Auntie Kaleigh added a touch of pink to maddy's hair...this weekend...!!!



taught my first "official" wire wrapping jewelry class yesterday! Everyone had a great time!

and then last nite...we went to the 2009 pasta fest which is a fundraiser for the MACC fund..(an agency that does some wonderful things for children with cancer in the milwaukee area) Shannon got tickets thru her work...her boss is one of the fabulous sponsors of the event!
well they have tons of raffle prizes that are donated to the cause..and...

maddy WON!!! (well we all know maddy is a winner already...hee hee)

She won an AMERICAN GIRL DOLL AND TWO HAND SMOCKED DRESSES FOR HER NEW DOLL!

Maddy named her MEGAN...after Kaleigh's good friend, Megan..who gave maddy some money to buy some raffle tickets! It was one of her tickets that was pulled to win!

Maddy was sooooooooooooooooooooooooo excited! (can ya tell?)




Well it's off to work for me...so til later big HUGZ!!!

PLEASE PLEASE....

VOTE FOR ASHLEY PAIGE AND HER ANIMAL RESCUE! Ashley is a wonderful person that takes the time to help out sweet pups..that need her!!! She is also someone who genuinely cares about things that most celebrities would thing nothing of...doing!

Aside from her animal rescue...she designs...swimwear...now what you may ask does THIS have to do with anything...well maddysen and I were big fans of her show...(especially maddy...) and i wrote in to tell her how much maddy loved her show...and that she had inspired her to create some little knit things too! (well it's maddy and you KNOW the girl loves to make things!!!) well within just minutes of me posting this note to her website...she emailed me back thanking me...!!! now thinking this was just an automated reply...oh noooo...it was ashley her self!!! and tooo boot...she called miss maddy ON HER BIRTHDAY!!! MADDY WAS IN AWE!

ASHLEY is truly a sweet hearted person...that soooo deserves this recognition of this award...(not to say the others don't) but please find it in your heart to swing a vote her way!!!

big smooches from me and maddysen!!!

...sticky sweet!

..how's everyone?

papa helped maddy build a dolphin model...the other day...(maddy LOVES DOLPHINS!)
