It's Birthday Time for MASON!!











It is so hard to believe that Mason has arrived at his one year mark!




It seems it was not that long ago that we were wondering if he was going to be born on Grandpa's birthday!! What an exciting time!! David called to let us know he had finally arrived, we left to be with Garrett when he opened his mission call, and the next morning I got on a plane for Omaha!! What a beautiful baby boy!




WE LOVE YOU MASON!! Have a wonderful day!! Take lots of pictures :)




Here's a couple of our favorites!!

February 18--Happy Happy Birthday Neil--Missing You

Dad is trekking around the Netherlands, meeting potential customers and gearing up for the Euro Ag Show in Paris on Monday!! It sounds like everything is going smoothly! It seems odd to be wishing "happy birthdays" when we are so far apart! We did a little celebrating before he left, but it doesn't seem like we did the occasion justice--especially since today is the day and our celebrating was nearly a week ago!!

Sooo, here's is a huge birthday wish from Declo all the way to Dad in the land of the wooden shoes!! Hope you have a great day and that your day isn"t all work! Dad was hoping to go to the temple at the Hague tomorrow and maybe even make a trip over to Fredericksborg Castle. We hope to see some quality photos and stories.

I'm so thankful for such a great husband and father for all of you. You won't find a more patient or thoughtful man who is as concerned for the welfare of his family--not to mention all the fun times along the way, made possible because of his own love of play--and his hard work!

I love you and look forward to your return!!
