Madison's Baptism

Our friend took pictures of Madi at the Temple, here are just 2 of the many pictures.

Madison got baptized on Thursday June 25th. It was a great day and very crazy to think that she is eight years old. Both grandparents came down for the baptism as well as her AZ cousins and primary class. Thanks to all who were there for it. The cutest thing happened - once she got baptized and I was helping her change - she could not stop giggling! I asked her why she was giggly and she said because she felt so good. She was postively glowing! Madison is a great kid and such a good example to Max and Maya! We love you!

Summer means Swim Team

Madi's team - She is on the 3rd row and 3rd from the left. 7 & 8 year old team

Max's team - 3rd row and 2nd from the left - 6 and under

Max on the starting blocks - in the closest lane - what a stance

Madi - in the blue swim suit - right in the middle lane

If it is June, then is must be swim team time at the Rockwood's. Madi and Max are both in Swim Team this year with the Taylor Torpeods. Thursday was their first meet of the year in Freestyle. It was a nice night since there was a breeze and it was only 93 outside. They both swam hard and did a great job! It is so fun to see them swim. It reminds me of when I did swimteam. The only difference is that our meets were indoors in a muggy pool area and a lot less kids than on their teams! Way to go Madi and Max.

Madison is 8!

On June 6th - Madison turned 8. Here is a pictures of her in her "teenage" dress (as she calls it)
I can't believe that she has been in our family for 8 years! It seemed just like yesterday that Bryant and I were anxiously awaiting her arrival!

Her birthday cake - Cheesecake - just like her mom with fresh strawberries! It was delicious and she helped me make it!

Madi and Maya loving each other. We had just gotten back from swimming - something that we do everyday during the summer!

Maya, Madi and Max - all happy that it is Madi's birthday and loving the day.

There She is -our blue eyed, blonde hair, summer tanned girl. She has been the best big sister any Max or Maya could ask for or any oldest child that any Kari or Bryant could ask for! She is excited to get baptized at the end of the month. I will post pictures of the baptism then!
