NE trip

Here are a few pics from our trip to NE last week.







Enjoying the trampoline. Buck, I think that we're going to have to get one of these some day, she had a blast!


Mackenzie with some of her cousins. They all really helped out a lot. She had so much fun playing with them. I think they enjoyed playing with the playdough more than Mackenzie:)











Brock, Shelbi, and Mackenzie had a good time "decorating" Missy's hair.























Mackenzie thoroughly enjoyed going in and out the doggie door:)

ABC's

Here is our little angel (if only she was this cute all the time). Anyways, her two new favorite songs are the ABC's and Wheels on the Bus. We sing them everyday. I'll have to get Wheel's on the Bus on video sometime. She's done the ABC's better, but as soon as I get the camera out, she doesn't do it (as well).

On a side note, please keep Mackenzie in your prayers. A couple of weeks ago I took Mackenzie into the doctor because I was concerned about her weight. The doctor did a bone age test on her (x-ray), and determined that right now her bone growth is at the rate of a 7-month old's. He is convinced that she has a hormone deficiency, we just have to figure out which hormone it is. She's had her blood work done, we just have to wait for the results now, which will take up to 2 months. I'm not trying to worry about things. I trust that the Lord will provide for us and that whatever is wrong with her, her doctors will be able to fix in this modern day of medicine. The extra prayers won't hurt though. Physically (besides her stature), she has no abnormalities. She's as healthy and playful (and moody) as any 2 year old comes. I'm so blessed to have a happy, healthy little girl who gives me so much love.

Trunk or Treat

This year our church held a "Trunk-or-Treat" for the kids. About 20 cars decorated their trunks and handed out candy to the kids. There were also games and food. Mackenzie had a great time.



Mackenzie did the bean bag toss (kind of)





She played musical shapes (kind of like musical chairs) about 50 times. She loved running around in a circle. She would've stayed all night if I let her.








This is Her Majesty, Princess Mackenzie (actually wearing her tiara). She only wore it for about the first 10 minutes, and then it was off. Good thing I took a picture right away!












This was the pumpkin sweep. She attemped to sweep the pumpkin down to the finish line.
