The Best Day

Yesterday the boys had pretty much the best day two little boys could have. First we went to the Y with my mom to go swimming. We pretty much had the whole pool to ourselves and we all had so much fun. Chase went down the frog slide a hundred times and practiced swimming under water, he wanted me to stand in the pool and he would swim under my legs. Mason climbed the steps to the frog slide a hundred times but was only brave enough to go down it a couple of times. After that, we went to (where else) McDonalds for happy meals, then we got ice cream, then we went to the humane society to pick out a puppy. I mean really, what more could two boys ask for in a day??

It's like a mini water park that we had all to ourselves!



This is us meeting our puppy for the first time.


We saw the puppy on the website Saturday night, he was to be up for adoption on Sunday and we went to the shelter to see him on Monday. Mason has been so scared of animals that we knew we needed to get him a puppy to grow up with so he could get used to being around animals. So far, so good. We knew we wanted him when we saw him yesterday, but he had to get "fixed" before we brought him home, so we got to pick him up today. After many many names Chase thought of, the official puppy name is Bailey.


Here are the boys loving on their new puppy before heading to bed early. (Tomorrow Chase starts 4 year old preschool!)
