Cousin Ellie came to town!

The highlight of the month: Cousin Ellie was in town AND got to stay over for a sleep-over! A big WOW, in Mason's book! Activities included: dinner, staying up late watching "Ariel's Beginning" while eating popcorn & pink lemonade, chocolate chip pancakes (somewhat resembling Mickey Mouse's head...) for breakfast, dress-up, and mom attempting to give the girls stylish hair dos! Thanks Cousin Ellie! Mason is addicted to you and sheds tears whenever its time to part!

"Mom, Kindergarten ROCKS!"

...said Mason as soon as I picked her up from school! What a girl!

Mason drew her new teacher, Ms. Gomez, a picture of herself, her teacher, and Logan.

Mason and her classmate, Mackinley, lining up to go into class. The girls were in Pre-K together last year.

This was pick up. Look at her beaming!

Her favorite experience was making the necklaces. She was also pretty stoked that she got to eat lunch in the cafeteria (which was a surprise to mom since she packed her lunch!) Overall, Ms. Mason loved it!

Ahhh, life!

Mason took this picture today before Levi left for a quick trip to UT. I think it's kinda cute. It's been a crazy month with his car being in the shop (in UT) and with him starting a new job last week. But, he's kept his chin up and pressed on. Way to go babe! You are a super dad, wonderful husband and a hard working attorney! We love you!

LEGOLAND cont'd some more...

Had to post this, Mason made this face on her own!

LEGOLAND!!!

Mason earned a trip to Legoland with 1 friend for stopping her tumb-sucking habit. She chose to take her friend Jordan. They had an absolute blast!

The weekend

We attended our friend, Connor VanDyke's, baptism today. Mason was SO excited for him. Congrats Connor!
