Maddie Is Home!!!

We were expecting Maddie on Sunday last week and we got a surprise when we found out she was on her way on Saturday instead!!! At about 3pm we got a call from Shane & Erin saying they were 3 hours away or so! GREAT SURPRISE!!!!! We were happy to visit with them for awhile before they had to go on to visit their Grandpa in LA, and it was fun for Maddie to show them her new house. Her sisters were so excited to have her back that I think it took awhile for Emmy to let go of her. They have had lots of fun playing outside most of the day... drawing with chalk, playing hopscotch, playing house under the willow tree, riding scooters and bikes, etc.! We sure missed her and will be even happier to have everyone home in 2 weeks!
