The Best Pet of All

 Last year, the boys received the best book from Aunt Kelli....The Best Pet of All by David LaRochelle. Pop had the pleasure of reading this to Mason on Saturday night. The gist of the story is a boy keeps asking his Mom for a dog, and she keeps saying No. She finally agrees to let the boy have a dragon for a pet, but he's a very bad pet. The boy then convinces his mom that a dog would get rid of the dragon, so they get a dog.

We didn't start with a dragon, but the boys did wear us down on getting a dog. Dash has been a wonderful addition to our family, and as you can see below....he truly is the Best Pet of All.

 It's nice now that Braden can read, he reads to us and even sometimes Mason, instead of us reading to him.

 Doesn't everyone need a batting helmet to play in the sprinkler? Just so you know this started as a batting practice for Mason, before he decided to get the sprinkler out.

We are the luckiest family ever to have Master Griller, Blake Benson to cook the most delicious meals for us! Thank you, Blake!
