Mason's 3rd Birthday Party!

I think I've recovered from last weekend enough to finally post Mason's birthday party pictures! It seems we've been so busy lately!

Mason had a great party with our family. He was so excited to see everyone after counting down to his birthday for months! I managed to keep my emotions under control with my baby boy turning 3 (except for being a little stressed!) and the party went great. Wayne grilled hamburgers & hot dogs and we had baked beans, potato salad & chips. I tried to keep it simple.
BTW, Thank you so much to my Mom, Lisa & my MIL, Clova for all the help at the party! And thank you Tori for taking some pictures!

Excitement!
Getting the food ready Cake time!
Blowing out the candle
Yummy "muffcakes!" (he also has started to call them "mupcakes)


Time for the presents
A happy boy
And we saved the big surprise for last...A power wheels Jeep! He was in shock when he first spotted it, then ran right up & hopped in! He's now a pro at driving it.
HAPPY 3RD BIRTHDAY, MASON!

Great Strides CF Walk

The walk on Saturday went great~$62,000 was raised! (13% more than our walk last year!) Thanks for your donations!

Wayne, Mason, Lance, Jason, & Lexa
Lots of walkers

Mason was happy to be there

Especially when Spongebob arrived! The kids mobbed him, so he started to walk around. Mason walked right with him around the whole premises, holding his arm!
Still holding his arm...

and holding....

and holding...

And finally~a moment alone with Mr. Squarepants. I guess his persistance paid off!

"Great Strides" Cystic Fibrosis Walk is Saturday!

Tomorrow morning is the "Great Strides" walk to raise funds for the CF Foundation. I'm proud to be on the committee again this year & hope to see you there! Registration starts at 9am with the walk at 10am, but there is far more to do & see than the walk itself. There's a car show, kids activities & inflatables, door prizes, lots of good food & much more. The weather should be beautiful--not to hot--so please join us for a fun day tomorrow! (see details on the flyer below or call or e-mail me with any questions) Mason is going to be so excited to see Spongebob!
