Mason Graduates!!!







Mason graduated from Kindergarten! He is so excited because now he can play on the "big playground". School this year was a great experience for both Mason and I. I am so thankful for his teacher. She is so patient and kind. She can control 25 students without any Aids. I would volunteer once a week to go in and help her for an hour. By the time my hour was up I was ready to go home. Some of the kids in Mason's class are just out of control. I am so glad that Mason is a good kid!

Bubbers!!!!!!!!!!








Bryant is our little bubbers. Yes, he can finally walk. He will just walk around with a big grin on his face. Bryant is the happiest baby. He loves to be outside. He loves to wrestle with Mason and Karlee(Karlee is better for him to wrestle because she will just lay there and laugh). He loves Elmo! If I want him to sit down in one spot for a few minutes I will just start an Elmo's World Movie. He makes our family laugh so much!!!!!!!!!! He also loves to play in the water(with or without his clothes). What a funny boy!

Karlee Our Princess!




















Karlee is such a special girl! She is growing up so fast. She can now walk to our church building with her walker from our house(which is 3 to 4 blocks)! Good job Karlee! Karlee has the funniest personality. The other night she was suppose to be listening to the story before she went to bed, and all of sudden she is busting-up laughing. I look over at her and she had asked her dad to tie a blanket over her face. She laughed forever then she asked if she could sleep with the blanket on her face. So we had to hide the blanket so she could go to bed. Karlee is really good with Bryant. She sometimes falls asleep on the couch and Bryant will go up to her and poke her eyes and pull her fingers. If she wakes up she will just smile at him. Karlee loves to color and paint. She is always bringing home her projects from school. We are so glad that we have our very own princess! If you ask her which princess she is she will tell you she is Snow White, and that is what she wants to be when she grows-up! Karlee has blessed our lives in so many ways!

Mason is Six!




















What a great year we have had with Mason. He got to start Kindergarten! On the first day of school when I went to walk him to his classroom he said,"No thanks Mom you just stay in the car", and that was that. Mason loves school. He got to be a Police Officer for Halloween. That was a lot of fun that day trying to teach him that he was a pretend cop, not a real one. If Ken and I didn't do what Mason wanted he would threaten to take away our drivers license or take us to jail. Mason loves to be outside, he always has ever since he was a baby. When it snows all of the neighborhood girls go outside and come to our house because Mason's serves hot chocolate! What a hostess. Mason also got to go on a fieldtrip for school. We got to go to "The Body" with Sesame Street at the Gateway. It was a lot of fun but there were too many kids for me! One day we were at the grocery store and the Kid Cuisine frozen meals were on sale so Mason and Karlee just had to have one. So when they were eating them they had to get their picture taken because it was "the best food ever"! What a blessing Mason is in our lives! He is a good kid and a good big brother! Mason has the talent to teach his parents patience(but what kid doesn't). Mason loves to read books and loves to be read to. His favorite scripture story is about Alma the Younger, he always says that he has a "soft heart". He really does listen and learn. Mason also loves trains! Thomas and Friends are his favorite! That is who he had on his birthday cake. Wow I have a six year old, and time flys. Thanks Mason for all the love and laughter that you bring into our lives!!!!

Helping Mommy with Laundry


I lost Bryant for a minute, so I went to find him and this is where he was! He would not look at me until I got the camera! What a funny boy! Thanks for thinking of the idea to save on laundry. Just bath your kids with their clothes on.

Museum Fun


Our family had a great time at the museum last summer.

Blowing Bubbles


Mason and Karlee are enjoying being outside blowing their bubbles.

Karlee's First Field Trip


Karlee went on her first field trip at school. She loves riding the bus. She even got to pick her very own (baby) pumpkin!

Mason lost his first tooth





He was so excited that his wobbly tooth finally came out. It didn't even hurt, and the tooth fairy came!

Sledding on Tile!


When it is too cold to go outside, just sled inside on your tile floor. Bryant is loving it!
