Just what I wanted.

Mother's Day was so great this year!

I told Chris all I wanted was a nice happy day.

I woke up to breakfast in bed, the kids gave me all their wonderful cards and crafts they made in school, church was wonderful {minus a few minutes of some seriously bad attitude from Ellie right when we walked into sacrament...late}, Chris made dinner, we visited family and I got a love note on my pillow before I went to bed.

A wonderful day indeed.

Happy Mother's Day!

Lisa and Taylor

Taylor was such a sweet heart and wrote a little note to her grandma, all her aunts and both great grandmas for Mother's Day. Each one said something different pertaining to that individual. The funniest one was the one she wrote to her aunt Lisa. Sorry the picture is a little blurry. At the bottom she quoted a line from Nacho Libre, "Do you not realize I have had diarrhea since Easters?!" She is the BEST 7 year old movie quoter I know! She has the accent down and everything! It is so hilarious to hear her! She and her aunt Lisa always have the best time quoting. She is such a funny girl!

We have the best ward ever! All the mother's got a CD called "For the Beauty of the Earth" after sacrament. Then in relief society they served us lunch. We had a chicken wrap, pasta and a chocolate dipped strawberry. It was all sooo yummy! It was the 3rd year that they have done this. The next relief society presidency better keep this up when it is their turn! It's such a great idea and special treat for all of us women!

For Mother's Day Chris got me exactly what I wanted...The Work and the Glory lll!

I love those movies! And I love it when he remembers things that I have said I want!

Taylor wrote me a sweet note. Your hand is NEVER too big to trace! Chris and I still trace our hands if we have room. And it's always fun to add some jewelry!



Gifts from Peyton, Ellie (made at church) and Taylor (made the lai at school)


Envelope by Preston

Preston made this card in school! Isn't it so cute?!
After he gave this to me he said, "It's ok if I eat some too."
I'm not a candy person in the morning so I let the kids eat it all up.



I had such a great Mother's Day! I got to sleep in and Chris gave me breakfast in bed! He does that for me every year and I love it! Getting ready for church wasn't fun and I yelled at the kids to hurry and get ready cuz they just ignored me. So then I felt like a crappy mom, especially after all the cute gifts they gave me. Church was nice. The primary age kids got up to sing a song for all the mothers. So everyone, but Peyton went up. It was a special treat and a bitter sweet moment to see 3 of my kids up there! They are just growing up way too fast!
After church we came home and I called my mom and chatted with her for a bit and then I got to take a nap! I slept so good! I needed it big time! Then we went to Chris' parents house and had dinner and played a game called Imagine Iff. It was a fun day and night.
I just want to say I have the most wonderful husband! He made my day so special and forgave me pretty quickly for yelling before church. He's so great and makes me feel so loved and like I am the most beautiful woman! He puts up a lot from me and I appreciate him so much! I'm so blessed to have him as my husband!!!
