Babysitting Mason and Quincy 10/20/2007 : Chad and I went to SLC to babysit Mason and Quincy!  Mason and I had a great time carving a pumpkin while Chad and Quincy bonded.  Both kids were so sweet tonight!  I brought the birthday gift I had made Mason tonight and hid it in his room for him to find!  Then we read the ABC scrapbook together before he went to bed.  I sure love those kids.  I love being an Aunt!  It's the best job in the world!

Anna's 25th birthday celebration...5 months late : For my 25th birthday, my mom sent me a gift card to the Melting Pot (yummy!).  We went with Jotham and Ruth to celebrate about a month and a half ago but the card had not been activated!  Then, we went again on the 20th of July to officially celebrate once the card had been activated!  My birthday was back in February but I'm not complaining!  We had delicious cheese and chocolate fondue!  It made me very happy!  Had a great time celebrating with my hubby and Jotham and Ruth!

Celebrating Chad's 28th birthday and Jotham's 27th birthday! : February 13, 2007 Chad turned 28 years old!  For his birthday my parents sent Chad a nice gift certificate to Outback Steak House.  We wanted to celebrate with Jotham, Ruth, and Mason so we all met up for a delicious mouth watering tummy filling dinner!  We hadn't had a chance to celebrate Jotham's 27th birthday, which was a month previous, so tonight we celebrated both birthdays!  It is always fun to get together and be able to enjoy a wonderful meal thanks to Ma and Pa Manwaring!

Seven Peaks Water Park with Mason 6 2007 : Chad and I went with Ruth, Jotham and Mason to Seven Peaks Water park!  It was Mason's first trip to a water park like this and he had a great time!  He was a little timid about the water slides as he didn't like the water splashing in his eyes but he loved spending the day in the wave pool and lazy river.  He did enjoy going on the green slide featured in the first picture as Jotham lifted him up at the very end so that he didn't get water in his eyes. :)  We had a great time relaxing, munching on delicious snacks, and riding the slides!

Mason and the Discovery Museum! : March 3, 2007 I went with my mom and Mason to the Discovery Museum in SLC.  It was such a fun museum!  I had a blast myself even though it is designed for kids!  Mason had fun playing with all the exciting things available and spent an extra long time in the "construction zone."  The only downer of the day was that Mason was sick so he was a little sluggish all day.  That was a little sad.  He's such a sweetheart. But we had a great time together.

Jotham's 26th Birthday : We celebrated Jotham's 26th birthday a little early (on the 7th instead of the 12th).  We went to Benihamas Tempanyaki and Sushi and then went bowling afterwards.  It was a fun night!  While we were bowling, Chad's sister, Elizabeth delivered her twins, Leah and Logan MacAskill.  Definately a night to remember!

Trip to Gardner's Village 10/2006 : Fall is in full force and Halloween is at the door!  The leaves are falling, the days are becoming shorter, the air is crisper, and it is wonderful!  One weekend when my mom was visiting from AZ, we went with Jotham, Ruth, and Mason to Gardner's Village.  Gardner's Village in SLC is the cutest little village of crafty shops and goodies.  It is highly decorated for Halloween with fun halloween decorations and activities for kids of all ages.  It was a fun day!

October Fest 2006 : October Fest at Snowbird Ski resort above Salt Lake City!  Chad and I went with Jotham, Ruth, and Mason to partake of this traditional German Festival.  Jotham is wearing a traditional Austrian hat.  You may say he is connecting with his roots!  Go Das Germans!  Here in Utah, we've been having some pretty cold weather and there was snow on the ground up the Canyon!  The leaves haven't even fully changed yet!  It's not even October yet!  Crazy!  But it was a really fun time.  We ate Bratwurst and apple strudle and enjoyed great entertainment by some Yodelers wearing Laderhoisen!

Meeting Baby William : Little William Manwaring has arrived and we love him so much!  Chad has already nicknamed him William the Conqueror or Sir William.  Chad and I LOVE having nephews!!!  And babies are just so sweet!  Hopefully our nephews will help stave off Chad's baby hunger. :)  No other experience compares to holding little babies and I can't get enough of holding little William!  So lucky to be close to them...at least until Preston, Emily, and Family move to Dartmouth...

Of course we took advantage and went to the beach and as the pictures speak for themselves, it was georgeous!  Chad had a couple yummy birthday dinners and was spoiled by his parents for his birthday (as he should be)!  It was a great mini vacation from snowy Utah and a stressful semester!

Babysitting Mason 3/3/2006 : Chad and I got to babysit Mason and we had such a good time!  I took Mason to my friend Kelly's house to meet her bunny rabbit and to play on her playground.  Mason LOVED the bunny!  he'd put his head on it and snuggle.  It was very sweet.  Later we played with Mason at home with Chad and his friend Dan, who was visiting from CA.  Mason loved a birthday balloon I had and we'd hide it from him and he'd ask over and over, "Lalloon? Lalloon?"  SO CUTE!  He also loved it when Uncle Chad bounced him on our pink exercize ball.  Mason is such a joy to us!

Jotham and Ruth's Visit to CA, Summer 2004 : Jotham and Ruth came to visit Chad and I for a few days in California.  We had a great time hanging out at the beach and seeing the sights.  Jotham had never been to San Fran so we spent a day there, as well as taking a little road trip to Monterey and seeing the Aquarium.  We also visited the Santa Cruz Redwood Trees.  We loved spending time with Jotham and Ruth, who are some of our favorite people and friends.
