons... Madelyn was half-way dressed (still wearing her leopard jammies), and was SO excited about the vacuum. She was playing light saber with the vacuum hose, which we thought her cousins would get a kick out of (Carson, did you teach her that??!) She was running back and forth while the vacuum was on, swinging her saber left and right!



Looking forward to working in the garden on Friday, and maybe some huckleberry picking this weekend!

Madelyn and I had a fun day at the park with Sita, Niko, and Jess today! We played in the creek and ate watermelon. So good to see the Yeomans, we miss them!

Here's a shot of M drinking from the hose as I water the plants today


Ahh... she looks so angelic. Who would guess from pictures like these that we had to put Madelyn in her first "time-out" today for biting... it's been happening when she's tired and wants attention - we can't have that!? 1 minute sitting down, away from the fun, without eye contact. She clearly did not enjoy it, but I suppose that's the point!:) We'll see how many times we have to repeat before the lesson sinks in!

doing the jive

The other night my parents were i-chatting with us and Madelyn did the funniest hand-jive dance... I've been trying to capture it on the camera for the last few days and I think I came close with this one... not quite the decorative bit she did last time, but entertaining none the less! We worked hard all day long on the hair-do: a few layers of oatmeal, strawberries, and spaghetti sauce...

Some beach footage of Madelyn enjoying the surf and sand... Buckle down, this is a long one!:)

And a few more Pics!

More Reunion Pics!

Here a few more pics...as soon as we get the whole family pic we will post that as I believe Aunt Betty has the best one.

Krasula Family Reunion at the Beach!

We have been in SC visiting lots of family. The bi-annual family reunion on Michael's dad's side all congregated in North Myrtle Beach for week of sun and fun. The trip started off a bit rocky as we missed a flight in Dallas but ended well with Maddie sleeping almost all of both legs when returning to JH yesterday, with lots of fun in between.

As far as the reunion goes their were 25 family members if my counting is correct. Family representing Wyoming, Florida, Ohio, Michigan, Indiana and South Carolina were present. We were a block from the beach, had a pool and all had a great time. Maddie had a great time hanging' with her grandma and grandpa sula, cousins, aunts, uncles and playing in the sand. See pics and more to come later.
