Our family

We recently had some family photos taken at a local beach. The weather was perfect, so I was so excited. Unfortunately, Mason had a different idea. He spent the majority of the shoot, trying to look at anything other than the camera. Regardless, Natalie and Margie did a great job and we got a few awesome pictures.

The bike

The newest addition to the house is Mason's bike. Boy does he love this, from the minute he gets up, until bedtime, you will find him riding through the house. The dogs are still getting used to the bike, since now, they are constantly being chased down by the new wheels.

A day on the river

One of Mason's favorite things to do, is throw rocks into water. It doesn't really have to be much water, a small puddle in the yard will do. So when Dada takes him down to the river to throw rocks, it's truly a dream come true. This day rocks were replaced with acorns. With fall here, there is an abundance of them. With a bucket full of acorns Mason and Dada headed down to the dock...Moose and Otis tagged along.

Another Chef in the kitchen

It has been too long and there are many pictures to share, including a recent visit from Papa and Gamma. But today's little adventure was too cute not to share, now. With the wind ripping through the trees, it was a great day to stay inside and bake. As soon as Mason saw the measuring spoons and cups come out, he wanted to help. Well, instead of submitting my banana bread to Mason's measuring, I decided he could cook something up, himself. With a little sugar, flour, raisins, chocolate chips and spaghetti noodles(his secret ingredient), he was off scooping, pouring and stirring. He did great and there was only a small mess to clean up!
