Santa Photos


WHAT a fantastic afternoon spent with Santa. 


 Mason had a lot to share. 
He went over his list twice and asked if he was good enough to get toys?!?!?!



He is getting SOOO big and his hair... He sure loves a comb over!

 Miss Kendall struggled. She was not a fan and did not want to participate in these photos. I tried to help out but it didn't make a difference. 
 At least everyone else looks happy!

 And then it was just Mason - Again in deep conversations with Santa. 
 Third times a charm with Kendall. Come to find out she just didn't want Mrs. Claus in the photo!
(Not really - this is when the photographer got out some silly looking animal and made some funny noises - no complaints here it worked)

 SUCCESS. Or at least this is the best we are going to get. 
 Next up RY and Hudson!
 LIKE PRO'S!

This one is my favorite. All the Grandma's with the kids.

 time to say Goodbye. Guess who decides to warm up to Santa... KENDALL!

HIGH FIVE!

We missed Greg (he was Santa)!




 Just kidding. He was on shift at the fire station. 
Next year I guess we will have to put him in one or two and get a family shot. I feel weird being the only adult representing our family in these photos! 

Be BLESSED!

To our moms (plural)

To my Mom… You might not always feel needed but you are. You raised two strong women. Who work hard, and try to play harder (at least one of us, I will let the readers decide who I am referring to).   You provided us with a childhood I dream to provide my kids with.   You showed us through experiences a taste of what this life has to offer. You are an amazing mom. AND an exceptional Nana.   To my Step-Mom… I don’t know this to be factual but I imagine that being a Step – Mom is somewhat harder… At least maybe to the two young girls below…. Joyce, you showed us a different side to unconditional love. You choose to stay and stand your ground. Even when you didn’t have to. Even when we fought back. The two women you helped raised are thankful for that! To my Mother in Law. You raised a man who is the best person I know.   (Side note. Mason just a...

Loaded Diaper?!?!?

Today's post title comes to you from the one and only Greg Garka... Thanks for the idea babe! As far as Mason is concernced today was another good day for our little man! We made our goal and got up and went on a total of three walks. The last walk of the night he spotted the “playroom” and was interested so we stopped and visited with our neighbors while he played. It was the highlight of the day. His appetite decreased today but that is to be expected since he hadn’t yet had a bowel movement (in 6 days)– however about 60 minutes ago things changed in that department and I am happy to report his bowels are working and back in action… During his echo he was again a crowd pleaser and was on his best behavior. The technician said that he was the best 3 year old she has done. It is so funny; he gets upset when something is about to happen and he doesn’t understand what. He tells us he is scared and then after we explain to him what they are going to do and that it won’t hurt –...

10 Years....

Mason, It is amazing how time passes by in the blink of an eye after you have kids…. It seems like just yesterday, yet this week, 10 years have passed since our life was turned upside down. The day our world took a turn we never saw coming. Each year leading up to the anniversary, I get anxious, emotional, sad, scared, and angry. I WISH 10 years later I felt differently. But I don’t. It almost feels just as raw as the day we were told…. This year. I am consciously recognizing what it is… MONDAY FEBRUARY 11 th ,2008. We sat in a room where a Doctor carefully articulated and explained to us about your special heart. There is one detail about this day I have seemed to forget in time. That is the name of the doctor who told us about our fate…. I could describe to you in details about anything else you might want to know, who was there, what we were wearing, what the Doctor himself looked like and the conversation we had. Yet his name, which used to be...
