MERRY CHRISTMAS

HAPPY HOLIDAYS TO EVERYONE! Hope all is well with your families and everyone is healthy this holiday season.
All is well in the Peck household. We were so excited to share Christmas with Mason this year and it was a very exciting one with him being in the house. He absolutely loved presents and especially Santa Claus. He is still walking around the house asking Santa come out and bring more presents. Today he would come up to me and ask for more presents.

We went to Santa's Castle and I really was worried about how he would react to Santa but he told him that he wanted Barney and kept telling him Thank You Santa even as we were walking out the door. Later Santa made another visit Christmas Eve at my parents house to check on Mason once again and he just went crazy--he stayed real close to me but loved having him there at the same time.





This was Christmas Eve after the girls Christmas program. He is so mischevious and always getting into something. But I love that about him, he keeps us on our toes and we are always laughing. He has brought so much joy to this family and I can't say it enough. If anyone asks him "Who's boy are you" and he always replies, "I'm a mama's boy"







I know I am their mother but are they not gorgeous?

The girls and I tried to get Mason to participate in a group phote for cards but he would have no part of it, he would come in and take off as soon as I took the picture. It actually looks like they might even like eachother in this shot.



















Once again Merry Christmas & have a safe and happy New Year!

Together once again.

Alexander & Mason once again but in Garner, Iowa.

We met Alexander's family on our trip to bring Mason home. We actually spent most of our time with them and created a very special friendship. The boys were in the same orphanage but in different buildings so we always rode together to our visits. Kristen has a sister that lives in Garner (they are from Michigan) so we took the opportunity of them visiting & being so close to get together. It was so nice to get together and talk about how the boys have grown, hopefully it is something we can do often.

A couple of weeks ago my sister and her 3 kids along with my 3 and myself drove to Wisconsin to stay at a waterpark for a weekend getaway. It was nice just to get away and the kids had a ball. Mason had a great time in the water and went strong from morning to night.

SANTA'S LITTLE HELPER, ELF MASON. He loves wearing his hat and this day it happen to go up over his ears. WHAT A HANDSOME YOUNG FELLOW.

Much love from the Peck's and we hope you all have a safe and happy holiday.
