Gold Medal

**Here is the finale of Madison's gymnastic classes. Each child received a gold medal and got to stand on the platform. It was adorable and Madison loved it.

SEATTLE

We had a great trip to Seattle...saw lots of things, drove all around the city, and even made a trip into Victoria, B.C., Canada for the day. It was a busy trip, but well worth it. I can't believe I go back to work next week. This summer really flew by!
