Mother's Day 2008

Happy Mother's Day from our family to your's!

Here's a little bit of what happened at our house this weekend....

Riley was feeling generous and decided to make me a nice mug of hot chocolate... she knows it's my favorite!

"Hey Mom!"

"Oops! We're all out!"

I only have myself to blame... remember the birthday cake she tried to make for me?

Well, I STILL don't have my cabinet doors back on my cabinets!
I have a goal: My mother-in-law (Debbie), my sister-in-law (Lainey), and my nephew (Colten), are coming to visit in a few weekends so I MUST have them back on before they get here... Well, before Colten gets here. There's no telling what kind on concoctions he and Riley might cook up!

This morning the Cherub Choir sang at church. The Cherub Choir is made up of kiddos ages 2-5. I am their fearless leader (Actually I'm quite scared of them. I just try not to let it show. Some of them can smell fear!!).
The kids did AMAZING! I was so proud of them... No photos, but I'll try to get a video posted... eventually!
It was a little bitter-sweet. This was Chandler's last performance with the Cherub Choir. Once the kids start Kindergarten they move up to the Children's Choir. :(

Lunch at O' Charley's and then home to RELAX! :)

I received some great cards, some much desired items for my kitchen, and a new watch. :)

I realized as it was nearing bedtime that I didn't have a single photo of me and my girls so we had a QUICK photo shoot.

Me and Chan. Please ignore the spots all over the mirror!! GROSS!

Me and a VERY HAPPY Riley just before bedtime!

All in all a GREAT DAY!
Hope your Mother's Day was just as great (if not better!). :)

great pictures jen.
i don't know why i never take pictures on mother's day.
(oh wait, probably b/c i'm the only one who takes pics, and it's a little difficult to take them of yourself!)

glad to here you had a good mother's day, you are most certainly deserving! :)

I hope you know that when I have kids in 48 years, I'm going to be calling you all the time to get advice. No, seriously.

So, you've had to start buying your own watches huh? Guess cause I'm not recylcling watches from ex's anymore :)

Darn, I wish I had thought to have my husband take a picture of me and the girls! This will have to be a new tradition around our house.

Your girls are little dolls!

We're back from FL, so I'll be posting again. Good to be back.

And a very Happy Mothers Day to all of you too from our family. We had a great day and it like you did too. Love the ideas of the photos. We don't take them either, yes probably because I am the one at the back of the camera.lol
Keep smiling and healthy
