Memorial Day

Well...we had a very memorable Memorial Day Weekend....Since things have been so crazy around here, we decided not to go to Maryland to visit Emily, Dan, and the new Luke Daniel ;-( Very sad....BUT we are happy to be traveling to MD at the end of the month....

So...instead of 12 hours in a car with a toddler...we got the veggie garden ready to plant, purged 6 garbage bags full of clothes from our closets, killed 2 mice that were inhabiting our pantry, watched Tim in the parade and visited with friends and family....4 whole days of family time...it was GREAT!!

Here are some pics. We paraded with Grams and Gramps. Grandma Bella bought Mason a pool...which he loves...and we cooked out with our good friends on Sunday....

Summer 'O Fun

Mason's Auntie Sigrid + her mom bought him this fun toy!! He loves it...and it took quite a bit of hot air to blow it up!! Looking forward to a summer of fun with this happy toddler...such a fun stage.



We went swimming at the indoor pool in Gram's development--so much fun!! Mason was having a blast trying to 'help' Grumpa put together Gram's new computer hutch. He heard Grumpa drilling from outside on the porch...opened the screen door and went inside to investigate. Went right up to where Grumpa was working and picked up a screwdriver and started 'helping'...PRECIOUS!!



Then...during dinner...which he wanted no part of...Mason got up and went to where Gram and Grumpa keep the dog's food... He set up a bowl for Razzle in the middle of the great room and started walking (and then running) back and forth depositing handfuls of dog food for Razzle to eat. He would wait for Razzle to start eating said deposit before husseling back for another load...I have it on video...now I just have to figure out how to upload video to this!!

The Best Blog

Per the urging of my sister, I have decided to start a blog to chronicle the day-to-day happenings in the Best Household...which includes Tim, Amy, Mason, and Baby-Best-To-Be...
