Labor Day Weekend

We stayed very busy over the Labor Day weekend. Friday afternoon, we went over to our friends Brad & Emily's for lunch. They have a little girl, Lilly, who is 2 weeks younger then Mason and she is absolutely adorable! We joke that Lilly and Mason will get married. They couldn't stop watching each other. It was so great to talk with friends who are at the same stage of life as us and understand what we are going through.

That evening, we went over to my sister's house to play with my nephews. I love being an aunt and Jared & Connor are a huge part of our lives. Both boys are in love with Mason. We worried that Connor would be jealous of Mason, but it's the complete opposite. Anytime Mason would get a little restless, Connor would drop what he was doing and run over and kiss Mason on the head. It was so sweet.

Saturday, Adam helped our friend David move, while Mason & I caught up on laundry at home. In the evening, we went out to The Woodlands for dinner. My best friend Jeanna celebrated a birthday earlier in the week and we all gathered to celebrate once more at The Cheesecake Factory(my fav). Her husband Trevor has always been nervous about babies, but Mason won him over very quickly with his smiles and good nature. I enjoy anytime I get to spend with Jeanna and her family and I know they were thrilled to meet Mason.

Sunday, we went out to Needville for our niece, Faith's, baptism. Adam's great uncle & aunt were in town from Pennsylvania and the last time we saw both of them, was our wedding. It was nice to have more time to visit with them and the rest of our family. One of Adam's little cousin's, Tommy, fell in love with Mason. He said that boy babies are cuter then girl babies...I think that has alot to do with the fact that he is a boy.

Monday we drove to Georgetown to visit my Great Grandma. My mom & dad drove up with Jared & Connor and Adam & I followed in our car. Granny was so excited to finally meet her great-great-grandson. Granny introduced all of us to all of her friends and just glowed everytime she got to hold Mason. I know it made her day and I'm glad that I got to spend time with her.

By the end of the weekend, I was ready for a long nap. It was nice to finally sit and relax Monday evening and not have any obligations. It's always good spending time with friends and family and after weekends like this past one, I can't help but consider myself blessed to have so many great people in my life.
