Growing Up.

Updates galore.

Thanksgiving. Was pretty awesome. We stayed in Rexburg. Just the three of us. I cooked an entire dinner and it was delish. For dessert we went over to the Lyon's house and had pie. Again, delish. It also happened to be the night that we found out that Mace would give hugs. Adorbz.

Graduation. It happened. My feet killed. Just killed. I suppose it's my fault for wearing brand new shoes (literally. bought that day) It was fun though. My parents, Brandon's parents, two of my sisters, Brandon's brother and one sister, two of his aunts. Lots of people. Lots of stress. But we did it. Brandon graduated in Computer Science, I graduated in Accounting. Mason decided the night before graduation would be a great time to cut his first tooth. That coupled with him being with a babysitter the entire day before while we had movers come and pack up all our stuff made for a pretty unpleasant weekend. Oh well. It's over now. Side note. Movers are AWESOME. Despite the fact that they took like a bagillion smoke breaks, it was great. They are fast. I was in awe.

Christmas. Mason's 1st Christmas. He is one spoiled little boy! It really is the only way to describe it. I got Brandon and I matching pjs. Mason had some too, not matching ours, but cute. He loved the attention, got pretty good at ripping off wrapping paper, and had a great 1st Christmas.

Moving. Yes. We moved. To Maryland. It's weird being somewhere more permanent for once. Since being married (it was 4 years in December! Woah!) we have never lived somewhere for more than 9 months. I think it has been 8 moves? (1..2..3..4..5..6..7..8. yep) A lot. So it's weird. But nice.

Mason had a birthday! That one deserves and exclamation point. He did. I can't believe how big he is. He is definitely a toddler now. Walking, practically running now, saying words, signing even more, wow. He is amazing. He is so smart. And active. Whew he is active. But really a great little boy. He eats anything and everything. Doesn't really matter if he doesn't like it. It's food. He will eat it. He has really thinned out since he started walking everywhere, so he is almost 24 pounds and 30 in tall! Definitely didn't get the height from me. Cake pictures to come. It was pretty epic. We have been staying with Brandon's parents while we look for a house....which brings me to the growing up.

WE FOUND ONE. Yep. We bought a house. Well technically not yet. But almost! We close in 2 months. But won't move in until beginning of August. But it is awesome. I love it. Heavenly Father has definitely been looking out for us.

So we are growing up. Buying a house. Moving across the country. Having a 1 year old. I do miss the college life. I'm still learning how to not be a student. And a shut-in. But we'll get there someday.

That's about it! Pictures to come.
