Austin's first fieldtrip!

Well Austin got to go on his first official school frieldtrip on Tuesday. We went to the pumpkin patch. It was kind of a chill, damp day but the kids had a really fun time. They got to play in corn, feed the animals, have lunch and pick out a pumpkin. Austin's highlight although was getting to ride the school bus!! And who do you think he sat with on his first bus ride? His sweet mother? NO, Vivianna! The cutest little girl! They had so much fun and it was so much fun watching them get so excited!!

Austin also loves school so much that when we got back to school he was VERY sad that he did not get to do his normal Tuesday day at school!! Here are some pictures!




Austin's class, Yes there are only 4!


Feeding the goats with Ben and Vivianna

Just like Austin!

So recently Campbell has become a little copycat of Austin. Everything he does she has to have or try herself. The other day I saw him jump off one of our chairs in the family room and the next thing I saw was Campbell standing on the same chair jumping off just like Austin! Sunday morning the kids were in the family room playing and I had some of Austins laundry in there so Campbell decided she need to wear underwear just like he had on. So these are a few pictures of her trying to put them on herself!!

Apple picking!!

On Saturday we went apple picking with our care group from church. The kids had a great time picking apples and picking out their pumpkins! I don't have a picture of it but Amy Scoggins just about mastered the technique of feeding apples to massive cows! Don't really know if cows are suppose to eat whole apples, but they did and looked pretty excited about it! Here are some pictures!

A fine Sunday!

So we woke up this morning and this is what we saw out our back door! I guess they were having some issues because they finally after a few attempts to take off again packed up the balloon and left. Austin thought it was very cool. Last weekend we went and saw the balloon race in forest park so this morning he was sure that this was one of the balloons from the race! We tried to tell him probably not, but he firmly insisted it was!




After church and naps we went to the park down the street for a little play time before dinner! Campbell loves to follow Austin around and do everything he does! She is definitly our little dare devil! Although I think Jason looks the most frightened in this picture!!

Something about me!

Well I have thought about it for a long time and I finally decided to go ahead and give it a try. I have recently started a cookie business! I have been decorating sugar cookies for a while and I really enjoy doing it and I think it will be a great business to have and also allow me to still be at home with the kids! Our wonderful friend Chuck Scoggins designed me a wonderful website so now I am officially in the cookie business. The website is masonhillcookies.com, Mason Hill is our new address so I thought it was only fitting since I bake them here it should also be the name! Any way go have a look!

More about the kids!

Things have been going really well lately. Austin is loving school and is very excited for Tuesdays and Thursdays! We just had a wonderful weekend. We all went Friday night to my cousin's sons soccer game and Austin thought that was really cool! On saturday we went to the balloon race down in Forest park. Both Austin and Campbell got a huge kick out of seeing all the balloons take off! Today I used craigslist for the first time and bought some outside toys for the kids. It is so nice to have grass out back now for the kids to run around in! Here are a few pictures from this afternoon

This is what happens when your brother spins to fast!!

She's not so sure in the beginning

First Day of School!

Austin had his first day of school today and he loved it! We had lunch with daddy and then we took him to his room. There was one moment that he looked at me like, are you really leaving? So I just left hoping he would be okay! He came out when I picked him up with a huge smile on his face and looking exhausted!
