We are part of the family too!!!!!!!!

I was just informed by our 4 legged family members that they are quite upset that they weren't posted on the Bradshaw blog. Let me introduce Macey's older siblings, Smokey and Molly they are going to be 10 years old this month and they think they run the household. Riley is Macey's younger sibling and he turned 3 in March! He's lot's of fun and full of energy but definitely a little spoiled like Macey!

A busy, fun-filled year to date!

Let's see, we'll give you a quick run of this year's events!

• Macey turned 7 in February with a promised trip to Chicago to start her summer off visiting the amazing American Girl Store! While we were in Chicago we visited the Navy Pier, Field Museum and shopped the Magnificent Mile! It was great!
• I was kind enough to be "suckered" into being the "Cookie Mom" for Macey's Brownie troop! I have recently found out that this is a permanent title for me now!
• We went to Columbus, Mississippi in March for Heather & Davey's wedding and Macey was their beautiful flower girl. It was a beautiful event and great to see everyone again!

• Macey finished up the 1st grade this year and started up swim lessons! She's made great progress and shows interest in being a strong swimmer!
• We took a fantastic trip home to Arkansas in July to visit Scott's side of the family. We stayed with his parents for a week and then Macey and I stayed a week longer with Laura, Jesse and Tatumn in LR. We had a nice time visiting, shopping and playing at the water park! And we can not forget the horse stables, I felt like we lived their for a couple of days!
• Macey and I went to visit the Novacek's in their new home in Kearney over Labor Day weekend! It's beautiful of course! I helped them get unpacked and somewhat organized while the kids played and had a great time! Watch out for the rattle snakes though!!!!!! Good luck with the open house Annie!
• We had visitors coming this month so we raced to get our guest room done! And we did, just in time to welcome Laura and Tatumn! We loved having them and wish they could come back soon! Sorry we didn't have better weather while you were here.
• Macey is back in school now and started 2nd grade! Wow, she's continuing with fall swimming but is putting dance on hold this year. I guess after 4 years of dance she needs a break. She's also in a brownies troop at school so FYI cookie time starts the first of the year!

Well that's it for now!

Newby's to the blogger world!

Well here it goes - we're jumping into this blogging sensation for the first time! Not to big of a splash though, we'll keep it simple for now. My hopes for this blog are to help us keep our family and friends close and up to date with our crazy busy lives! Thanks for visiting!
