Mason's 1st day of school

Great big grin of excitement on the morning of his 1st day of school.
First impression of his classroom.
After school with Miss Silva. What a great 1st day!!!
While we wait for Hunter to be released from his class.
With all the excitement it was hard to get 'em to look at me. Brothers at their first school.

Mason's 3rd Birthday

Taking time out to talk to Gramma on his birthday!
Rockin' out!!
Make a Wish, Birthday King!!
The smallest, least expensive gifts always get the most use!
Yummmy!
Score!!!

For Mason's birthday we didn't really plan anything major. I had to work the earlier part of the day, so after work we went bowling. Mason's choice. We had a great time. Mason didn't really bowl a whole lot. Later he told us that his ball went too slow and he wasn't good at it. Sad!! But he was certainly entertained with all his new gifts and popcorn and the claw machines. Hunter loves bowling and did a great job! I can't wait to go bowling again!

Random... but keep scrolling cuz I posted a bunch

Me and my besties on Lynanne's birthday.

Just in case some of you didn't actually receive my Christmas card...Mindi. Sorry!!
Check out that cheezy grin.

Wonderful Snow Storms

Though we haven't gotten nearly as much snow as all you Spokanites, we have had our fair share. I love that our back yard is safe. The past 2 years we had to worry about the kids walking on broken glass and garbage. I love our place now!! And we even have a little sledding hill right outside our back sliding door.
Making a snow angel, of course.
Gotta love the sock mittens lol!
King of the mountain!
Taking a ride with our sled dog. I don't really know what's going on with my face there.

Christmas Morning

Mason being a scary robot!!
One of the boys' favorite toys. It's so cool! Thanks Lynanne!!
Guitar Hero. Yeah!


They each get their own guitars. Actually Mason's crappy cheap one broke and I should probably return it, but time just flies by. It was nice being able to have a nice Christmas and not stress about being able to buy enough gifts. We had a nice day, full of playing and putting toys together. We went and saw Bedtime Stories with Adam Sandler and it was good. Then came home to a nice dinner of ribs and mashed taters. Awesome day!

Catching up

At Hunters' school, they had a gingerbread house project for all the kids and their siblings. It was so cute and surprisingly not too hectic trying to keep all the frosting off the kids clothes. Luckily I have amazingly good children, because there were some kids covered from head to toe in frosting. Haha to those parents.

Thank God they didn't try to eat the candy. Who knows whose hands were all over that stuff.

Merry Christmas!!

Well, I'll just start by saying Merry Christmas to everyone! I love you all and I hope your Christmases are great! Mine is halfway over already and it's been so fun and hectic just getting all the toys put together, trying to clean as I go and watching the kids and Ken play with all their new toys. Ken got Guitar Hero for his playstation with an extra guitar for Hunter to play, so they've been doing that all day (with a short break to let me watch my new movie, Mamma Mia) Mason is so good at entertaining himself that he is spending all his time on a GeoTrax train and airplane set. We are planning to go see Bedtime Stories, the new Adam Sandler movie a little later and then come home and do a bbq rib dinner. Why not, right? I will definitely need to post pics from this morning, but it will have to wait for a bit, cuz I'd like to enjoy as much of this time as I can. Love you!
