the red, white and blue

in honor of veteran's day, madelyn's school held a large assembly and invited veterans and their families from the community to come and be honored.  they asked all of the kids to wear red, white and blue.  of course, madelyn loves to dress with a theme and came up with her own outfit of everything she had with red, white and/or blue on it. i honestly don't know how she could move her arms because the dress and the tank top (yes, there is a dress under the tank top) are at least one size too small and fit way too high in her armpits!  but she was terribly cute and proud of her look.

off to school for madelyn and mason while everyone else stayed at home with daddy and grandma.  it was nice to not have to haul everyone in when i was dropping off mason.  i think mason enjoyed having me all to himself after we dropped off madelyn because he talked the entire time and reviewed our schedule for the day - he loves to tell the events of the day in the sequence they have or will occur. and this was going to be a fun one!  love.
