Discovering the Park

This past week has been Spring Break for the schools in the area. Obviously, that does not affect Mason and I too much, but we did plan to go to the zoo with my mom, Katie, Michael, and Diana & her kiddos on Thursday. Well, we woke up on Thursday to snow...and it didn't stop all day, so we did not get to go.
As I was scraping the inches of snow off of our two cars (we have not been blessed with covered parking yet), I realized that although I usually love the snow, and am still glad that we live in a place that gets it, I was not very excited at all about this March snowstorm interrupting the first signs of spring that we had been enjoying.

Mason was really disappointed because he loves animals. But, like usual Colorado weather, it warmed up a few days later. As a compromise, we all met at a park for a picnic this morning. The weather was perfect, and we all really enjoyed ourselves. Mason LOVED it, there are so many cute pictures of him, I have to put a lot up!







Our day started out with a picnic, here he is with cousin Tori


















Mason will only drink from a sippy cup, he can do it just fine by himself, but he likes to get help sometimes, too.










Next, we went to the swings. By popular demand (haha, actually just by Kimberly's demand...), here is a picture of me, finally, on this blog.













Alexis has always loved to play with Mason, and just look at his big smile, and you can see that he loves it, too!











Uncle Michael entertained Mason for quite some time by burying him in the sand!










Levi and Mason are already the best of friends, besides a few little disagreements about who gets to hold what toy once in awhile, they love to play with each other! It is so cute, they always smile so big at each other when they see each other.











We tried to get a good picture of Mason and Grandma, but Mason just couldn't keep still! He kept crawling off.

Mason is SO cute! Aren't you glad you have family close by! That's so much fun.

I just love this blogging thing! Mason is such a cute little boy; I sure wish we were closer! It's also been so fun to see pictures of your family (i.e. parents and siblings). Everyone looks so grown up now!
