Uncle Kevin and Aunt Lindsey

Our weekend started out with a Longhorn victory over the Sooners!!! Hook 'em!

Madelyn looked adorable and so big in her jeans and t-shirt...

Then, even more exciting than TX/OU weekend...the Carlsons came to visit!! Kevin (Clint's best friend from high school), Lindsey, and Cadence stayed with us until Tuesday. Though they had to share their time with Kevin's mom, we managed to fit a lot in and give the girls plenty of time to play. Cadence is 21 months old and was a joy to have around. She is so well mannered and was very sweet with Madelyn....great at sharing too. She gave us a hopeful look ahead into the near future!

the moms were on bath duty once and the dads the other

The Zoo

Cady and Madelyn were more fascinated by these statues than the real animals :-)

neither Cadence nor Madelyn wanted to ride the pony, but petting it was fun

both girls love tunnels...

We took the wagon to the zoo instead of the stroller...much easier to get Madelyn in and out of and she was much happier!

The Carlsons had an early Christmas at his mom's house...nothing says Christmas like Sesame Street...I couldn't resist taking pictures of the decorated pumpkins! We were invited over for dinner one night.

Cadence loved Madelyn's new rocking horse! Somehow we only got pics with Madelyn though...Cady is on the video camera because she was a pro horse rider!

hugs!

Breakfast! Since it is now mid-October, we broke out the Halloween PJs !

the girls had a blast...as you can see...

finally, a group shot!

a few more daddy/daughter pics...

Chicken fight!?!

The Carlsons live in Maryland, so we don't get to see them nearly as often as we would like. Thanks for a great long weekend! Come back anytime!
