Super-long-mega-colossal post

You are about to embark on a super-long-mega-colossal post. Watch out! I am getting all caught up and I intend to stay that way! :) Enjoy
Cameron's birthday cake! It was a cookies-n-cream layered cake.
I ate the filling and it was delish.

Everyone helping out! :)
My sweet family

Mason doing his own stunts. He thought he was hot stuff.
Things start to go wrong.
The stunt didn't go exactly how Mason planned.
Enough mom... Turn the camera off.
C's cool new Bazooka high tops.
Cannon's cheesy smile

Mason's cheesy smile.

One day while the Boat and RV show was going on at the Civic Center we took the boys. It was so fun and exhausting. Cannon got on EVERY SINGLE boat and we had to follow him in EVERY SINGLE RV. It was not crowded at this time so we let the boys really enjoy looking and exploring.

They had a stock tank thingy set up for the little kids to go fishing. So Cameron and Cannon sat and waited for a fish. Or Pish as Cannon likes to call them.
and waited
and waited some more
Cameron and Cannon got a fish. The line broke right after this. I yelled and got splashed. We caused a scene. Good times.
Mason's catfish was pretty good sized. Cameron is forcing Mason to touch it.
Mason finally petted his fish. Up until this point he would just hit it.


Cameron and I got to do a vary rare thing a few weeks back... We went on a date. Granted it wasn't as we had planned because I had a meeting at the church that lasted until 9:45 that night but we were thankful that Chedder's stayed open late and we took full advantage of no kids.
Here was my date. He hated me taking his picture in the restaurant.
He hated doing this worse! :) Taking a picture of me. It was torture for him.
This is what we shared to drink... he he he. It was super fruity and we finished about a 1/3 of it. I thought it looked great but after finishing the HUGE plate of chicken tenders I couldn't finish it.

This year Mason's birthday weekend fell on the same weekend as two events that took up a large majority of our friend's and family's time. There was a marriage seminar Friday and Saturday and then the Super Bowl on Sunday. So after trying to come up with a plan that would fit the best in people's schedules we decided that we would celebrate Mason's 2nd birthday at the church during the Super Bowl party. He got a table just for him along with getting to stand on stage and have everyone sing happy birthday to him. It was a fun day to celebrate.
Party boy!
Since we didn't care for either team that went to the Super Bowl we thought we should do our favorite NFL team. Go BRONCOS!
Caught in the M&M's

Big boy!!
M & M and Nay.
Singing Happy Birthday. He was singing with us.
Gracelyn was much to busy to stop and get her picture taken. She is much more interested in her friends right now.
We had been practicing blowing out candles and he did a perfect job.
Finally, I won't get in trouble for picking these things out.
M & M thought Mason would like a ride.
Mason wasn't impressed

Birthday morning. I am 2!!
We started the day out with singing and then off to breakfast. After Gracelyn got home from school we whisked off to Blue Sky to grab a burger. How is it possible that Mason is 2?? Time has never stood still to say the least.
Birthday breakfast at Calico County!

He's a side sipper like his daddy.
At Mason's 2 year well child checkup he weighed in at 30.3 lbs and is 36 1/2 inches tall. Healthy little boy who is very tall and lean.
I fully recognize that there are very few pictures of G on here. I will remedy that soon.
Many blessings to you all!
