Madison's 3rd Birthday

I didn't do so hot on the pictures this year for Madi's birthday! Oh well, we were too busy having fun to bother with the camera! Madi had a few cousins over in the morning to play and have cake. Her one request for her birthday was a Dora cake. She wanted it for her birthday breakfast, lunch and dinner!! And it had to be pink!! We went out for a pizza dinner when Eric came home.

The Birds

We were visited by the cast of the Alfred Hitchcock movie this morning. Literally hundreds of blacks birds swooped down onto the trees that line the house. It sounded like rushing water or wind. I know these pictures dont do it justice, but the trees are virtually leaf-free, so everything that resembles a leaf is actually a bird.

They stayed about 10 minutes and then left as quickly as they had come in one mass flock! This picture only captured maybe half of them. Madi thought it was pretty cool, but then again, so did I!
