Mother's Day Snow

Yep, that isn't a typo. While Mason was singing away in church, it was dumping snow. Over 2 days we got close to 2 feet of snow. I spent the entire day on the couch (which wasn't all bad, but kinda boring) because there wasn't really anything else to do except make a fire and watch it dump!

This is the next morning on the way to school. Nasty roads and major traffic jams because cars couldn't get up the hill and were in the ditch. 

Mason had fun though! ;)

Mother's Day

On Mother's Day Mason sang in big church for the first time. They did a great job and there really is nothing cuter than little people singing in church! :)

5 Year Well Child Check

I don't think I will ever learn to not take both kids to the doctor if I can help it. It is like herding cats…….they go crazy there for some reason. Even the iPads weren't working! Anyway, Mason is growing like a weed and as big as every. He was 55lbs and 47.5". Still off the charts for his height and weight. The pediatrician said he is the average height of a 7 year old……YIKES! 

Here are some pictures of our crazy trip to the doctor. 

We always have to take pictures of the fish. 

Cooper thought it was his job to climb up and down off the table over and over again. 

And ripping the paper and throwing it on the ground. AWESOME!

Birthday Train Ride

On Mason's actual birthday we took a family ride on the light rail. We headed down town and rode the mall bus and had lunch. It was such a fun day for Mason and Grandma!

Mason's Birthday Party

All Mason wanted for his birthday this year was to have a bouncy castle at his party. Easy enough! He invited his friends from soccer and a few friends from school and they had a blast. We lucked out and had awesome weather and everyone had a great time.

Cooper and I were on balloon patrol in the morning. Have I mentioned I HATE balloons and this car ride was my personal nightmare. Cooper on the other hand had a blast pulling on the balloons the entire way home. 

The infamous bouncy castle

These kids bounced their brains out….so much fun.  

Sweaty kids eating chocolate cake! Good combo!

Finally time to open the loot!

Birthday Celebrations

Mason turned 5 on May 6th. Hard to believe this and even harder for me to believe he is going to Kindergarten this fall. Glad we will have a fun summer together before he starts school everyday.
As apart of the birthday celebrations, we had a family dinner at White Fence Farms. The kids had a ball and all the adults ate WAY too much fried chicken…..so delicious! Add a chocolate cake after and we had to be rolled out to the car.

Cooper LOVED him some fried chicken! 

Easter 2014

The boys and I had a wonderful Easter. Andy was gone for the weekend on a golf trip so I was flying solo. They couldn't wait for the Easter Bunny to come and to hunt for eggs. The fun thing this year is Mason started to understand the true meaning of Easter and it is not just about the Easter Bunny.

The Loot

Nothing like eating a chocolate bunny at 7:30 in the morning! ;)

Hunting for eggs…….

Mason was really good with Cooper and helping him find a few eggs. I say a few because you can see how Mason's basket is full and Cooper only had a handful of eggs. He did not have speed on his side this year. ;)

Emptying out the candy. 

All dressed up and ready for church and enjoyed a nice brunch after. 

Me a my little loves! 

Gone WAY TOO long!

My apologies to the few people who actually read this blog, life has gotten away from me for the past 2 months. So get ready for a posting overload……lots to cover! :)
