HAPPY 30TH BIRTHDAY BEN!

Ben official turned 30 on September 27th. We had a small party with some close friends to celebrate. Thanks everyone for sharing in Ben's special day. I know that he really enjoyed it!

PLAY HOUSE DISNEY LIVE!

Last week we took Mason to see Play House Disney Live in Fresno. He loved seeing all of the characters live that he normally sees on TV. He loved being able to stand up and dance. His favorite of course was Mickey Mouse.

VISIT WITH FRIENDS

Last week we spent a few days in Palm Desert with some friends. I met them while living there with my parents in 1993. I had not been back to visit in over 10 years. So many things had changed so it was great to visit. I met Drew when he was 3 and now he is 18. I cannot believe how fast the years fly by. It was great to reminisce about the old times. Lisa took us to the Living Desert on Tuesday which Mason loved! It was so amazing to be able to get so close to the animals. Mason even got to feed a giraffe. What an amazing experience. Mason loved playing with their dog Woozer. I think Mason is going to need a dog soon. Thanks Lisa and Drew for your wonderful hospitality!

OH BABY...

We are very excited to announce that Mason is going to be a BIG brother. We are blessed to have our second child on the way due the beginning of May. We are looking forward to becoming a family of 4.

DAY AT THE FAIR

Yesterday we spent the day at the Tulare County Fair. Some good friends joined us for a fun day. Mason loved all of the animals. He rode only one ride, a pony ride. We were not sure if he was going to like it but he loved it.

MOMMY AND DADDY'S LITTLE HELPER!

Mason has become quite the little helper these days. Of course we are loving every minute of it :) Mason had been obsessed with our vacuum or as he calls it his ba baaaa. We finally had to get him one of his own. Last week he started taking his burp rags out of the drawer and was using them to dust. Less work for me! Mason has always loved helping daddy wash the car. He got a bubble lawn mower for his birthday and now we pushes it everywhere!

VISIT WITH THE GARCEZ FAMILY

We spent the week up north visiting some good friends. Chris and Stacey are expecting their second child in September. Stacey has been put on bed rest so I spent the week helping her out. While up there I was giving the wonderful opportunity to decorate their nursery and it came out adorable. Mason enjoyed having a play mate for the week. When not fighting Mason and Lexi had fun together. We love you guys and we cannot wait to meet the newest member of the Garcez family :)
