This week has been a fun week for us all-we received great visitors on
Monday (Grandpa and Grandma Mason)! The girls have had a blast going and staying down at their motor home and the greatest part of all.........the guys built an addition to the deck!!!! So here are some pics from this rare , sunny Memorial Day weekend. Heres sweet Soph with her Grandma Kathy

Sophie's blessing

Since our friends and family back home were not able to be here today, we took some pictures to try and capture what took place today. It was all beautiful and the girls were wonderful. It was a nice celebration of Sophie's birth into our family, and I'm grateful Trent was given the opportunity to give our little girl this blessing.

The three beautiful girls on Sophie's blessing day Here's the star herself-look at that cute little smile-we wait and wait and when you see that first little smile it makes everything worth while.
Here is our first picture all together since Sophie's birth-not the greatest, but it's the best we could get

Back-tracking

I havn't posted for a bit, so I was thinking I'd do a little back-tracking in the last few months of our lives. We had both of our girls birthdays within this time frame and I always meant to post pictures from their parties-but, well, um-(pretend a great excuse is here). They are at least being posted now- Maddie at her "blue" 3rd birthday-she wanted a blue butterfly cake

The girls dressed up to play outside-they want any excuse to dress-up. They are always quite creative with their outfits as you can see.

Here are some pictures from Olivia's 5th birthday


I love this one with her all decked out in her "very important" gear

So Soph at 2 1/2 wks

So, here is our Sophie. I am not only publishing these photos to show off the hot momma Soph-but I wanted to showcase some items given to her by some very talented women. Lets start with the amazing hand crafted quilt behind Sophie in all these pictures (the back of the quilt is found in the next set of pictures). This was made by my very talented sister-in-law Emily Mason. Look closely at the stitching-isn't it good?! I bet your wishing she was your sister-in-law. Moving on to the next item is the hair bow made by my sister Sarah-she literally made it in moments (I know because I was on the phone with her when she was making it!) And finally it you keep scrolling down you'll see some pretty awesome booty's ( that barely fit Sophie) from my wonderful mother. The thing is, I don't think she made them, but I'm sure if she wanted to she could whip some up-right mom? Thanks again to all of you-and to all viewers, enjoy looking at what Sophie and I now own.
