Happy Birthday Madison!!
You are such a wonderful big sister. You look out for your siblings and are so patient with them. Mom and Dad can't wait for you to be old enough to babysit only because we know we'll be able to trust you.
You were such a trouper when you almost had to have your appendix removed. We are all very glad that you did not undergo surgery!
Cute and fun! This was taken at Foster Freeze in Carpinteria . . . a tradition!
You are such a good missionary - always have been and still are. There were many, many non-members at your baptism and friends are always joining in whatever activity you are participating.
You've grown so much now!
Your birthday present from us: a pooper scooper! Love that expression of not knowing what in the world that thing is! Also included was a bowl, leash, and bags (for the scooper).
The realization hits! I'M GETTING A DOG!!!!!!!!
Can you tell she's a teensy weensy bit excited?
Note: we've been searching for the 'perfect' dog for our family. Now Madison can be in on the search.
Pure Joy. So worth it.
We celebrated at night with Grandma and Grandpa Merrill, Carnell and Lisa & Danny.
What do you think of our ice cream cake???
Madison, we love you. You are an awesome, beautiful, smart, kind and compassionate girl. Friends are always drawn to be with you because of your sweet spirit. You are our angel, Maddy Boo!

What a VERY FUN birthday!!!! It is neat to live her parties through your blog...thank you! Yes, they were delicious cakes. That first picture reminds me of Ashley, didn't realize they looked so much a like. You are blessed with beautiful and very sweet children.
I agree with Sharon. It is so wonderful to share your life through your blog. We loved being with Madison last night. She does have a sweet spirit and it all of the adjectives you have given her.
What a great birthday surprise-a dog!! That must have been so much fun to plan. The 1st picture is the Madison I remember most. So cute. She's such a sweet & beautiful girl. I can't believe she and Zachary are so old.
YAY! Happy Birthday Madi...and how fun! A NEW PUP!!!
I love all the action going on over there!!
WOW! What a gift. Perhaps you didn't learn anything from me!? ha!
Can't wait to see the new addition to your wonderful family!
