Happy Mother's Day



I'm a little late posting this, but I had a very nice Mother's Day and felt it worth to post about. We got up early (that wasn't the nice part, but it gets better) and drove to Fairfield. Bryan took the kids to church with his parents and I went with mom and Stacey out to breakfast, which is a tradition for us. This year Keianna and Jenae joined us for breakfast which was nice, because I don't get to spend a lot of time with them without all of kids around to distract me. Here are a few pictures from our breakfast...you will see why I couldn't eat anything else for awhile.
After breakfast we had another gathering at Grandma and Grandpa Collin's house. It was a very nice lunch, of course I was too full to totally enjoy but completely appreciated. The kids just love getting together with cousins, it's fun to watch. Unfortunately Bryan had to return home in the late afternoon to work, so Karen and Jenna offered to drive me and kids home later. It was nice to have the extra time to hang out and visit.
I love being a mom and I love that I live close enough to the people I love to share this day with. My mom and mother-in-law are both great examples to me. I love my kids, they make me smile, make me try harder, and make me want to be better. Emery brought me a picture she drew for me at school that was so cute. Kelci handed me a cute bracelet, that Emery actually made....don't ask. Cambree was so cute, she came up to me and said, "Mommy do you want mine?" I said sure, of course. She ran to the girls room and grab something they had drew and handed it to me. Her heart was in the right place, and she was so sweet about it. I have the best job in the world!!
