Little Stevens' Stories: It’s Party Time!

January was a month of PARTYING! Since a picture is worth a thousand words, I will merely do a few one liners and let the pictures do most of the talking.

The First Party: Aaron, Brit, June, and Logan all came down from Washington for Adam’s farewell. Since June and Morgan both have January birthdays we decided to have a combined “cousin party”. It was awesome! There were bright streamers, m&m pillows, balloons galore, party hats, party blowers and ice cream cake. Most of Rob’s family were able to join us!

And this is Morgan eating the cake:

A few days later, Mason went to his first ever big-boy birthday party. A friend in the ward was turning four, and his cute mom decorated everything in Lightning McQueen and racing!

It was a big hit with Mason :)

Last weekend we went down to Fillmore just to visit. We LOVE going down there, and this was no exception. Grandma made a yummy chocolate cake with pudding and whip cream. It was divine. As Morgan’s face will attest:

Mason did some great singing also:

Morgan’s actual birthday was this past Tuesday, January 31st. He made it a whole year under his parents’ watch! What a brave boy! Rob was able to take the day off, so we went down to Salt Lake and went to the Discovery Gateway Children’s Museum. It was AMAZING! There were all these tubes that sucked balls up into the air and wind tunnels, and magnets, and a HELICOPTER! That was Mason’s favorite…or the wind tunnel…he did stay there for a good 30 minutes. Morgan was silent about his favorite part. The mall’s food court is only 50 yrds away too, so getting lunch was easy. They were having a special during the month of January where you could take $12 of a 6 or 12 month pass; in addition just for that day you could put your admission towards a pass so…we were able to buy a 6 month pass for less than what we would have had to pay to go again. Soooo worth it! Mason asks every day if we can go to the “new Treehouse”.

On the way back we stopped by Cold Stone for dessert; and Mason (being my son) decided to eat all of my ice cream and then proceed to demand a donut once we got back out into the parking lot. We obliged him.

Some other things we’ve done this month:

1. Build snowmen
