Fun at Gardner Village

One of Scott's friends runs the petting zoo and horse rides at Gardner Village. So we decided to go there for a family outing last weekend. It was really fun and Mason had a great time. McKenna was not happy. Scott had put a bag of sunflower seeds in the stroller and of course it attracted all the goats to the stroller. I was trying to fend off the little horned animals from my little girl while Scott was dying laughing. They have a lot of fun animals there just roaming around you and it is really cheap to go. Too bad they don't have a pass we can buy and take Mason all summer long. They have donkey's, goats, lamas, pigs, ducks, chickens, sheep, and horses. Mason stuck his finger in the chicken house and they pecked his finger and he looked startled then he laughed and did it again. He really liked the horse ride most of all.

This is why you don't turn your head for one second!

We were going to give Mason a bath and thought to ourselves "oh he's ok" so we went around the corner to get him a towell and this is what we found when we came back.





An impatient little man with all his clothes on still (including his shoes) sitting in the bath tub with the water still running. I just had to laugh and be thankful it wasn't something seriously horrible.

New Look!

So I decided to have a different look to my blog. Its cute and i like it! so i guess i will have to start saying more so you will have to read more!

Happy Mother's Day

Happy mother's day to all of you mother's out there. Mason made me this gift with alot of help from his teacher at day care. The little dots are his fingers dipped in the paint. I loved it. He was like "here you go, ma" I thought it was the sweetest thing. I love homemade gifts! sorry i couldn't get my computer to flip the picture. I am so bad at picture taking and cameras!

Fun with ducks!

By our house is a little creek/river of water that is home to ducks, geese, goats, and sea gulls. It is made to allow people to feed the ducks without getting near the water. It has a fence that surrounds it and a car pull over section to where you can stand in front of your car and feed the ducks. we took Mason there to feed the ducks. I am glad we did, Mason would have loved to be in the river instead of feeding the ducks. such a daddy's boy when it comes to the outdoors. Mason did a good job learning to tear the bread then throw it to the ducks. The first time I gave him a slice of bread he threw the whole thing and it was funny to watch the duck try to peck at it to swallow it. But once Mason got the hang of it, the whole loaf of bread was gone in minutes. It was a very fun day for all of us. McKenna was asleep in the car.
