8 is GREAT!!

Today is Mason's 8th birthday. Such an exciting age. Brian will be out of town tonight so we gave presents and had cake last night. A nice surprise for the birthday boy. He loved all of his gifts, but I think his favorite is his very own Bible and Book of Mormon. He was very excited to use his Book of Mormon this morning when we read scriptures as a family. Eight reasons why Mason is great!!

  1. He is a very nice big brother. He involves Carson with whatever he is playing.
  2. He is affectionate. He will give hugs for no reason at all.
  3. He will do what he enjoys and is not swayed by others.
  4. He knows what he wants to be when he grows up. A mounted police officer.
  5. His laugh is contagious.
  6. He enjoys playing with friends, but doesn't mind playing by himself.
  7. He is helpful around the house.
  8. He tries hard to do what is right. He doesn't want to disappoint.

WE love you Mason!!! Happy Birthday!!!

We love Mason, too! I feel so lucky to be in Primary with him now. His spirit is amazing. What a great kid. I remember how tiny he was with all the cute blonde hair when you moved in. He still has the cute blonde hair, but he is not so tiny any more!!! :)
