Michael surprised me on our first wedding anniversary with a hot air balloon ride! We were supposed to go on Sunday (our anniversary), but the wind was too high, so it got postponed until Wednesday which ended up being a beautiful day! Here is our adventure!

We had visitors a few weeks ago and we stole some pix. Everyone has to take a picture with Mason! :) :) I couldn't decide which Sarah picture to put on the post, so I just put them all on here because they're all so good! :) Now we just need a picture of Mason and cousin Elizabeth then we'll have the whole Busse fam! :) :)

After Michael took some pictures of me and Mason on his first 4th of July, we were off to the fireworks with Grandma! Time for fireworks! Mason woke up for them and watched them in awe. He wasn't scared of them at all and he seemed to like them! The end! XOXO, The Buckleys
