A California Adventure

Mason's first trip to California proved to be another fun adventure. We drove and stayed in Reno, Nevada the first night with the Hill clan. Then we finished our weekend in Folsom. We had SO much fun with JP and Natalie. Way to show us a great time guys! Can't wait to come again! After that got to see Nicole and Sami our good friends from Houston. They were in Vacaville, how convenient for us :) Sami was born 2 weeks after Mason. Then the rest of the week was spent with our Hansen family in Sebastapol! We had so much fun on their horse ranch! Mason loved all of the animals he got to see, especially the horses! We also got to make it to some of the races to see them race!

Just to brag a little, I know this isn't that much, but I am pretty proud of myself for even getting up on the wakeboard after my 2 shoulder surgeries, a back surgery and having a my baby by c section 5 months ago...so yeah, I got up!

Rest of the week was spent at the horse ranch

Mason loved the horses! They would come right up to us, and he would start petting them no problem!

Photobucket

He also loved the Rabbits and the ducks....but goats? Not so much...

Photobucket

At the races. My uncles horse is behind us. He ran 3rd in that race.

Photobucket

Mason loved the pigs as well, but they just wanted to bite him so I couldn't get him too close.

Us with Shirley, Trevor and Ryan. Love these guys!

So glad we got a picture with Natalie. She wouldn't let us at first, but so glad she did! Wish we could see her more often!!

What an adventuring little boy! I adore his big beautiful eyes! He seems like such a smiley happy little man.

first off ... I am completely jealous of your trip to Cali. And second, I absolutely LOVE little Mason's bathing suit bottoms!
