Welcome to Our New House

What you see above is where our future home will be. We own almost 6 acres just on the outside of town. Here you can see that the basement is already underway. It will have a walk out. We will post additional pictures as more progress has been made. We are sure excited to get into a new home, it has been a long time coming.

Gobble Gobble.....Happy Thanksgiving!!!!

Happy Thanksgiving. Trenton was so wxcited to watch all of the food being prepared today. He kept running around yelling "ummmm bites". He is crazy. We ate at Nana Kathy and Vava Pat's house. Tomorrow we are going to Traverse City to see the other Nana and Vava. I sure hope Vava Bill will be ok cause Mason is obsessed with him falling down the stairs.

Mason made that turkey hat in school. He did a great job with only minimal help. Yeah Mason.

Mason was taking pictures too.

That big splash is Nana Kathy. She was upset with VaVa, he said the red one was the slow slide. Ooops.

Mason even got a gift package, He was very excited.

THE GREAT WOLF LODGE

We had such an amazing time. I have so many pictures I will share tomorrow.

Party #1 at PIZZA HUT

We went to Pizza Hut for Mason's birthday dinner. It was his choice and also it is Abb'y Birthday so we always do something together. Mason loves his yaya. All the kids had a great time. Bonus for us because we didn't have to clean up. Yeah Us!! All the Gma's and Gpa's were there,the aunts, uncle's(uncle Ryan had to work) cousins and some friends. Mason smiled the whole time. He was litterally jumping for joy when he got some more presents.

TOMORROW WE ARE OFF TO PARTY #2

THE GREAT WOLF LODGE

IN TRAVERSE CITY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

WOO HOO!!!!!!!!!!!!

Happy 5th Birthday Mason Moo Moo!

Today is Mason's 5th Birthday. I can hardly believe it. Time has gone by so fast. If I just sit and think about the day he was born it brings so many emotions out. He has come so far and is just such a sweet amazing little person. He still has that smile that melts your heart. We often talk about the struggles we have gone through and it seems like it was just yesterday that the NICU team came and took him away from me when he was a few hours old. Now he is 5. He is spelling his first and last name. Counting to 30, singing all kinds of songs, teasing like crazy and just really trying to communicate. He has such a large vocabulary and he remembers everything that you tell him. He loves school. Joe and I are so proud of all he has accomplished. Here are some pictures oh Mason opening some presents at our house.
