Fun With Play-Doh

Quinn's first experience with play-doh was a fun one! He really enjoyed it. He especially liked it when we would use the cookie cutters to cut horses out for him!!

Irresistable Smile

Field Trip

I had the priviledge of going on one of Cade's class field trips. We went to the Post Office, Fire Station and Police Station. They enjoyed getting to sit in a fire truck, look in a police car, and see all the behind the scenes activities at the post office (which is really quite incredible if you've never seen it). We were the last group to go to the fire station, and they actually got called out while Cade was sitting in the fire truck! You should have seen all of their faces when the firefighters came running to the truck and ambulance!
Cade and his friend Michael loved checking out the police car!

Haaaattttt. . .

Cade left his Colts hat laying on the floor. I kept hearing Quinn say "haaaatttt". When I walked around the corner he had Cade's hat and was trying to put it on! So cute!

Jumping in the leaves

Today the boys jumped in a HUGE pile of leaves at Grandma and Grandpa M's house. Cade was so excited when we pulled up and saw the size of the pile, that he didn't want to eat lunch. So, of course he had a great time as my Dad threw him into the pile. However, he squealed with excitement, which Quinn interpreted as him being hurt. Therefore, Quinn was NOT thrilled with the leaves. It took him quite a while to get up the nerve just to walk near the pile, but eventually, he conceded!

Cade the Artist!

For someone who "doesn't care for Art", we think Cade is doing a great job. He brought these beauties home last week and told me all about the artists that he modeled the work after. (Jasper Johns and Piet Mondrian) I'm so glad he is taking an interest. He was, and is, very proud of his work.

Mast Family Kiddos

We had an early Christmas celebration with the Mast side of the family (my Mom's side), and with some coaxing, bribery and threatening, we were able to get all the kids in one picture! I actually think it turned out great! From Left. . .Jack, Madison, Quinn, Cade, Dayna, Mallory and Michael. There were many pictures that weren't so great. . . but I just shared those with family!! :)

Blast Off

Grandma and Grandpa M had bought Cade a Rocket for his birthday. Today my Dad (Grandpa M), Cade and I set it off! It was priceless. It is powered by vinegar and baking soda. Needless to say, Cade ran for cover (bottom picture) while Dad and I got showered with vinegar!
