iphoto pond pics….
breaking ground
Tuesday, January 31st, 2012Jason has been talking about building a pond in our backyard for awhile. He came up with a plan and finally started it! we are all so excited to see it finished!
Peyton and Jayden had a great time digging in the dirt and finding worms.
and then took time out for four wheeling!
Gone Fishin’
Sunday, January 8th, 2012Jason wanted to take the boys fishing, so we went to a local park that has a big pond. it was a great day, not too cold or warm…. and a great day for fishing!
Jayden caught the first fish!
After a second worm, Peyton caught a fish too!
nice fishy!
Peyton and Jayden ran around the park while Jason tried to catch a catfish….
we waited….
and waited….
and finally!
a whopper, as Peyton called it!
Yay Daddy!
what you talkin’ bout fish?
Love my Mester men!

Peyton’s first playdate
Friday, December 30th, 2011believe it or not we have never had an actual ‘playdate’…. we have had parties and met up at gymboree before but never ‘Hey can your child come play at our house’ kind of playdate. sounds awful I guess, but honestly Peyton and Jayden play so well together we never really thought about inviting anyone over just to play, until now! Peyton’s friend, Payne has been talking to Peyton about a playdate so we thought we would have him over during Christmas break. we walked to the park after playing at our house a little while. they had a lot of fun!
the swings….
football…
climbing crazy trees….
BFFs!
iphoto playdate fun….
Merry Mester Christmas!
Sunday, December 25th, 2011Peyton ran into our room about 6:30 this morning whispering ‘Mommy, Daddy, I think Santa was here! I saw a whole bunch of stuff!’ we let him lay down with us to wait on Jayden to wake up but it didn’t work. he was so excited, we told him he could wake Jayden up and then come back into our room. he went into Jayden’s room and all we heard through the monitor was ‘Jayden Santa was here!’ They both ran back into our room and jumped on the bed with us. honestly I think that is my favorite part of Christmas morning every year, the excitement in their voices and the anticipation of running into the living room to see everything!
waiting patiently for Daddy to start coffee and for me to get my cameras ready….
they kinda skimmed over everything and then went for the stockings….
then they went back to their gifts and the craziness started!
motorcycle races….
new shoes….
and THE CLAW! Jayden was so excited! he had been asking for ‘the claw’ since last summer….
the microphone!
a VTech lap top for Jayden….
and a Leap Pad Tablet for Peyton….
a keyboard!
and Golden Tee for Daddy….
a very Merry Christmas!
we got dressed and ready for Bunny, Poppy, and Grandpa to come over. Peyton just HAD to wear the same shirt he slept in and both boys wore their new cowboy boots!
presents from Aunt Tracy and Uncle Scott! And Bunny’s famous guacamole!
Merry Christmas from the Mesters and Fishers!

Ho Ho Kindergarten!
Wednesday, December 14th, 2011Santa came to Peyton’s school today. he usually flys in on a helicopter but it was pouring outside so he came by car and walked through the halls of the school. everyone was so excited as they waited in the hall!
waiting for a Santa high five!
But Peyton got a Santa hug!
Jayden got a hug as well, but I wasn’t quick enough with my camera….
he also got a quick hug from Rudolph and a high five from Frosty!
when we got home Jayden was quick to tell me that it was not the REAL Santa at Peyton’s school today.
Me: ‘Why do you think that wasn’t the real Santa?’
Jayden: ‘Cuz him was clean. Him not real. The real Santa dirty.’

annual Mester Christmas card
Wednesday, December 14th, 2011every year while we are vacationing in Florida we take our family Christmas picture. I plan the outfits WAY ahead of time and I am so thankful everyone agrees with what I choose for them to wear.
this year we decided to take our picture on the bridge outside our condo. I put my camera on a barstool (professional I know), set the settings, and took this picture to make sure everything was how I wanted it….
then it started to rain.
So about 30 minutes later we tried again….
Yay it’s over!
Merry Christmas!
Santa!
Tuesday, December 13th, 2011while Peyton was at school and Jayden was napping our Elf was busy putting crafts together and writing a note to the boys saying Santa wanted to see them today!
Jayden couldn’t wait for Peyton to get home from school.
the craft was a snowman they had to decorate, then write their Christmas list for Santa.
Peyton wrote his list this year (a first!) and I let Jayden tell me what he wanted his to say…. and by the way, when my boys say’computer’ they mean vtech/leappad NOT a real computer. we are not quite ready for the real deal yet!
Jayden signed his letter with a big backwards J….
ready to go!
we have been visiting Santa at Bass Pro Shop the past few years. every time we have gone we have been impressed with how organized it is and the fun things they have to do while you wait. it went great again this year! while I waited in line Jason walked around with the boys and played a few games.
then Santa was ready!!!! the boys ran to him!
Santa took his time to read both lists…. Jayden thought he was silly.
Thank you Santa, and Bass Pro Shop! (gotta love the free pictures they give you!)
Merry, Merry!
Saturday, December 10th, 2011Peyton and I talked Jason into getting a real Christmas tree for the kitchen again this year. Peyton even offered to spend his own money for one! Which we didn’t use but it was so sweet of him to offer. Jason, of course, gave in…. I mean who wouldn’t when a 6 yr old is pulling money out of his own wallet!
can you tell how excited Jason is about the new tree?
it didn’t take long for Elfafin to find it….
I think we might be done decorating for now…. I REALLY need to start shopping!
