1st Birthday Fun!

June 29, 2008 · Leave a Comment

Yesterday we had a little party for Mason.  He was so good the whole day and I think he had a lot of fun!  Besides some pretty bad thunderstorms that moved through and forced us all inside, I think it was a successful day.  Here are some pictures from the day.

     

The set-up and his present from Mom Mom Ginny, Uncle Brendon and Aunt Rachel.  Thanks guys, he loves it! 

     

Relaxing outside, before the storms!  Mason’s just chillin’ in his little red wagon.

     

Opening gifts inside.

     

The cakes.  Just in case you were wondering, we filled his dump truck with dessert “dirt” and the flower pot.

                               

I think he liked the dirt!

                               

Getting cleaned up afterwards.  He slept like a rock, he was so worn out from all the fun he had!

Beach Photos 2

June 16, 2008 · 1 Comment

We are back from Hilton Head!  We had a great time, wish we could have been there a week more.  I am posting more photos; however, a tragic thing happended to us while we were down there.  Our external hardrive, where we have been keeping all photos/videos since before Mason was born crashed.  Needless to say were were pretty upset.  We have a handful of photos downloaded on Wal-Mart.com and on this blog, but besides from that, we seem to have lost everything.  That will teach us to back it up twice.  So, I will post what photos we quickly took Thursday/Friday, some of our best photos are gone!  Enjoy these. 

On another note, we can’t beleive Mason will be one year old this coming Monday.  He’s growing so fast!  We treasured these last days of “infanthood” and are getting prepared to more into “toddlerhood”!

Here’s the condos we stayed in:

That was our last day before we drove through the night to get home Saturday morning at 6:30.  Mason slept the whole way-10 hours, which is why we did it.  We were hoping he would sleep!  Hope you enjoyed the pics!

First Round of Beach Photos!

June 10, 2008 · 1 Comment

We are down in Hilton Head, SC on vacation, getting some much needed rest and relaxation.  It has been wonderful!  I’m posting a few quick pictures, a full post of pictures to come from beginning to end.  Mason has loved the pool and ocean, he’s not afraid of the water one bit, even his dad dunking him under!  Enjoy these first pics!
