Cousin Colby is visiting and told Mason she looks beautiful today! So sweet!

Mason's two top teeth has cut through and she has her bottom right tooth next to her two front bottom teeth!!

Splash Park

Today we went to the Splash pad park...

Corben wanted to wear all his water gear, but then was shy when we got to the park...

so we went to the slides first.

Sister climbing right behind Corben

Then we walked back over the water area and I put Mason in her suit...

and Corben was also ready to get wet!

Splashing

She is such a water girl and loved getting wet!

Notice Corben is stepping on the water and it is spraying sister

Venturing out into another water sprayer

Corben then decided it was time for a lunch snack...

so both kids ate and and watched all the other kids

With help....Corben went up the rock wall

Corben starting climbing all by himself!
