Flashback Friday!!!

I haven't done a flashback for a long time. This picture was taken during one of many "Circus Circus" adventures in Vegas. As a child, our family would drive to Arizona for Thanksgiving. Most of the time we would stay at "Circus Circus". So this is us (The Mason kids), with the stuffed animals we won and our faces painted. We got progressively better at the games as we got older and would come home with more stuffed animals and bigger stuffed animals. The tradition of being with my family in the room afterward was fun for me but as for the casino itself and the circus act; all those did for me were produce major anxiety. I was a pretty nervous kid.

Happy Birthday Sage!

Sage's birthday was on Sunday the 7th but this post took a long time to assemble since we didn't have a digital camera when Sage was a baby and I had to find and scan pictures.

Sage had a rough start...


After she was born she had to stay at Primary Children's Hospital until her lungs were strong enough. (2 wks.)


She was the most easy going baby I ever had. (9 mos.)


A first attempt at getting things herself. These days she always wants someone to get everything for her. (2 yrs)


(2 yrs.)

Sage has adored Ashley from the start. The easiest way to get her to do something is to talk about Ashley doing it. (3 yrs.)

(4 yrs.)


(5 yrs.)


6 Year Birthday Picture!


I'm so thankful to have such a sweet little girl as my daughter.

Redemption...

Luke and Jacob have redeemed their masculinity. The next week when the Larrabees and Noyes' came to see us Jacob had a new cowboy costume from Grandpa Tom and Grandma Ruby so they dressed up like cowboys this time.
