Mason's Week!

Well, I must say that this was Mason's week.  His birthday present was delivered on Monday.  A HUGE lego set.  We spared no expense on this one.  This was the only thing that he asked for for his birthday, Lego's.  So as the doting parents that we are, we delivered.  He was given a smaller set and then the ginormous set.  So Monday night he set right to work putting together the smaller set.  He got up early the next morning to finish it up.  Then by Wednesday, he got to work on the BIG one.  This set had almost 2200 pieces.  It took Mason, his friend Jackson and Sydney 3 days to put it together.  It is totally awesome.  I know I am such a geek, but what better way to promote their creative thinking and cognitive skills!


 This set has 3 different interactive layers.  The bottom is where you come in and get tickets and refreshments.  The second layer has the movie theatre with reclining seats and everything.  Then there is another set of stairs that takes you up to the roof.

Sydney was not very happy with all the attention going towards Mason, so we are thinking that she will get the next set for her birthday, and that will give me a chance to get a good price on it.  Boy won't Wes be Jealous!!

On another note, it being Mason's week and all, he got his braces put on this week!  I had to hurry and get a picture of him this morning to send to Wesley, so I had to wake him up!  So here is the brace face man himself!

The first 2 days were pretty miserable, but he is getting used to them now.  We had his friend party on Friday and had banana splits for treats, such that it would be easy to eat.  We actually invited GIRLS and his guy friends.  We played some games and watched Enders Game.  I think he had a great time.
Hope you all have a wonderful week.  We have spring break, so we will get a lot of stuff done in the garden, YEAH!

Enjoy!
