Our month in review

This is a very long post.. It's all the stuff I meant to post during the last month but never got around to. I realized we had a lot going on this month.......

Our trip to Vegas!

We had a great time. We saw two shows, Jabbawockeez and Ka, they were the highlight of the trip. It was really fun just spending uninterrupted time together. I wish we could get away every month!



Our hotel. It was pretty sweet.









The Jabbowaockeez set. I wish we had a pic of the Ka set, it was incredible. But we lost our camera right before the show, luckily we got it back.



Easter



We got back from Vegas the night before Easter. Not really the best time to be in Vegas really.



Indoor egg hunt



Mason loves chewing on balls and ripping them apart.





Our best family shot. Only took 15 tries :)



Cousins


Sick Baby



Mason was sick for almost a whole week. He was so sad. It was a tough week. But he was soo cuddly and slept on me most of the day. I really cherished that time since he rarely sits still at all these days.





Still not feeling great, but got some great shots of him sitting with Poppop...



and Grammy



Good Bye Paul and Julie!

Paul and Julie are off to North Carolina so Paul can go to seminary. We had the family altogether before they left.



Cousins



Grandparents and grandkids



The whole fam

We miss you guys!!!


Alyssa's Dance Recital

Alyssa had her first dance recital and it was so cute! She was so excited to have a pretty costume and dance on the stage. She had some classic moments, one where she forgot the dance and did the end pose about 30 seconds too early. It was a fun experience for her.



Little Ballerina





Tap dance, "You've got a Friend in Me" from Toy Story





Ballet dance, "Stay Awake", from Mary Poppins

Here she is laying on the floor, which is how they were supposed to end, but she laid down way too early and stayed there until most of the class had left the stage. Silly girl :)




Flowers from Mommy and Daddy





Beautiful Ballerina. One of my favorite pictures of her.


Mason's Baby Dedication

We had Mason dedicated to the Lord, last weekend, May 15th.

We were glad most of our family could be there.



We chose Ephesians 3:16-19 as Mason's verse...

16 I pray that out of his glorious riches he may strengthen you with power through his Spirit in your inner being, 17 so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith. And I pray that you, being rooted and established in love, 18 may have power, together with all the Lord’s holy people, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ, 19 and to know this love that surpasses knowledge—that you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God.






We pray that Mason will grow up to be a man of God, that he will grasp the love of God and that he will be filled with His fullness.
