Time Sure Flies

I don't know where the time goes these days.  My baby girl graduated from Highland High Preschool today.  She will be going to Kindergarten in August.  I'm not sure how I feel about all of this.  She is growing up way too fast.  Time needs to slow down just a bit.  I absolutely LOVE the stage Alyssa is in right now.  I've loved every stage of her life, but there is something about 4/5 year olds that is really special.  She is able to communicate everything she feels, thinks, etc. to me and she teaches me so much everyday.  She is so fun to just hang out with everyday.   I love her so much and can't imagine my life without her!  Here is a sneak peak of the pictures to come from her graduation when I have more time to post.

Easter 2011

It's been a long time since I posted anything on this blog.  As you can all tell, I'm not very good at blogging.  I find it more of a pain then anything.  I thought that I would try to be a little bit better about posting or there really is no point of me having a blog.  Here goes my attempt. 

We had such a great Easter.  In Alyssa's words, "This was the best Easter ever!"  She was so spoiled as usual.  Alyssa loved all three of the Easter egg hunts.  We had so much Easter candy I didn't even know what to do with it all.  Good thing all my sisters LOVE candy and did a pretty good job at eating the majority of it. :) 

Here are some of the picture highlights:


 I loved all the faces Alyssa made during the egg hunts.


 Alyssa LOVES PEZ, so she usally gets one for every holiday now. 
Here is her collection.  She LOVES it!

 This little duck was one of her favorite things in her Easter basket. 

 She was so excited to get Tangled in her basket.  In her words,
"This is the movie I've always wanted and have been bugging you about getting me.  You don't have to get it for me now becuase the Easter bunny did.  How did the Easter bunny know I wanted this movie so bad?"


 She found her basket behind this chair.  It didn't take her long to find.

 Pictures are out of order.  This is her getting ready to look for basket Easter morning.
 Her basket full of surprises from the Easter Bunny.


 We colored some eggs this year.  This was Alyssa first time coloring eggs.
 I think she enjoyed coloring them.  Her faces kind of tell it all.

 Here's the final product

Alyssa loves to touch and kiss my belly all day. 
 I LOVE how much she loves her sister already!!

All the Mason girls and dad.

Alyssa got some bubbles from the egg hunt. 
I thought this picture was so cute of her and her cousin Ashtyn blowing bubbles.


What a fun Easter.  I can't wait for next year!! 
Next year I will get to dress another cute girl in her cute Easter clothes! 
 I just LOVE Spring/Easter clothes!
