Skippyjonjones

Mason had a read-a-thon at school and his group read a story of skippyjonjones. The siamese cat that thinks he is a chihuahua, it was really cute and Mason was Skippyjonjones. He saved the day when he popped the great bumblebeeto with his sword and got all the beans back for everyone.

Mason's Baptism

Oh my heck...I can't believe that I am old enough to have an 8 year old:) Mason's day was so awesome...after the baptism we went to Jensen Pond in Syracuse and had his luncheon in the visitors center. It was so nice...no mess at my house and everyone was in the same room not half upstairs and half down! Thanks to all our family and friends that came out and supported little Mason:)
The 3 kids being baptized that day:)

new years and sledding

I am so slacking:)
The kids LOVED sledding when we had snow...this year has been very funny!

Mason kept falling off and Marshal would not get off the 4-wheeler. He didn't want to fall off:) Abbie was just loving the few minutes that mom let her ride.



Happy New Years!!!!

Our Christmas visitor...

We had a special visitor come before Christmas...One of our friends dresses up and goes around the ward/neighborhood and visits the kids...even though Mason knows him it is still so much fun. I remember one year their Grandpa Mathis dressed up like Santa and Mason knew him...but he thinks it is SO cool that some people that he knows is Santa's helpers. So Thank you Rob:)

SNOW!...
my boys LOVE the snow...even though it means daddy gets to be out plowing in Syracuse ALL the time! They love to go outside and shovel, my neighbors probulary think I am a slave driver:) But the LOVE it. When Mike does finally get home from work...he LOVES to play with them...
GingerBread Houses...
