Mother's Day Weekend.

This Mother's Day was bitter sweet. 

Sweet because my in-laws came to visit for the weekend and help us prep the house for the move. 

Bitter because we will be moving farther away from them and other family. 

That part of moving is never easy. 

We got a lot of painting and work done. 

 We took a quick break to snap a picture. I am always forgetting to get in the picture, so this time I had Garran take one. 

 Of course I wanted a picture with Grandma and Grandpa and all the kiddos. 

 We really appreciated all the help Garran's parents gave. We painted and cleaned, hung blinds.. We got a lot done. 

And of course on Mother's day, I wanted a picture with me and my babies. They are all getting so big. Not really babies any more. But oh how I love them all. 

Happy Mother's Day 

to 

my mom, garran's mom, and all the other wonderful moms I know. 

Hope everyone had an amazing Mother's Day!!

Cullan's Mothers Day

I meant to post this, but have been a slacker.

Cullan made me this awesome card and sang me a song for Mother's Day.

I posted the song and forgot to post the card. 

So here it is.

Not all of his facts are accurate, but it is still adorable.

Mothers Day Song

Cullan came home from school on Friday with a Mother's Day Card and a song for me to sing. 

It was awesome!!

I am so thankful for video cameras and that I will get to look back and remember this!

More Mother's Day Post to come!!

Hope everyone had a wonderful Mother's Day!

Early Mothers Day

When I picked Kael up from school today he had a Mother's Day present for me.

I wanted to wait until Sunday to open it, but he could not wait. He wanted me to open it as soon as we got home. When I did there was a potted plant that we will have to water to help it grow. A cute picture of my little man and a wonderful card that stated that he loved me to pieces!!!

I loved it. 

What a great mothers day gift!!!

These are the things I look forward to. Cute hand made cards and adorable pictures of my littles!!

Picture Perfect!

i guess some things may never change. I can totally see my kids like this down the road!

My Mothers Day

i feel so loved today. 

i woke up to a bed full of hugs, kisses, knees and elbows!

I was the lucky recipient of a sponge bob square pants mothers day card and a special treat. 

then the kids made cinnamon rolls with daddy. 

after church i received to coupon books for all sorts of great things like hugs, car washes, dishes washed and kisses. 

now we are getting ready to relax while dinner cooks and enjoy each others company!!

I am truly blessed to have such fun kids and a wonderful husband!

Happy Mothers Day!!

I know that it is a day early but I am sure tomorrow will be hectic, so I wanted to go ahead and do this post tonight.

this picture below is one of my favorites of my mom and i. 

isn't it just a happy picture. i don't remember this moment, but I am glad that I have this picture so that I can see it.

Happy Mother's Day Mom!

Sorry we can not be there to celebrate it, but hope you have a wonderful day.

I also thought that I should recognize another mom on here, that I just realized I have not in passed years, but completely by accident. I don't know why it never occurred to me. 

Anyways, the other mom is my mother in law!

before i got married i had heard horror stories about mother in laws, but i got really lucky. mine is great! we have a good relationship and I always look forward to spending time with my in laws. we are sad that we can not be with my mother in law either on mothers day, but hope her day is just as great!!

Happy Mother's Day !!!

love this!!

i hope i can be like my grandmother at her age. this is my 90 year old grandmother and my cousin on mother's day. she asked David to take her for a ride on his new Harley. I love that she is so adventurous. she always has been. I am sad we were not there to see it in person!!

mothers day picnic~

i guess that it has become kind of a tradition that my dads side of the family gets together on mothers day and has a picnic. this year was fun because it was the first chance a lot of them had to meet briea. of course i was excited to show her off too. so we hopped into the van and took a little trip to visit the family for mothers day. this is my grandma pat holding briea for the first time!
little k-man on the swing.

the little girl on the left is kimber. she is my third cousin. she was born a day after briea. i have no clue what that makes her to briea but they sure are cute together..
this is my little cousin. my dad and briea.cullan enjoying some digging.
grandpa jeff and the kiddos making silly faces. well i think briea just wanted to sleep.

all in all we had a nice visit and a fun time. i know the kids had fun playing at the park and playing with all the kids.

hope everyone else had a happy mothers day!

Happy Mothers Day

Happy Mothers Day Mom!
