Birthday and Easter Celebrations
Birthday celebrations continued as Mason and my mom both had birthday last week. My mom was going to be in Washington visiting our family there , so we celebrated the week before on Easter Sunday. My mom made Mason a train cake and surprised me with a camera cake!
On Mason's actual birthday, Mackenzie stayed home from school and we celebrated at the zoo! It was a perfect day to spend at the zoo. After our Zoo day, we ordered steamed dumplings for dinner- Mason's favorite- and watched Cars. After all of that, he was exhausted and even requested to be put to bed!
A big bright spot in the day was when Mack and Mike got to feed the Larakeets. They talked and talked about how much fun that was! Those photos are on Mike's phone so I will get them on the computer and post them soon.

| Look what sprouted from our jelly bean seeds |
 |
| I was surprised when Mack asked to have Cheerios for breakfast on Easter morning. I thought she'd much rather scour her Easter basket . Then I saw that she had a creative thought in mind |
 |
| Mason was very excited to be the center of attention but he did not like being sung to. |
 |
| You're two now, Mason. It's time you start carrying your share of the load. |

| The last time I rode on a carousel with Mackenzie, I had to stand next to her to hold her up! |

After a long, exhausting birthday, Mason was carried to the car atop his daddy's shoulders. With a stop in the gift shop, a drink of cold water and his binky, he snuggled in for a short nap on the way home.

Catch me up!
 |
| Gunner is my co-pilot! The smile he gets on his cute puppy face when he gets to go out is so heart warming. |
 |
| My birthday dinner at PF Changs- Mason had the whole section laughing as he was belly laughing at Mike's funny faces. |
 |
| Post birthday dinner excursion to a cool bookstore! Mase like the parking lot views best. |
 |
| Guess who has a new big kid desk! |
 |
| Gunner started out for our run smiling, however, that vanished a few miles in. He was ready to go home and he took his time getting there. |

Beautiful beyond words

| Mackenzie likes having her picture taken. You can see that she is a beautiful model. You can definitely tell when she's done, though. All photos are copyrighted by Mx4Photography |
District art show-2014
Mackenzie's artwork was one of only 50 to be chosen for display at the district art show. She was so proud of herself and excited to receive an award. Art has always been a big passion for Macky. Being at school, she's loved having art class and her art teacher notices that.
