The Cousins

After fishing we went to celebrate Cousin Garrett's 3rd birthday. As you can see they were very happy to see each other.

Mason's First Fishing Trip

Saturday we took Mason fishing for the first time. I thought it would be nothing more than a 10 minute photo op and we'd be outta there. Boy, was I wrong! An hour and a half later we were still there! The pond belonged to a neighbor of Grammy and Pop so Grammy stopped by with hot chocolate. Even though it was a little chilly Mason was a trooper. One of these days we'll even be able to put a hook on the line. But for now he was thrilled with just splashing the pole in the water pretending to cast. Fran was very proud to be taking his son fishing.

Mason & Uncle "Kiss"

Monday we stopped by to see my brother Chris who is a MedEvac Paramedic. Mason loved the helicopter and especially enjoyed watching the planes take off and land at the airport. Every time he sees an airplane or helicopter he points and says "Uncle 'Kiss'".

Happy Birthday Kiersten!

Our beautiful God-Daughter turns one!

Happy Birthday Nana!!!

Nana looking good and celebrating her 88th Birthday!!

Patty's Day

While celebrating our Irish, Mason was invited on stage to dance with the Irish Dancers. He was by far the youngest and shortest but showed no fear and had ablast. He is a sucker for a cute girl!

Goats

Our friends, and ex-neighbors, Jules, Ildiko and their son Bence moved away to a lovely property on the top of a hillside. When they left, they had a cat and two dogs. Three years later their family of pets has grown to include 2 cats, 4 dogs, a bird and now goats!! (Coming soon this spring....chickens??) The mamma goat had a baby and we all went to see the cutie. Mason wasn't sure at first but by the end he was feeding them carrots. When you as what a goat says he promply replys"baaaaa" and sticks his fingers on his head like horns. Too cute. Now they are all he talks about.
