"Cutting back" this year... looks like someone didn't get the memo!
Priceless faces
Reading the letter that Santa left for Mason
THOMAS!
Trying on the hat that Santa left in Mason's stocking- and it came off 2 seconds later!

Visit from Santa
Santa came to visit the week before Christmas to see what the kids wanted for Christmas... Mason didn't want to get too close! Although he did warm up a bit from the arm of the chair- but just don't put him on his lap!
Mason running from Santa
Bribery is a beautiful thing!

The Cookie Thief
So I had baked some cookies one afternoon, turned on Elmo for Mason to watch while I went up to shower- I know, great babysitter... and then came down to find this...
Nice of him to bring back the cookies after he removed the chocolate kiss!

It's been a while...
It has been a really long time since my last post... my life has been a little hectic with work and the last place I want to be when I get home is on my computer! So get ready for lots of new posts!

We love you Grandma!
Grandma, we are so glad that you were able to go to be with Grandpa once again, and that you are no longer struggling to catch your breath! Know that you will be missed everyday, but I will think of you each and every time that I gaze into Mason's blue eyes! You were an inspiration to all of us and I hope to live half the life that you did! I love you- xoxox!

The Zoo
Mike and I both took Thursday off to celebrate Mason's Birthday... well my original thought in taking the day off was to prepare for the party that night, but when I saw that it was going to be in the mid 70's that day, I knew we had to take advantage! I don't know that we will be able to make this a tradition every year, although I have to admit it would be quite nice! Here are some of the pictures from our adventure!
