2 BIG Things

The first big thing is last week my wonderful son Mason turned 3!!! We had a nice small party at home. We made cupcakes and just had a really nice time even though I opted not to have a party this year. Mason got a new bike and wonderful books and a playset from Grandpa. It was a day about him and not running around and making sure everyone is having a good time. Perfect.

The second big thing is that I hit one year of not smoking. I quit when I was pregnant and was REALLY STUPID to pick up a cigarette again. But my love for Mason won over my love of tobacco. I am happy to say that I haven't been wanting to smoke for a long time, except when I am really bored but in those cases I just try to stay really busy.

I am so grateful for the people in my life and the many things I have accomplished. And above all I love my son, my beautiful big boy.

San Diego Weekend

Mason and I drove down to San Diego this weekend to spend some time with my Aunt and Uncle and my cute cousin Colten. Here are some of the pics:

Kicking It American Idol Style

Story Time

We also went to the San Diego Zoo and got to see Gorillas and Hippos and Mason's favorite....The Elephants

And of course the petting zoo

There are other pictures that I would love to share but it would take me forever to upload. Mason and I had so much fun.....My Aunt and Uncle got a cheesecake (Yum!!) for him and we all sang happy birthday and they also got him a little dr.'s play set. (Dr. Mason....I like the sound of that. Ü) I am not throwing Mason a birthday party this year so San Diego was just perfect, Mason had such a special day and I loved being able to visit with my family and see my little cuz Colten (who again is such a cutie!!!)
